DESCRIPTION

     fractalpooluser is a Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool) pool user (PU) for the
     FractalGenerator service. It uses a Qt-based X11 GUI.

ARGUMENTS

The following options are available:

-identifier=PU_identifier
Sets a fixed PU identifier. Handle with care!

-poolhandle=pool_handle
Sets the PH to a non-default value; otherwise, the default setting is
"FractalGeneratorPool".

Service Parameters:

-configdir=directory
Sets a directory to look for FGP config files. From all FGP files (pattern:
*.fgp) in this directory, random files are selected for the calculation of
requests.

-caption=window_title
Sets the output window title.

-width=pixels
Sets the width of the window and the images to be calculated.

-height=pixels
Sets the height of the window and the images to be calculated.

-threads=threads
Sets the number of parallel sessions to use for processing of each image.

-sendtimeout=milliseconds
Sets the transmission timeout.

-recvtimeout=milliseconds
Sets the receive timeout.

-interimagetime=seconds
Sets the pause time between two image calculations in seconds.

-imagestorageprefix=file_name_prefix
Sets a file name prefix for saving the calculated images. If set, each
successfully calculated image is stored to the given location as PNG file,
with a 6-digit file number added.

-colormarks
Turns on color change on session failover.

-nocolormarks
Turns off color change on session failover.

-sessions
Turns on color change between different sessions.

-nosessions
Turns off color change between different sessions.

ASAP Protocol Parameters:

-registrar=address:port
Adds a static PR entry into the Registrar Table. It is possible to add
multiple entries.

-registrarannouncetimeout=milliseconds
Sets the timeout for ASAP announces via multicast.

-registrarconnecttimeout=milliseconds
Sets the timeout for ASAP connection establishment.

-registrarconnectmaxtrials=trials
Sets the maximum number of ASAP connection establishment trials.

-registrarrequesttimeout=milliseconds
Sets the timeout for ASAP requests.

-registrarresponsetimeout=milliseconds
Sets the timeout for waiting to receive ASAP responses.

-registrarrequestmaxtrials=trials
Sets the maximum number of ASAP request trials.

Component Status Protocol (CSP) Parameters:

-cspserver=address:port
Sets the address of a CSP monitor server. By default, the content of the
environment variable CSP_SERVER is used. If not defined, no CSP status
reports will be sent.

-cspinterval=milliseconds
Sets the interval for the CSP status updates in milliseconds. By default,
the content of the environment variable CSP_INTERVAL is used. If not
defined, no CSP status reports will be sent.

Logging Parameters:

-logappend=filename
Write logging output to a file (default is stdout); output will be appended
to given file.

-logcolor=on|off
Turns ANSI colorization of the logging output on or off.

-logfile=filename
Write logging output to a file (default is stdout); given file will be
overwritten.

-loglevel=0-9
Sets the logging verbosity from 0 (none) to 9 (very verbose). It is
recommended to use at least a value of 2 to see possibly important error
messages and warnings.

ENVIRONMENT

     fractalpooluser uses the environment variables CSP_SERVER and CSP_INTERVAL to define a CSP
     server to send reports to in the specified interval.
