Using the COACH Tracing Feature
As partner of the
IST-COACH project,
Lucent Technologies has contributed to OpenCCM by the
addition of a tracing feature that can be used to monitor
applications at the communication level.
Compiling the COACH Testing Framework
In order to use the tracing feature, it first needs to be compiled:
-
If you have a compiled OpenCCM, then execute this build target
in the directory you unzipped OpenCCM:
On Unix systems:
$ build.sh coach_testing
or on Windows systems:
$ build.bat coach_testing
-
Let's note that you can build OpenCCM and the COACH Testing Framework
in a single process calling:
On Unix systems:
$ build.sh coach
or on Windows systems:
$ build.bat coach
This target allows the building of the whole OpenCCM - COACH
software, including any contribution within this project.
Starting and Stopping the COACH Tracing Server
These script commands allow manipulation of the software:
Script | Description |
coach_tracing_start |
Starts the COACH Tracing Server and instantiates a GUI
that will display intercepted communications
on tracing-enabled ComponentServers.
WARNING: This server needs a running
CosNaming Service.
|
coach_tracing_stop |
Stops the COACH Tracing Server, and destroys the GUI.
|
Once run, the server displays its monitoring GUI. Here is a
snapshot taken while monitoring
OpenCCM's demo1.
