[VxWorks PXI] How to ensure that all updates in the buffer of data has been written to disk before you stop?

Hello

I have a RT SMU-8135 that records events and data from various sources in CSV files and custom binaries. I'm looking for a way to protect against data loss during a normal shutdown.

Windows or Linux, I can programatically close the application and the operating system; It's enough to dump all the data disc and turn the power off when it is safe. However, as far as I know, there is no way to programmatically close a VxWorks target (e.g. http://forums.ni.com/t5/Real-Time-Measurement-and/Shutdown-of-cRIO-or-sbRIO-via-software-command/td-... )

The best method I can think of right now is shut down properly the application of RT, wait "long enough" for buffers to clear and resources to be released, and then press the power button. The challenge is, I can't get good reviews when the application is fully closed.

Is a more reliable way to do this? (Or am I overthinking things?)

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hey JKSH,

A number of things. First of all, are you sure that the SMU-8135RT is running VxWorks? The link below suggests that it is running Phar Lap ETS. On this basis, see the second link below, which tell about a similar question regarding the Phar Lap. The short of it is that it is not a software based on RT Linux targets non stop. Essentially, if you want to make sure that things are not going when you turn off, you will need to do something as printed in the console as it is ready to be put off tension after you have completed the activities, or have an LED start or stop flashing. So far, it doesn't seem there's a clear way to determine when all other activities have finished, but it seems that it is always "safe" stop the target at any time (safe for the target, but this does not guarantee that all activity is performed).

What operating system is my controller real time running and why?

  • Change hard drives where the files stored, how to ensure that no problems with the catalogue

    I replaced the 3 TB drive (and readers of backup related) who hold all the image files on my Mac Pro with a 5 TB drive.

    The player has only the image on her files. The catalog and previews remain in the folder of images on my main system drive.  I formatted the new drive in an external hard drive enclosure, then used Super Duper to copy the image of the old 3 TB HD files to new hard disk 5 TB. Now, I'm ready to install the new HD 5 to in the computer and the catalog of links to it, but want to make sure you do it correctly.

    This player has 81 000 image files, catalogued in 15 "buckets", each "bucket" with about 15 cases of work, so I obviously want to make sure that I don't have to tie all these files by hand.

    What is the best method to do this, so I have no problem with the catalog know the new location of the files?

    Instructions are here: Adobe Lightroom - find folders and files moved or missing connect the parent (as shown in Figure 4) folder, and then all subfolders will be also connected. If I understand your use of the word 'bucket' (do you really mean "parent folder"?), then you will need to do this for each of the 15 buckets.

    It would be much easier if you had a 'bucket' or parent folder and many subfolders and sub-sub-folders.

  • during an update lots of my profile folder has been put in a folder on the desktop marked the old data. How to restore this data file

    During a bet to update, automatic update of windows has started and some how much my profile data has been removed and stored in a file on the desktop. There is a simple and easy way to restore this folder from the current firefox?

    You can use the contents of the Old Firefox Data folder to "roll back" the refresh, but this involves several steps. It's probably even faster than the recovery of individual files and load those into your new profile.

    Check in the folder 'Old data Firefox' update adds a folder with a random semi name on your desktop. If there is only one, that probably has your old settings and Add-ons. If there is more than one, you'll want to work with one who has been updated recently.

    Once you have identified the profile folder, that you want to restore, here is my "old profile resurrection suggested procedure:

    Overview

    Here are the steps described in more detail below:

    1. Create a new Firefox profile
    2. Delete all of this profile folder
    3. Copy in all of the old profile folder

    Create a new profile for Firefox (Windows)

    Exit Firefox completely and start up in the Profile Manager by pasting the following in the Windows search, or the Run dialog box by pressing ENTER:

    firefox.exe -P
    

    Note: any time want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog box.

    Click on the button create a profile, give it a name like OldSettings and skip the option to change the location of the folder. Select the new profile from the dialog box, and then start Firefox.

    Open the new profile folder in Windows Explorer

    Firefox in the new profile should look like a new installation of the plant. Open the troubleshooting information page by using either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • Menu help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    In the first table, click on the view file"" button. Firefox will launch your new profile folder in Windows Explorer.

    This folder open, switch back to Firefox and get out by using either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    Firefox is closed, the profile folder must be front and Center, or you can activate it by using the taskbar.

    Copy old data instead of new

    In this new profile folder you just popped open - NOT the one on your desktop - select all content (you can use Ctrl + a) and delete (you can press Delete on the keyboard).

    Leave this window open, open or switch to your folder of old data of Firefox. Consult your old profile folder. At this level, you should see a folder named bookmarkbackups among other things.

    Select all (Ctrl + a) and copy (or right-click > copy or Ctrl + c).

    Switch to the empty profile folder in another window and paste (or right-click > paste or Ctrl + v). This may take a few minutes because some files are large.

    Launch Firefox

    Firefox should start in this 'new' profile with the old resurrected profile data. Success?

    How can I use Office Update without the Office CD? On the microsoft Web site, I clicked the options which mean that I would not need the CD (which was not provided with the laptop), but poartway through the service pack update, I get a request for the Office 2000 Professional CD.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    Did you mean an office or a note?
    As far as I know the a Note is part of the recovery Image and the CD is not supplied with the unit. In addition, Toshiba units are not delivered with the Office 2000 software.

    However, have you checked to aid either in Word update function?

    You will find an option called verification of updates
