Distributed Sysetm Manager 2010 hangs

[viScience]

Sometimes on startup the DSM can take a very very long time to come up.  Could be as long as 15-30minutes.

I believe this has to do with having large historical chart open previously.  For some reason the DSM gets bogged down under these circumstances and it just appears to hang.  Usually it does come alive after a long time.

This is very unusual behavior. Would you mind sharing the specs of your computer?

Have you tried deleting your list of remote devices and re-detecting them?

Sounds like a database conflict that the program is trying to load on startup and is messing up.

Just an idea. You need to give more symptoms and specifics to try to narrow down the problem.

What devices are you trying to monitor?

Are all the devices on the local subnet?

There are 2 cRIO's and one Windows PC on the local subnet.  I never have any problem if all of the historical charts are removed.  It is usually bad when someone left one or more of the historical charts running when then closed the DSM.  That is when it might take 15m to restart again.  Otherwise it only takes seconds.
