IAF Watch – Monitoring running adapter status
The IAF Watch tool allows one to monitor the live status of a running adapter. This is available as iaf_watch (on UNIX) or iaf_watch.exe (on Windows).
The usage information for this tool, when run with the --help option, is as follows:
Usage: iaf_watch [ options ]
Where options include:
-h | --help This message
-n | --hostname <host> Connect to an IAF on <host>
-p | --port <port> IAF is listening on <port>
-i | --interval <ms> Poll every <ms> milliseconds
-f | --filename <file> Write to <file> instead of to standard out
-r | --raw Raw (i.e. parser friendly) output
-t | --title Add header to output (Raw mode only)
-o | --once Poll once then exit
-v | --verbose Be more verbose
-u | --utf8 Write output in utf8
-V | --version Print program version info
By default the tool will collect status from the adapter once per second and display this in a human-readable form. Note that if the adapter is listening for control connections on a non-standard port (specified with the -–port option to the iaf program), you must pass the same port number to iaf_watch.
Note: You should only use ASCII characters to specify the name of a host.
