Starting the simulator
To start the simulator, invoke the start script from the command-line:
$ ./scenario-simulator.sh Starting JVM... Ready to start Please type commands... (type "help" <ENTER> for command help) >
(This takes us to the command prompt.)
You can also pass in command scripts on the command line:
$ ./scenario-simulator.sh -f in-examples/3sims/config/loopback/setup-sim1.commands -f in-examples/3sims/config/setup-examples-sim1.commands
(Control returns to the command console once the scripts have completed.)
By default, logging will be written to logs/simulator.log. Use the -l <filename> option to write to another file in the logs directory. This is useful when running multiple simulator instances, to avoid writing to the same log file. For example, to start 2 simulators which write to logs/sim1.log and logs/sim2.log:
$ ./scenario-simulator.sh -l sim1.log $ ./scenario-simulator.sh -l sim2.log
See the Logging section of the Simulator Commands page for details about logging configuration.
Stopping the simulator
To stop the simulator, use the quit command or the force-quit command:
"quit": Quits the simulator process (after cleaning up, or the given timeout)
Usage: quit [<timeout-ms>]
Example: quit 10000
"force-quit": Quits the simulator process immediately, without finishing calls
or cleaning up resources
Usage: force-quit (no args)
