Hi All,

 

I am following the same procedure to do the autosave for V3 db records & V4 PVA records. My IOC looks similar to  https://github.com/epics-base/exampleCPP/tree/master/database.  Autosave lines in st.cmd are

 

set_requestfile_path("$(TOP)/autoSaverestore")

 

set_savefile_path("$(TOP)/autoSaverestore")

set_pass0_restoreFile("autosaverecord.sav")

set_pass1_restoreFile("autosaverecord.sav")

 

cd "${TOP}/iocBoot/${IOC}"

iocInit

create_monitor_set("autosaverecord.req", 5)

 

The output on epics console has error:

save_restore: connect failed for channel 'PVA_Double_Test'

 

 

“autosaverecord.req” file has both V3 & V4 record & has contents

PVA_Double_Test

CA_Double_Test

 

*****************************************************

autosaverecord.sav file after autosave gives below contents

# autosave R5.3 Automatically generated - DO NOT MODIFY - 200902-193433
! 1 channel(s) not connected - or not all gets were successful
#PVA_Double_Test Search Issued

CA_Double_Test 8.9
<END>

 

 

So, the bottom line is autosave works for V3 type record but fails to do for V4 type PVA record. Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.

 

Many Thanks
