1.6. Remote Visualization Client Environment Variables

In certain circumstances you may have to change certain settings that are controlled by environment variables. Table 1.1: Remote Visualization Client Environment Variables lists all of the environment variables that are specific to the Fluent Remote Visualization Client and their uses. You can define the environment variables in the Environment tab of the Fluent Launcher.

Table 1.1: Remote Visualization Client Environment Variables

Variable

Input & Use

REMOTING_CONNECTION_TIME_OUT

time in seconds

It is used to define the time out for requests from client to server and vice versa. The default value is 180 seconds (3 minutes). If a request is not completed by the server within this time, then the client will show an error.

REMOTING_LOG_FILE

<folder path>/<file name> for example, E:/Testing/remoting/example_log

It is used to define the log file path. If this variable is defined, then the client and server will write log files.

REMOTING_MAX_MESSAGE_SIZE

size in bytes

It is used to define the maximum message size that the client and server can exchange.

REMOTING_PORTS

<start port>/portspan=<num>

It is used to define the port range. If this variable is defined, then the remote client will try to start the server within the specified port range.

REMOTING_SERVER_ADDRESS

Public facing IP address

It is used to define the server's IP address. If this variable is defined, the remote client will not identify the IP address; it will use the provided address instead. The address will be written to the log file. Define this environment variable if the machine has multiple IP addresses or if the Remote Client is unable to resolve the IP address.
