                [-output=file_name] [-quiet] [-maxretry=trials]
                [-retrydelay=milliseconds] [-runid=description]
                [-transmittimeout=milliseconds]
                [-keepaliveinterval=milliseconds]
                [-keepalivetimeout=milliseconds]
                [-cspinterval=milliseconds] [-cspserver=address:port]
                [-logappend=filename] [-logcolor=on|off]
                [-logfile=filename] [-loglevel=0-9]

DESCRIPTION

scriptingclient is a Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool) pool user (PU) for the scripting service. The purpose of this service is to distribute
input data to a scripting PE, execute a script doing some useful work on the input data and returning output data. For example, this service can
be used for distributed simulation processing.

ARGUMENTS

The following options are available:

-poolhandle=pool_handle: Sets the PH to a non-default value; otherwise, the default setting is "ScriptingPool".
Service Parameters:: -input=file_name
Sets the name of the input file to upload to the PE.
-output=file_name: Sets the name of the output file to write the download
from the PE to.
-quiet Turns on quiet mode, i.e. only few information is: printed.
-maxretry=trials: Maximum number of retries upon errors on the remote site. The error counter only increments when the remote-side
script returns a non-zero error code. When the error
limit is reached, the received output file will be downloaded for debugging purposes.
-retrydelay=milliseconds: Sets the retry delay upon failover in milliseconds.
-runid=description: Add the given description to all log lines of the scripting service PU operation. This can be useful when multiple PUs are running simultaneously.
-transmittimeout=milliseconds: Sets the transmission timeout in milliseconds.
-keepaliveinterval=milliseconds: Sets the keep-alive interval in milliseconds.
-keepalivetimeout=milliseconds: Sets the keep-alive timeout in milliseconds.
Component Status Protocol (CSP) Parameters:: -cspinterval=milliseconds
Sets the interval for the CSP status updates in milliseconds. By default, the content of the environment variable CSP_INTERVAL is used. If not defined, no CSP status
reports will be sent.
-cspserver=address:port: Sets the address of a CSP monitor server. By default, the content of the environment variable CSP_SERVER is used.
If not defined, no CSP status reports will be sent.
Logging Parameters:: -logappend=filename
Write logging output to a file (default is stdout); output will be appended to given file.
-logcolor=on|off: Turns ANSI colorization of the logging output on or off.
-logfile=filename: Write logging output to a file (default is stdout); given file will be overwritten.
-loglevel=0-9: Sets the logging verbosity from 0 (none) to 9 (very verbose). It is recommended to use at least a value of 2 to see possibly important error messages and warnings.

ENVIRONMENT

scriptingclient uses the environment variables CSP_SERVER and CSP_INTERVAL to define a CSP server to send reports to in the specified interval.

DIAGNOSTICS

If loglevel>0, log messages will be printed to stdout or into a specified log file.
