Server parameters
iXOS-JUKEMAN 2.2 User Manual Pre.12/97 123
4.11 Server parameters
You can change the server behavior using several parameters, though the
default values are usually quite sensible. server.cfg override default
values and command options override default values and server.cfg
values.
A few parameters can be changed dynamically while the server is run-
ning. See “Change server parameters” on page 130.
4.11.1 Overview of server parameters
Dynamic parameters
autodc=1
This parameter controls the caching of the directory structure of a disk
(see “The directory cache” on page 36). If a disk is inserted into a drive,
iXOS-JUKEMAN checks if the root directory. If it is not in the cache then
autodc controls the further behavior. If set to 0, no caching is performed.
If set to 1, caching is performed only if a permanet hard disk directory
cache is configured. When set to 2, iXOS-JUKEMAN will cache the entire
directory structure, even if only a RAM cache is configured. The dynamic
caching performed due to file system requests is not affected by this pa-
rameter.
blanks=0
After changing a disk or issuing a ‘test’ command iXOS-JUKEMAN tries to
determine the type of disk. For empty CD-Rs or disks which are not ISO
9660-conforming or non-finalized disks written with the incremental file
system (see “Burning disks incrementally” on page 151) this test cannot
be completed successfully with many reader driver. In these cases the
disk will be tested in a recorder drive to determine the disk type.
The parameter blanks can be used to speed up the test procedure. If set
to 0, disks are first tested in reader drives (faster than recorders), and
eventually in recorders a second time. If set to 1, disks are always tested
in recorder drives, if available. If set to 2, no testing is performed and the
disks are assumed to be blank.
