Description

The tables are loaded loaded locally into memory and the shared memory partition is used in read only mode to obtain pointer information and access to fields in other tables used by the program.

Updates to accelerator parameters is performed by writing messages to dbman. Information on the state of database parameters is processed from messages received from dbman.

See num_conf(5) for a description of the table format.

This program is a daemon and should NOT be started in the background.

Arguments

--size_tbl <fn>

Pathname to a configuration table used to set the sizes of the NUMLIST and NUMPOINT tables in the program.

--show_tbl

If this argument is present the contents of the numeric tables are printed to stderr each time they are loaded.

--no_daemon

If this argument is present then don’t start as a daemon. stdout and stdin are left open and the program may be killed by SIGINT.

--verbose=<n>

This sets the level of logging information. The number is optional but if

provided it must include the

If no argument is provided the default level is 1.
0 - work normally

1 - print various bits of information

--help

Prints the help message to stderr and exit.

Notes

Fast list adds and removes are not propagated by NUMmngr2.

For example, if you are using NUMmngr2 to scale a current read from a voltage read you can not pass a request (possibly by assigning to meter) to add the current read to the fast I/O list and have NUMmngr2 send the request onward to the I/O manager providing the I/O for the voltage read.
