curious log-file growing on rt-target

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi community,

I have a pxi-realtime-system that logs automatically multicast events from our network and creates a log file that becomes larger every minute.

The file is named packetsIn.log and appears under /ni-rt/system/ethernet.

The content of the file is

Source Mac: ...

Dest Mac: ...

PacketSize: ...

The mac-adresses that appear in the file are not the one of my controller but of some switches or multicast-adresses in our network.

If you delete the file, it appears again some seconds after that action. The file also grows, if no labview-application is running on the system.

 

Has anyone noticed a similar behaviour? What could cause this file-creation?

 

We're using LabVIEW 2009 SP1 and the curious is, that it only appears at one of our controllers.

 

Hope someone could help

Hi Gibbi,

 

please try to open the ni-rt.ini and set following entry:

 

[DEBUG] 
RTPacketParsingEnbled=FALSE 

 

After that the file should stop growing.

 

Best Regards,

 

Lam
