String (file-name)
Not specified
Purpose
The DirectivesFile parameter specifies the name and location of the directives file used by the JADE Monitor background application.
The directives file specifies the sets of statistics to be recorded and details of periodic sampling.
The JADE Monitor background application does nothing if a directives file containing the statistics to be recorded has not yet been saved to the path and file specified in the DirectivesFile parameter in the [JadeMonitorBackground] section (that is, if the directives file is empty, it does not exist, or it is not specified, the monitor application is launched and then waits for user input), and the monitor log file states that the default directives.txt file is the one in the bin directory.
Hint
To specify a directives file to be used by the JADE Monitor background application, use the Save Directives File As … command from the File menu in the JADE Monitor program. Select the directory specified by the DirectivesFile parameter in the [JadeMonitorBackground] section.
Parameter is read when …
The JADE Monitor background application starts.
