RT System Session Stops Updating

Would anyone have an idea why an RT System Session would stop updating only the Total Physical Memory and Free Memory properties?  I have a (Very complex) system which reports its memory and disk.  This morning, I noticed it had stopped updating only the memory values (Disk values were updating properly).  So I wrote this:

To see if what I was seeing was real.  This also showed no updates to the physical memory values.  When I restarted the RT controller (PXIe-8135RT, LV2016 RT), it started to update properly (This has been working for almost two years without issue).

 

Very weird...

 

Thanks!

Was the physical memory frozen for long periods of time? Could it be that the total physical memory was not changing during that time period?

No, I can't imagine that would be the case.  My system seemed to be operating fine otherwise during this situation.  I could start and stop acquisition tasks, record to disk, generate logs, receive and transmit CCC/CVT, etc...

 

Normally, when I do those operations, I watch the RT memory to make sure there's no slow leakage (Slow downward ramp in memory availability).  The second to second memory generally fluctuates a little, especially when starting and stopping DAQmx tasks.  During this issue though, no memory changes reported at all.  Only once I rebooted the RT system did it start reporting again.

 

I'm going to keep a watch out for this.  It's a bit disconcerting...

Same thing happened to me.  This code worked for years.  Today it stopped.
