The Analysis Manager has a set directory structure, configurable environment variables and other tunable parameters which are discussed in this chapter.

The Analysis Manager directory structure is displayed below. The main installation directory is shown as an environment variable, $P3_HOME =<installation_directory>. Typically this would be or /msc/patran200x or something similar.

where:

<org> (optional) is an additional organizational group and shares the same directory tree as default yet will have its own unique set of configuration files. See Organization Environment Variables.

<arch> is one of:

There may be more than one <arch> directory in a filesystem. Architecture types that are not applicable to your installation may be deleted to reduce disk space usage; however, all machine architecture types that will be accessed by the Analysis Manager must be kept. Each one of the executables under the bin directory is described in Analysis Manager Programs.

All configuration files are explained in detail in Examples of Configuration Files. These include org.cfg, host.cfg, disk.cfg, lsf.cfg, and nqs.cfg.

Organization groups and their uses are described in Organization Environment Variables.

The QueMgr.log file is created when a Queue Manager daemon is started and does not exist until this time and, therefore, will not exist in the above directory structure unitl after the initial installation. Use of this file is described in Starting the Queue/Remote Managers respectively. The file QueMgr.rdb is also created when a Queue Manager daemon is started and is a database containing job specific statistics of every job ever submitted through the Queue Manager for that particular set of configuration file or <org>. The contents of this file can be viewed on Unix platforms using the Job_Viewer executable.

Items in the bin and exe directories are scripts to enable easier access to the main programs. These scripts make sure that the proper environment variables are set before invoking the particular program that reside in $P3_HOME/p3manager_files/bin/<arch>.
