8.4 Administering GINA applications

8.4.1 TP monitor

While an application is active, the administrator can decide to query information on the sta- tus and load or to interrupt the sequence. He/she uses the dtp script that is also created by the conﬁguration generator to perform these activities. The administrator then gets a local dialog interface to the application by means of which he/she can execute control func- tions, for example the controlled termination of the application as well as the attachment and reattachment of resources. In this context, it is important to consider the possibility of customizing applications to changing environments, such as the connection of new part- ners or new functions.

A description of the complete range of functions can be found in the openUTM administra- tion User Guide [27].

8.4.2 Cyclical timer

When a transaction-monitored application is started, T-ORB activates a cyclical timer that activates monitoring of the alarms (cf. section 8.4.3 on page 200) at speciﬁc intervals. The interval is speciﬁed by the CYCLICTIME(d,h,m,s) parameter of the T-ORB generator config when the conﬁguration is being created. The T-ORB generator config generates the gina.config ﬁle for each transaction-monitored application in which the interval for the cyclical timer is stored (see Figure 40).

CTL1 0 0 10 0 // corresponds to CYCLICTIME(0,0,10,0)

Figure 40 Time interval of the cyclical timer in gina.config

If the interval is to be changed while the transaction-monitored application is running, the gina.config ﬁle must be modiﬁed using a suitable editor (e.g. vi) and then the DNEWCYCA administration command activated using the administration facility (see section 8.4.1 on page 199).
