Instance CFG View

The Instance Cfg view of FAIMSpy displays the configuration and current operational details. To see these details, select Instance Cfg for a particular instance on the FAIM Instances tree.

Fields of interest include:

• Maxhist: The number of hours of online history FAIM maintains.

  Note: Maxhist differs from the maximum history option specified on the engine because the Maxhist value contains the files necessary to handle the file rollover and backtracks.

• Archsize: The default archive file size as specified on the engine

• Rtp_file_nr: The current RTP file number – the file where data is currently being stored.

• Maxalarm: The maximum number of alarms that FAIM stores, as specified on the engine.

• timeStart: The wallclock (UNIX) time when simulation was started or IC was restored. For details on how time synchronization is performed, see The Principals of Operation section.

• timeSim: The total execution time (seconds) for the running simulation.

Below these fields in the Instance Cfg are the index records for each RTP database file (maxhist files). The index records give timestamps for the start and end of each RTP database file.
