-
-RMR_ASYNC_CONN
-
- Allows the async connection mode to be turned off (by
- setting the value to 0). When set to 1, or missing from
- the environment, RMR will invoke the connection interface
- in the transport mechanism using the non-blocking (async)
- mode. This will likely result in many "soft failures"
- (retry) until the connection is established, but allows
- the application to continue unimpeded should the
- connection be slow to set up.
-
-
-RMR_BIND_IF
-
- This provides the interface that RMR will bind listen
- ports to, allowing for a single interface to be used
- rather than listening across all interfaces. This should
- be the IP address assigned to the interface that RMR
- should listen on, and if not defined RMR will listen on
- all interfaces.
-
-
-RMR_CTL_PORT
-
- This variable defines the port that RMR should open for
- communications with Route Manager, and other RMR control
- applications. If not defined, the port 4561 is assumed.
-
- Previously, the RMR_RTG_SVC (route table generator service
- port) was used to define this port. However, a future
- version of Route Manager will require RMR to connect and
- request tables, thus that variable is now used to supply
- the Route Manager's well-known address and port.
-
- To maintain backwards compatibility with the older Route
- Manager versions, the presence of this variable in the
- environment will shift RMR's behaviour with respect to the
- default value used when RMR_RTG_SVC is **not** defined.
-
- When RMR_CTL_PORT is **defined:** RMR assumes that Route
- Manager requires RMR to connect and request table updates
- is made, and the default well-known address for Route
- manager is used (routemgr:4561).
-
- When RMR_CTL_PORT is **undefined:** RMR assumes that Route
- Manager will connect and push table updates, thus the
- default listen port (4561) is used.
-
- To avoid any possible misinterpretation and/or incorrect
- assumptions on the part of RMR, it is recommended that
- both the RMR_CTL_PORT and RMR_RTG_SVC be defined. In the
- case where both variables are defined, RMR will behave
- exactly as is communicated with the variable's values.
-
-
-RMR_RTG_SVC
-
- The value of this variable depends on the Route Manager in
- use.
-
- When the Route Manager is expecting to connect to an xAPP
- and push route tables, this variable must indicate the
- port which RMR should use to listen for these connections.
-
- When the Route Manager is expecting RMR to connect and
- request a table update during initialisation, the variable
- should be the host of the Route Manager process.
-
- The RMR_CTL_PORT variable (added with the support of
- sending table update requests to Route manager), controls
- the behaviour if this variable is not set. See the
- description of that variable for details.
-
-
-RMR_HR_LOG
-
- By default RMR writes messages to standard error
- (incorrectly referred to as log messages) in human
- readable format. If this environment variable is set to 0,
- the format of standard error messages might be written in
- some format not easily read by humans. If missing, a value
- of 1 is assumed.
-
-
-RMR_LOG_VLEVEL
-
- This is a numeric value which corresponds to the verbosity
- level used to limit messages written to standard error.
- The lower the number the less chatty RMR functions are
- during execution. The following is the current
- relationship between the value set on this variable and
- the messages written:
-
-
-0
-
- Off; no messages of any sort are written.
-
-
-1
-
- Only critical messages are written (default if this
- variable does not exist)
-
-
-2
-
- Errors and all messages written with a lower value.
-
-
-3
-
- Warnings and all messages written with a lower value.
-
-
-4
-
- Informational and all messages written with a lower
- value.
-
-
-5
-
- Debugging mode -- all messages written, however this
- requires RMR to have been compiled with debugging
- support enabled.
-
-
-
-RMR_RTG_ISRAW
-
- **Deprecated.** Should be set to 1 if the route table
- generator is sending "plain" messages (not using RMR to
- send messages), 0 if the RTG is using RMR to send. The
- default is 1 as we don't expect the RTG to use RMR.
-
- This variable is only recognised when using the NNG
- transport library as it is not possible to support NNG
- "raw" communications with other transport libraries. It is
- also necessary to match the value of this variable with
- the capabilities of the Route Manager; at some point in
- the future RMR will assume that all Route Manager messages
- will arrive via an RMR connection and will ignore this
- variable.
-
-RMR_SEED_RT
-
- This is used to supply a static route table which can be
- used for debugging, testing, or if no route table
- generator process is being used to supply the route table.
- If not defined, no static table is used and RMR will not
- report *ready* until a table is received. The static route
- table may contain both the route table (between newrt
- start and end records), and the MEID map (between meid_map
- start and end records).
-
-RMR_SRC_ID
-
- This is either the name or IP address which is placed into
- outbound messages as the message source. This will used
- when an RMR based application uses the rmr_rts_msg()
- function to return a response to the sender. If not
- supplied RMR will use the hostname which in some container
- environments might not be routable.
-
- The value of this variable is also used for Route Manager
- messages which are sent via an RMR connection.
-
-RMR_VCTL_FILE
-
- This supplies the name of a verbosity control file. The
- core RMR functions do not produce messages unless there is
- a critical failure. However, the route table collection
- thread, not a part of the main message processing
- component, can write additional messages to standard
- error. If this variable is set, RMR will extract the
- verbosity level for these messages (0 is silent) from the
- first line of the file. Changes to the file are detected
- and thus the level can be changed dynamically, however RMR
- will only suss out this variable during initialisation, so
- it is impossible to enable verbosity after startup.
-
-RMR_WARNINGS
-
- If set to 1, RMR will write some warnings which are
- non-performance impacting. If the variable is not defined,
- or set to 0, RMR will not write these additional warnings.
