<title>Installation Process </title>
<p>This chapter describes how to install <seealso marker="cosNotificationApp">cosNotificationApp</seealso>
in an Erlang Environment.
</p>
<section>
<title>Preparation</title>
<p>Before starting the installation process for cosNotification,
the application Orber must be running.</p>
</section>
<section>
<title>Configuration</title>
<p>When using the Notification Service the <c>cosNotification</c> application
first must be installed using <c>cosNotificationApp:install()</c> or
<c>cosNotificationApp:install(Seconds)</c>, followed by <c>cosNotificationApp:start()</c>.</p>
<p>Then the <seealso marker="CosNotifyChannelAdmin_EventChannelFactory">Event Channel Factory</seealso>
must be started:</p>
<list type="bulleted">
<item><c>cosNotificationApp:start_global_factory()</c> - starts and returns a reference to a factory using default configuration parameters.
This operation should be used for a multi-node Orber.</item>
<item><c>cosNotificationApp:start_global_factory(Options)</c> - starts and returns a reference to a factory using given configuration parameters.
This operation should be used for a multi-node Orber.</item>
<item><c>cosNotificationApp:start_factory()</c> - starts and returns a reference to a factory using default configuration parameters.</item>
<item><c>cosNotificationApp:start_factory(Options)</c> - starts and returns a reference to a factory using given configuration parameters.</item>
</list>
<p>The following options exist:</p>
<list type="bulleted">
<item><c>{pullInterval, Seconds}</c> - determine how often Proxy Pull
Consumers will check for new events with the client application. The
default value is 20 seconds.</item>
<item><c>{filterOp, OperationType}</c> - determine which type of Administrator
objects should be started, i.e., <c>'OR_OP'</c> or <c>'AND_OP'</c>.
The default value is <c>'OR_OP'</c>.</item>
<item><c>{timeService, TimeServiceObj | 'undefined'}</c> - to be able to use
Start and/or Stop QoS this option must be used. See the function <c>start_time_service/2</c>
in the <c>cosTime</c> application. The default value is <c>'undefined'</c>.</item>
<item><c>{filterOp, OperationType}</c> - determine which type of Administrator
objects should be started, i.e., <c>'OR_OP'</c> or <c>'AND_OP'</c>.
The default value is <c>'OR_OP'</c>.</item>
<item><c>{gcTime, Seconds}</c> - this option determines how often, for example, proxies
will garbage collect expired events. The default value is 60.</item>
<item><c>{gcLimit, Amount}</c> - determines how many events will be stored before, for
example, proxies will garbage collect expired events. The default value is 50. This
option is tightly coupled with the QoS property <c>MaxEventsPerConsumer</c>, i.e.,
the <c>gcLimit</c> should be less than <c>MaxEventsPerConsumer</c> and greater than 0.</item>
</list>
<p>It is possible to define a set of global configuration parameters:</p>
<table>
<row>
<cell align="center" valign="middle"><em>Key</em></cell>
<cell align="center" valign="middle"><em>Range</em></cell>
<cell align="center" valign="middle"><em>Default</em></cell>

<cell align="left" valign="middle">integer() > interval_events</cell>
<cell align="left" valign="middle">3000000 milliseconds</cell>
</row>
<tcaption>Global Configuration Parameters</tcaption>
</table>
<p><em>Comments on the table 'Global Configuration Parameters':</em></p>
<taglist>
<tag><em>type_check</em></tag>
<item>Determine if supplied IOR:s shall be type checked, i.e. invoking
corba_object:is_a/2, or not.</item>
<tag><em>notify</em></tag>
<item>The given value shall point to an existing module exporting
a function (arity 1) called <em>terminated</em>. This operation
is invoked when a proxy terminates and the argument is a list
containing <c>{proxy, IOR}</c>, <c>{client, IOR}</c> and
<c>{reason, term()}</c>. The return value is ignored.</item>
<tag><em>max_events</em></tag>
<item>If a supplier proxy has not been able to push events to a
consumer and the queue exceeds this limit, then the proxy will
terminate. For this option to have any effect, the
<c>EventReliability</c> and <c>ConnectionReliability</c> QoS
parameters must be set to <c>Persistent</c>. For more information,
see also the <seealso marker="ch_QoS">QoS</seealso> chapter.</item>
<tag><em>interval_events</em></tag>
<item>The same requirements as for <c>max_events</c>. When a supplier
proxy detects problems when trying to push events, this parameter
determines how often it should try to call the consumer.</item>
<tag><em>timeout_events</em></tag>
<item>The same requirements as for <c>max_events</c>. If the
proxy has not been able to contact the consumer and this
time-limit is reached, then the proxy will terminate.</item>
</taglist>
<p>The Factory is now ready to use. For a more detailed description see
<seealso marker="ch_example">Examples</seealso>.</p>
