elog_event_watch

Purpose:

This program sits and listens for the elog_push and elog_pull events.  These events are set within the elogbook library of the CyFlex code when elogbook entries are created or a request to view elogbook data is made.  When these events are received, script files are called to either push data to the elogbook central database or pull data from the elogbook central database.  This program should be started within the /cell/go.scp file after the error_mgr program is started.

Enter:

elog_event_watch [num_minutes_between_pulls]

Where:

num_minutes_between_pulls

Optional. Specify the number of minutes between pulls of data from the central database. The default is 5 minutes.

Example:

elog_event_watch &
The above spawns the elog_event_watch program to wait for the pull and push events.  The pulls will happen every 5 minutes.

elog_event_watch 3 &
The above spawns the elog_event_watch program to wait for the pull and push events.  The pulls will happen every 3 minutes.

Notes:

This program should be started within the go.scp file after the error_mgr is started.
