Hi all,

Following on from my first question a couple weeks ago about the

feasibility of setting up EPICS for a small lab, I've provisioned a

Debian 11 VM and gotten EPICS Base set up. While I wait for the arrival

of the Modbus-based sensors I plan to use EPICS to read, I thought I'd

set up iocStats

(https://www.slac.stanford.edu/grp/ssrl/spear/epics/site/devIocStats/)

so I have some real world values to play with - CPU usage, etc.

Following various guides I've managed to compile the example application

with iocStats module support. However, I don't actually have any of the

records provided by iocStats configured, and that's where I've gotten

stuck. What I'd really like to see are examples of databases others have

made that make use of the various records provided by iocStats (if such

an example is provided with iocStats itself, I missed it). Ultimately I

want to be able to caget my VM's CPU load, so I can play with archiving

and plotting it later. Google has failed me so I thought I'd ask here.

So, is anyone willing to share their iocStats configurations with me?

Cheers,
Sean
