X2200 iLom and Watchdog timer...

I have setup our x2200 and have the iLom working great for most things.
I have two specific problems going on with it though....
First, sometimes the iLom just stops responding, I can't SSH, use the WebGUI or anything. I'm using the same mgmt. port for the global zones IP, which I can still log into. Once I log into the domain, I can reboot the server, or power it down and then the iLom starts responding again. Any ideas?
Second issue is that if I turn on the watchdog timer in the BIOS it will reset or power cycle (depending on which setting I setup) once the timer expires, even if booted into the OS. This is very disturbing, because I can't use the watchdog unless I want to reboot every five minutes. :/
Now I am installing the minimal Solaris 10 SUNWreq cluster, but I'm adding a number of packages back into the jumpstart session, including TCPWrappers. Is there a specific package that needs to be installed as part of the Solaris base install in order for the Watchdog to determine if the OS is up and running or should I open a hardware trouble ticket on the new server?
Thanks!
Information
Error in the ILOM Error Log:

Did you ever figure this out? I have been having the same problem since receiving my x2200 M2 a couple of months ago. I'm running the latest OpenSolaris and the watchdog timer will reboot continuously until it seems to give up and then just stops rebooting. I have a feeling it also disables the watchdog timer at that point.
Another frightening thing this server does is leave the power off, even when bios is configured to power on after a power failure!

Problem with DAQmx and Real Time PCI-7041/6040E.

Problem with DAQmx and Real Time PCI-7041/6040E.
I have a problem with the Real Time card PCI-7041/6040E, I think it is properly installed because my software run with the traditional NI-DAQ. When I try to use the new DAQmx to acquire one signal, Labview doesn't see any device for de DAQ card 6040E.
Information, I work on Windows XP and LabView v7.0.0 (NIDAQ RT v7.0.0, NI-Serial RT v2.5.2, NI-VISA v3.0.1 and NI-Watchdog v2.0.0).
Could Labview RT run with new DAQmx ?
What can I do to use DAQmx with PCI-7041/6040E?
Thanks for your help !

Why do I get Error-22011 when I try to run a HW Watchdog Timer vi?

I am trying to use the HW watchdog timer vi's on the RT functions palette (Watchdog Configure.vi and Watchdog Clear.vi). Error-22011 is generated when Watchdog Open.vi is called (a subvi to Watchdog Configure.vi).
"Explain Error" gives this result:
"NI-Watchdog: The watchdog hardware you requested is already in use, or has been permanently locked."
I get this error every time I execute Watchdog Configure.vi even if the host computer and network controller have just been rebooted. There is no place to specify or lock/unlock the hardware (that I can find). I'm using Windows XP, LV8.5, and the FP2010 controller.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes, I have NI-Watchdog 2.1.5 installed on my FP.
In fact, I figured out what the Error-22011 problem was all about and I'm almost too embarrassed to say. I had Watchdog Configure.vi inside a while loop... so only the first iteration would be error free and for every iteration after that, the hardware would be "already in use". Hence, Error-22011.
I've made it over that hurdle, but I'm still having problems.
Now,I have both Watchdog Configure.vi and Watchdog Clear.vi outside the while loop and I put Watchdog Whack.vi inside the while loop (mainly to monitor the watchdog status output). I also wired the occurrence output of Watchdog Configure.vi to a second while loop in which there is a wait for occurrence.vi wired to a boolean indicator.
If I disconnect the ethernet cable while this vi is running, the program pauses and I get a Labview generated message informing me of a lost connection however, there is no occurrence generated and the watchdog stays in "running" status.
Apparently, I've misunderstood how to implement the watchdog vi's and I'll need someone to set me straight.
Is there anyone who can help?
Thanks,
pmac

I have read that the watchdog issue is related to version 7.4. Do I need to go back to 7.3 or is there a newer version that addresses this?
TIA,

Hi Eric,
Upgrade to 7.6.130.0 as 7.4.100.0 is initial release of 7.4.x & had lots of bugs.

Nexcom SBC watchdog timer

Hi All,
Has anybody had any success in communicating with the watchdog timer (WDT) built into industrial single board computers?
I am using a Nexcom Peak 777 which seems to have a fairly standard WDT. Apparently it just needs a configuration written to a control register on 0xF2, so I have done this using the Port Out VI (WinXP), but it does not seem to be doing anything. I would expect if I had the config set up correctly after the specified timeout period the PC would reset and it does not.
There is no control at all of the WDT in the BIOS.
Any ideas?
Thanks
nrp
CLA

Hi,
Looking at page 33 of the manual for the 777 it appears you have to first set this register before applying:
MOV al, 0h //set to 0
AND al, 10000000b //Set timeout value (1-255)
OR al, 10000000b //activate this setting
MOV dx, F2h //set the above to the register
Are you doing these to setup the board?
Kind Regards,
Applications Engineer

Watchdog timer driver

hi
As i want to implement hardware watch dog timer in wince 7.0, my platform i.mx6 support the hardware watchdog .
i want to control that watchdog from my application. like init , refresh etc. . i have to implement the interrupt also manes when the timeout happens interrupt should be triggered and in interrupt i need to reset the hardware .
for that should i need to write the driver ? or there is other method to achieve this . is there any sample available ?
Thanks
bipul pandey

Bipul,
The watchdog timer code is already present in i.MX6 BSP
~\SRC\OAL\OALLIB\timer.c
~\OAL\TIMER\SYSTIMER_MPPVTTMR\timer.c
As Bruce has suggested either you write a simple stream interface driver and give access to application using read/write/IOControl etc
Or Reause the OAL code using KernelIOControl
Check some example code in your BSP like :
~\SRC\TEST\PMTEST\PmTest\pmtest.cpp

If you're trying to connect to a Bonjour server on the remote network, that won't work over a layer 3 VPN. Use something like Hamachi or one of the SSH-tunnelling Bonjour proxy apps for that.

Appending and add time stamp at a time........

Hi all,
i am working on a scenario...
it is file based..no mapping and bpm can be used.
I need to pick up file through xi and append it and put in the target with time stamp to it.
we can achieve this if mapping or bpm is allowed.....
But,in file processing we can use only one option at a time.....
I found a way:
scenario one: files will be appened and kept in a temparory folder
using another scenario we will pick up the appeneded file and add time stamp and keep in target structure...
but i dont think this is advisable...
please suggest me any other ways to achieve this...(can run operating system command be helpfull??)
thanks in advance..
Regards,
Kiran.

HI,
Yes you are right, Appending and adding Time Stamp will not be possible simultaneously.
Refer - this could help you
Dynamic Filename with TimeStamp
Dynamic Filename with TimeStamp
/people/william.li/blog/2006/04/18/dynamic-configuration-of-some-communication-channel-parameters-using-message-mapping
But some how you have to use mapping for it. Then if its allowed to use the mapping then as you have suggested, should have to go for two scenarios. No alternative,
Probably also you can try with Customized Adapter Module for this.
Thanks

You don't need to upgrade your software. But if you're struggling with Spry, IMO you should cut your losses and switch to something better for the longrun.
If you have a budget to work with, I highly recommend Project Seven's Pop-Menu Magic 3. It's easy to use in DW CS4, 5, 6 or CC. More importantly, it's bullet proof and works in all devices.

If you don't have a budget to work with, you can roll your own menus with jQuery plugins. A bit more effort on your part, but they perform better than Spry.

Reading log file and calculating time between

If someone could help me with this one, I would be very grateful.
I have a log file and I need to search a string that contains a start time and end time (eg. <time="11:10:58.000+000">). When I have these two values, I need to measure the time that has been elapsed between these two (from start to end).

$Path="C:\Times.log"
remove-item $Path
Add-Content $Path '<time="11:10:58.000+000">'
Add-Content $Path '<time="12:10:58.000+000">'
Add-Content $Path '<time="13:10:58.000+000">'
Add-Content $Path '<time="15:13:38.000+000">'
Add-Content $Path '<time="16:10:58.000+000">'
Add-Content $Path '<time="17:08:28.000+000">'
$File=Get-Content $Path
$StartTime=$Null
$EndTime=$Null
$ElapsedTime = $Null
ForEach ($Line in $File)
If ($Line.Contains("time="))
$Position = $Line.IndexOf("time=")
$TimeStr =$Line.SubString($Position+6,8)
IF ($StartTime -EQ $Null)
$StartTime = $TimeStr -As [System.TimeSpan]
Else
$EndTime = $TimeStr -As [System.TimeSpan]
$ElapsedTime = $EndTime.Subtract($StartTime)
"StartTime=$StartTime EndTime=$EndTime ElapsedTime=$ElapsedTime"
$StartTime = $Null
Gives this output
StartTime=11:10:58 EndTime=12:10:58 ElapsedTime=01:00:00
StartTime=13:10:58 EndTime=15:13:38 ElapsedTime=02:02:40
StartTime=16:10:58 EndTime=17:08:28 ElapsedTime=00:57:30

Editing Loop Start and End times via automation / MIDI controllers?

I'm trying to play a sample in EXS24 and have the Sample Start, Loop Start and End times manipulated over the course of the song. I've tried to open up the EXS sample editor, click on the numerical value of the Loop Start, and then attempt to Learn Automation. All it does is assign the knob for the instrument Volume Level. Is there any way to do this? It's basically how an Akai S612 works: http://www.vintagesynth.com/akai/s612.shtml
I switched gears and tried it also with Battery, and there's a way to map the Start and End times in there, but it's not seeming to work as I've intended. I can't seem to make the loops move as they should and there's ways to use up to 4 loops, but not a way to target each loop's start and end points via separate controllers.
I could use my S-612 [and probably will], but in moments where I don't have one available, I'd love to find a solution to this.
Thanks,

My mac froze in an application so I shut it down by powering off with button, now when I try to turn it on I have a grey screen with Apple loge and the timer swirling but it doesn't get past this, please help!

I Shut down my Mac by holding in the power button after my iMac froze and now when I try to turn it back it on all I get is the grey screen with Apple loge and the timer and doesn't get any further. I have tried the diagnostic test but nothing was found.

Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
To restart an unresponsive computer, press and hold the power button for a few seconds until the power shuts off, then release, wait a few more seconds, and press it again briefly.
Step 1
The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
Step 2
If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
Step 3
Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
Step 4
If a desktop Mac hangs at a plain gray screen with a movable cursor, the keyboard may not be recognized. Press and hold the button on the side of an Apple wireless keyboard to make it discoverable. If need be, replace or recharge the batteries. If you're using a USB keyboard connected to a hub, connect it to a built-in port.
Step 5
If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
Step 6
Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
Step 7
If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 11. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
Step 8
Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
Step 9
If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.
Step 10
Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
Step 11
Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
Step 12
This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
Step 13
If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
