Viewing Request Status

The View→Requests menu item from the main window brings up a box that lists the active requests in the MAINVIEW Data Server.

Each request to record a field has a row in this display. The same field might be in more than one request. This can happen if it is being sent to different recording exits or if it has multiple schedules.

Since the Setup pane only allows editing of requests directed at active servers, the request status view provides a right-click menu with a delete option so that you can delete requests made to inactive servers.

The right click menu also allows you to edit requests and schedules. Editing one or more requests loads the setup window and selects the fields in question. This can take a minute if the setup window is not open.

The columns in this window are as follows:

Context - The context defined in CASDEF that contains the product that contains the view.

System - The image in which the product is running.

Server - The PAS which contains the product.

Product - The product being sampled.

View - The name of the MAINVIEW view containing the field.

Field - The internal name of the field being sampled. These names can be found by selecting Properties from the right-click menu for the fields.

Exit - Which recording exit is to be used.

Rows - The minimum number of rows to be recorded.

Schedule - The name of the schedule to control recording times.

Last Recorded - When this field was last passed to the recording exit.
