I am opensim user and simulator operator. I would like to share my notes so its usefull to others. :
VOCABULARY: my understanding of the following terms.
GRID: One ore more simulator (SIM) supported by one or more robust.exe instance. OAR: Archiving file for region. PARCEL a subdivision of a region minimum size is 4mx4m= 16 meter square REGION a 256mx256m = 65,536 meters square area in opensim SIMULATOR: also call SIM one opensim.exe instance running supporting one ore more region(s). STANDALONE: The simulator and the supporting services are all run from one instance of opensim.exe VARREGION: a region with variable dimension. At time of writing limited to square values of multiples of regions (ex. 4x4 = 16 region area) .
OAR. I advocate the use of OAR for backup similarly to any other software file extension. I believe that creators in opensim shall be able to save their work as easily within their region as creating a document in word. For now you can do that with an object inworld and a opensim script command call osConsoleCommand(string command). That script command is high treat level as define in by opensim. Therefor it has to be authorize by simulator operator for parcel owner in the region simulator as follow: Allow_osConsoleCommand = PARCEL_OWNER
