In a typical state +dir you can find the following files: + +'last_used_msisdn.state':: + Contains last used msisdn number, which is automatically increased every + time osmo-gsm-tester needs to assign a new subscriber in a test. +'lock':: + Lock file used to implement a mutual exclusion zone around the + 'reserved_resources.state' file. +'reserved_resources.state':: + File containing a set of reserved resources by any number of + osmo-gsm-tester instances. Each osmo-gsm-tester instance is responsible + to clear its resources from the list once it is done using them and are + no longer reserved. + If you would like to set up several separate configurations (not typical), note that the 'state_dir' is used to reserve resources, which only works when all configurations that share resources also use the same 'state_dir'. +This way, several concurrent users of osmo-gsm-tester (ie. several +osmo-gsm-tester processes running in parallel) can run without interfering with +each other (e.g. using same ARFCN, same IP or same ofono modem path). + [[suites_dir]] ==== 'suites_dir' -- To view, visit https://gerrit.osmocom.org/4669 To unsubscribe, visit https://gerrit.osmocom.org/settings Gerrit-MessageType: merged Gerrit-Change-Id: Ie12e3933747a4e698de59ff9ac57281e9f261d3d Gerrit-PatchSet: 4 Gerrit-Project: osmo-gsm-manuals Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Owner: Pau Espin Pedrol <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Harald Welte <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Jenkins Builder Gerrit-Reviewer: Neels Hofmeyr <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Pau Espin Pedrol <[email protected]>
