The execution then takes place on one or more selected -.IR cpu (4) -resources. -.PP -Once started, -.IR session -presents a heirarchical view of currently registered resources (such as -.IR ns (1)) -which export a Styx (see -.IR intro (5)) -namespace. The top level displays the type of resource e.g. -.BR 'CPU resource' , -whilst the second level shows the name of each individual resource. Descending futher down the tree will reveal the attributes of the selected resource. To mount a resource and see the namespace it exports, click mouse button 3 on the resource name. The view will switch to a split pane view displaying the resource namespace with directories listed on the left and all files in the current directory displayed on the right. -.PP -Clicking mouse button 3 on a file or directory will cause it to be added to the -.I command -or -.I namespace -list at the bottom of the window. Mouse button 3 is again used on items in either of these lists to display a menu containing the name of the resource on which they are located as well as the option to remove them. The -.B Cmd -and -.B Ns -buttons located at the top of the window toggle the view between the selected commands and the selected namespace. The -.B Resources -button returns to the initial view containing the currently registered resources and -.B Refresh -updates the list in case any resources have been added or removed. - -.SS The Command List -This contains a list of all commands to be executed. Any arguments may be entered by clicking on the gap after -.IR args : -and typing into the box. Commands will be executed in order from top (first) to bottom (last). - -.SS The Namespace List -This contains a list of all the directories to be imported in order to create the local namespace of the selected -.IR cpu (4) -resource(s). By default, several directories will be imported from the local machine. To select these, click button 3 on -.B import local namespace -and (un)check the directories as required. To toggle this option on and off, click button 1 on -.B import local namespace. -These default directories are required by many commands for normal execution so it is recommended that they are not disabled unless they are definitely not needed. Importing a directory of the same name as one of the default directories will automatically overwrite the default. Therefore, it is not necessary to disable a default directory if the same name is to be imported from elsewhere. -.PP -A given directory can only be imported once so it is not possible, for example, to import -.B /usr/inferno -from two different machines. -.I Session -will automatically import the directories containing each of the selected commands but any others required must be explicitly imported. For example: If one of the commands is: -.PP -.EX - /usr/inferno/runme.dis -f /appl/lib -.EE -.PP -.I Session -will import -.B /usr/inferno/ -but -.B /appl/lib -would have to be specified in the namespace list. -.SS Execution -Once the command and namespace lists have been configured, click -.B Ok -on the -.I Session -window. This will bring up the -.IR query (1) -window containing a list of the available -.IR cpu (4) -resources. To select one or more of these for execution, click on the name with button 3 and it will be added to the list. If a specific -.IR cpu (4) -resource is not required, click button 3 on -.B CPU resource -and select the number you require by clicking on the number following the list entry and dragging the mouse up or down. -.PP -Once the required -.IR cpu (4) -resources have been selected, click -.B Ok -and execution will commence. - - -.SH SOURCE -.B /appl/grid/session.b -.br -.B /appl/grid/ns.b -.br -.B /appl/grid/monitor.b -.br -.B /appl/grid/query.b -.br -.B /appl/grid/lib/browse.b -.br -.B /appl/grid/lib/srvbrowse.b - -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.IR query (1), -.IR registries (2) -.IR ns (1), -.IR cpu (4), -.IR registry (4) |
