Figure 30: GXCC components with X11 server as remote computer
In this example GXCC runs on a CentricStor computer. The data is made available by the
VLP InfoBroker. All GXCC output data is sent to the remote computer (X11 server) and
there displayed on the screen.
In the case of a low-speed data connection between CentricStor and the remote computer
the large data quantities to be transferred result in performance problems.
Consequently a configuration without X11 server provides a better solution:
