• Auto reload clients

If you select this option, FahMon will automatically reload the monitored clients at the desired frequency.

• Reload interval (mn)

Reload all clients with this time interval

• Use experimental reload system

Checks the file modification times every 10 seconds and only proceeds to reload the client if the log has changed. This reduces processing load, and allows more "real-time" updates of client states. It is current experimental as it can cause some clients to fail to update at all if they are being accessed over a network. Windows (SAMBA) shares seem to be affected by this as the modification times sometimes don't seem to update as they should. NFS shares aren't affected.

• Display ETA as ...

This allows you to change the format used to display the ETA.

• Calculate PPD based on

Allows you to choose which algorithm is used to display the PPD in the main window. The default behaviour is “All frames” which uses the average frame times collected across WUs from this project. “Last frame only” gives the instantaneous PPD, “Last 3 frames” calculates an average PPD based on a rolling 3 frame average. “Effective rate” calculates a frame time based on how long the WU has actually been running and takes into account client downtime.

• Ignore asynchronous clocks

Prevents clients whose local clocks are not perfectly synced with the monitoring machines clock from turning orange/yellow. When this option is enabled, the clients turn blue and a message is noted in the log.
