Search Order
When rendering a RIB with the prman executable, the system will search for a stats configuration file named “stats.ini” in the search path defined by the "/stats/configpath" setting in rendermn.ini. The search path can be overridden using the RMAN_STATS_CONFIG_PATH environment variable, and the -statsconfig command line option to prman allows prman allows a further override of both the path and the filename.
...
| Order | Method | Setting | Content | Default |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Override “stats.ini” filename, optionally override search path. | prman -statsconfig <path+filename> | Filename with optional path (absolute or relative). If no path is given it will use the search path as defined by the environment variable or rendermn.ini. | stats.ini |
| 2 | Override the rendermn.ini default search path |
| Colon separated search path. | none |
| 3 | Default search path from rendermn.ini | /stats/configpath | Colon-separated search path. | .:${RMANTREE}/etc |
- If prman is not provided a config file name via the -statsconfig command-line option then the default configuration filename "stats.ini" will be used.
- If no path is given to the -statsconfig command-line option then the search path defined by the environment variable is used, or the default in rendermn.ini if the environment variable is not set.
Examples
Using the example configuration file from the File Format section above, the command line might include:
...

DCCs will not pick up the default from rendermn.ini and generally cannot override the stats config filename and so must rely on the environment variable for configuration file search path control. See DCC Configuration below for details. |
