GL Lost Orders Copied

The GL Lost Orders plug-in compares the lirebase log before and after the GL and exchange execute order-book reset.

This automatic process will highlight any discrepancies caused by the reset process by running a “night” scan of the orders before the reset and a “day” scan of the orders after the reset.

View Copied

This plugin produces a single view showing the status of any lost orders, in the screenshot below the night-scan will activate in 59 seconds and that the day scan will happen 3 minutes later.

gl-lostorders2

In the screenshot below we can see 20 valid orders have been lost between the night and day scan with the lost orders clearly shown in the grid.

names Copied

This section associates textual names with the IDs of the GL users.

Mandatory: No

names > data > users Copied

This section defines a user/router community. In most cases there need only be one users section, containing all the users and all the routers. However where there is more than one user with the same ID connecting from different routers (for example on a broker site) they must be separated into different user sections.

names > data > users > router Copied

This specifies the numeric ID of a router and freeform name to describe the router. There can be more than one user entry per users section. Both the name and ID of the router are mandatory.

Mandatory: No

names > data > users > user Copied

This specifies the numeric ID of a user and freeform name to describe the user. There can be more than one user entry per users section. Both the name and ID of the user are mandatory.

Mandatory: No

namesFile Copied

This section specifies the path to a file containing the associations between textual names and GL router IDs. The format of this file is described in Names.ini configuration. If the names section has been defined, then the data in the names section will be saved in the file specified in this section in the format described.

Mandatory: No

Default: ./names.ini

p3LogDir Copied

When this is set, this plug-in will check in this directory for a file named p3_yyyymmdd.log, where yyyymmdd is replaced with the current date. This file will then be read to find the P3 router ID.

Mandatory: No

Default: .

namedUsersOnly Copied

When set to true, will only show the users.ini/passwd.ini users that are also defined in names.ini.

Mandatory: No

Default: false

uncommentedUsersOnly Copied

When set to TRUE only passwd.ini users without a minus preceding the user-id are shown.

Mandatory: No

Default: false

Names.ini configuration Copied

This is an optional reference file that associates textual names with the IDs of the GL routers and GL users. This file can be used instead of defining the data in the names section of the plugin.

The file should always contain one or more [USERS] section.

For example:

[USERS]
ROUTER_ID=17000, Internal 1
ROUTER_ID=17003, Internal 2
USER_ID=232, Simone Jones
USER_ID=231, Charles Stout
[END]

[USERS]
ROUTER_ID=13000, Internal 3
USER_ID = 130, Nina Simmons
USER_ID= 140, William Gower
[END]

USERS is a section that defines user / router communities.

Note

The ROUTER_ID that the users connect from must also be defined in this section in addition to the USER_IDs. More than one router can be defined.

In most cases it is only necessary to define one [Names] section with all known routers and users. However where there is more than one user with the same ID connecting from different routers (for example on a broker site) they must be separated into different router communities.

GL Sets SLC Copied

The Sets SLC plug-in is a specialised monitor for SLC connectivity to the London (SETS) or Johannesburg (JSE) stock exchanges that utilises the TCP/IP connections.

View Copied

This plug-in produces a single view as shown below:

gl-sets-slc2

Plugin configuration Copied

The following parameters can be configured for this plug-in:

multicastSessions Copied

Boolean, set to true if multicast is being used.

This plug-in does not track multicast traffic and if the multicastSessions parameter is set then the columns IsSubscribing, StartSubscribeTime and Last Activity are hidden.

Mandatory: No

Default: False

logFile Copied

The full path to the SLC P1 log file.

e.g. /slc/log/p1jse*.log

The log file actually defaults to p1xxx_yyyymmdd.log, however it is recommended that the * wild card is used, as above, as this will always track the latest version of the P1 log file, even if it spans two working days.

Mandatory:Yes

Default: p1xxx_yyyymmdd.log

iniFile Copied

The full path to the SLC ini file.

e.g. /slc/conf/slcjse.ini

Mandatory: Yes

multipleDataFiles Copied

Use this section of multiple data files (one per session) are used - otherwise use the single dataFile parameter.

When multiple data files are used, Idle Polls are not recorded in the data files. Thus the columns IpollMsgCount and TotalMsgCount are hidden.

Mandatory: No

multipleDataFiles > dataFiles Copied

In the case where multiple data files are used, one per session. The datafile will be substitute with the session names extracted from the ini file. E.g. Instead of “/slc/data/20*.data” for the datafile you would expect to see “/slc/data/20*,.data”.

Mandatory: Yes

multipleDataFiles > iriFile Copied

Location of the IRI data file.

Mandatory: Yes

dataFile Copied

The full path to the SLC data file. This is mandatory if multipleDataFiles is not used.

e.g. /slc/data/20*.data

It is recommended that the * wild card is used, as above, as this will always track the latest version of the data file.

Mandatory: No

GL SLC Copied

Dynamic Exchange View Copied

Unlike most Geneos plug-ins view are generated dynamically. Each time an SLC log file is read the new exchanges will be added as new views and the views that already exist will be updated. Each exchange view shows the scanDate to indicate the day that it was read.

Note

The scanDate will only be displayed after the whole SLC file is read. This allows the user to match up any Dataview to a file via the scanDate (this will match the log file’s last modified time).

Headline Legend

Name Description
scanDate Allows the user to match up any Dataview to a file via the scanDate (this will match the log file's last modified time).

Mandatory: No

Default: ./p1_*.log

GL SLE Copied

The Geneos GL SLE plug-in is part of a suite of modules that monitors aspects of the GL trading system.

This monitors the local SLE sending order instructions to an exchange, and receiving acknowledgements from them. It monitors the current and worst delays, number of instructions sent, and number of order instructions that have not been acknowledged.

It also handles most world exchanges, see exchange > type in the Technical Reference section for details.

Plugin commands Copied

The GL SLE plug-in has an additional internal Accept command. This command enables you to “accept” an unacknowledged order row so that it is removed from the dataview. For more information on this command, see Gateway Commands.

GL SLE configuration Copied

The plug-in depends on information supplied by the SLE process. The log level of the SLE process is crucial, and the SLE must log individual order transmissions and acknowledgements. This can be achieved by setting the tracelevel parameter in the [LOG] section of the slev5.ini file to a value of 70 or greater. A restart of the SLE process will be required for this value to take effect.

Increasing the log level of the SLE will increase the size of the log file that the SLE generates. ITRS recommends that the free disk space on this disk partition and the physical size of the log file be monitored to avoid possible issues. This may be achieved with the DISK and FKM plugins.

The GL-SLE plug-in handles millisecond resolution in SLEv5. In order to enable millisecond reporting in the P10 log files, set the following in the [LOG] section of the slev5.ini file:

millisecond = 1
