 All {{{ippToPsps}}} programs register with the {{{ippToPsps}}} database upon start-up, adding a row in the [wiki:ippToPsps_Database#Theclientstable clients table]. While running, all programs routinely check the {{{ippToPsps}}} database to check for changes in the config, or to see if they should be paused or stopped.
 
+the config argument can be the name of any config in the [config table of the database] or it can be 'all'. This will mean that the program in question will cycle through all 'active' configs. This is handy for programs like {{{metrics.py}}} or {{{cleanup.py}}}; instead of having an intance of these programs per config, one instance can cycle through them all.

 All programs catch Ctrl-C for clean exiting, and all programs write a log to stdout and some to file, the location of which is set in the [browser:trunk/ippToPsps/config/settings.xml settings file].
