Add crontab entry for AARTFAAC uniboard firmware reload #24

Closed hsuyeep closed 9 years ago

hsuyeep commented 9 years ago

AARTFAAC uniboards can reset to factory defaults on a station powerdown. This implies that no data will be transmitted to the GPU correlator. Since the powerdown can be random, we install a cron entry to a script which reloads the AARTFAAC images if needed.

The script is: on lcu-aartfaac:/home/acontrol/SVN/Aartfaac/trunk/Software/sh/check_unb_aartfaac_images.sh

The cron entry is made in the name of user acontrol: acontrol@lcu-aartfaac(10:33:19):sh$ crontab -l

DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.
