Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Hi

 

I have setup area detector to control the Basler gigE cameras we have, I pulled the latest tag for all the necessary modules (asyn, ADCore, ADAravis, etc). The setup works fine, I can control the camera and acquire images even at the maximum FPS which is 32. Now I configured the IOC to control 2 cameras, one with exposure time 10 s and one with 32 FPS and left it overnight few days ago. I got to the PC the day after and the RAM and swap were full but the IOC was working, I managed to login to the PC later and launched the GUI and I found strange values in the Buffers section of ADAravis.adl:

 

PoolUsedBuffers: 22

PoolAllocBuffers: 24664

PoolFreeBuffers: 24642

PoolMaxMem: 0 MB

PoolUsedMem: 28904.3

 

The PC has is running CentOS 7 and has 8GB RAM. I re-ran the IOC yesterday and for now it is working fine. What could be wrong with my setup? The network is all gigabit Ethernet and jumbo frames are enabled.

 

Thanks

Abdalla.
