PTV Optima Micro is designed as a distributed system.
Every Optima Micro Worker server:
- Contributes to processing a micro-simulation request.
- Produces local log files.
- Forwards the log files to Optima Micro Message Broker.
PTV Optima Micro provides a log monitor that can collect all distributed log messages and dump them into a single log.
The monitor can be installed:
- Directly on one Optima Micro Worker server (innately connected to the Broker).
- On any other Windows machine that can be connected to the Broker.
The monitor is not designed for 24/7 operation, but only to help log analysis and troubleshooting activities.
