8. VPC Utilities

8.1 VpcMerger

Like the "spc_merger" program of the previous SPC files, the program

VpcMerger makes it possible to accumulate individual VPC files to a single

VPM file per machine per day. This process allows the following advantages:

• clearly improved use of disc space, because with single, very small files on

NTFS drives, at least 4 KB per file is always allocated; on FAT drives the

waste of space is to an extent even larger

• distinctly quicker evaluation

• improved clarity in the daily directories.

The program can be started as a normal process, for example from the

Autostart file folder from Windows; also, it can be installed as a service, to

function independently from any user registration.

8.1.1 Setup and first start

The VpcMerger should be called up in the work directory

“C:\VISCOM\PROJECT\VPC\DATA“; this can be done by setting a

corresponding link. The configurations file “VpcMerger.ini“ is stored in this

directory; the site for the data to be processed can still be reconfigured later.
