Since many of us are using older computers for our servers that have PATA hard drives I was wondering if anyone has installed a replacement SSD and if so what has worked? I imagine that the drives are transparent and should have no OS problems? Here is a link to one that looks like it would work - http://www.crucial.com/store/ssd.aspx?gclid=CLadwPrT97sCFeFlOgodYwYA0g&cpe=p... 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio
I'm looking for a way to capture and e-mail repeater useage statistics. In searching through app_rpt.c, I found the following.
From app_rpt.c
myrpt->dailytxtime = 0; myrpt->totaltxtime = 0; myrpt->dailykeyups = 0; myrpt->totalkeyups = 0; myrpt->dailykerchunks = 0; myrpt->totalkerchunks = 0; myrpt->dailyexecdcommands = 0; myrpt->totalexecdcommands = 0; My next questions is what is the form of an rpt.conf stanza that could utilize these variables, capturing these statistics? Is there a way of saving these statistics to a log file, or perhaps a way to send by e-mail from the repeater to my e-mail address? Thanks, Bob kk6ecm
Bob, Not exactly sure what your wanting but the following at the linux command prompt will save the stats to a file - asterisk -rx "rpt stats 27225" > 27225stats cat 27225stats ************************ NODE 27225 STATISTICS ************************* Selected system state............................: 0 Signal on input..................................: NO System...........................................: ENABLED Parrot Mode......................................: DISABLED Scheduler........................................: ENABLED Tail Time........................................: STANDARD Time out timer...................................: ENABLED Incoming connections.............................: ENABLED Time out timer state.............................: RESET Time outs since system initialization............: 0 Identifier state.................................: CLEAN Kerchunks today..................................: 0 Kerchunks since system initialization............: 949 Keyups today.....................................: 4 Keyups since system initialization...............: 15773 DTMF commands today..............................: 0 DTMF commands since system initialization........: 89 Last DTMF command executed.......................: 329971 TX time today....................................: 00:01:53.172 TX time since system initialization..............: 70:17:18.962 Uptime...........................................: 456:34:43 Nodes currently connected to us..................: 28190, 29971, 28795 Autopatch........................................: ENABLED Autopatch state..................................: DOWN Autopatch called number..........................: N/A Reverse patch/IAXRPT connected...................: DOWN User linking commands............................: ENABLED User functions...................................: ENABLED You could make up a script to do this and then email the file somewhere. It could be done periodically by a cron job. My lsnodes program also displays this status to a web page - http://crompton.com/hamradio/allstar/lsnodes.html 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio From: kk6ecm@gmail.com To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Date: Sat, 11 Jan 2014 20:46:26 -0800 Subject: [App_rpt-users] app_rpt statistics I’m looking for a way to capture and e-mail repeater useage statistics.

Doug I would be extremely leery about the use of Crucial SSD¹s. While they have been a strong product line in the past, their quality control of late has translated into products that do not work. Most recently they have been accused of flooding the market with product that they know to be defective. Buyer beware! We got lured lured in by their defective product, and spent many wasted hours, doing problem analysis and OS rebuilds. When we dug in further through research on the net, and confirmed what is printed above, we abandoned Crucial and quickly moved to another product. At our remote site we are using OCZ (x2) and SANDISK. Both have been great performers. We are running Centos on all SSD¹s. (DNS/Web/Mail, DSTAR and Allstar).

I will 2nd Keith's comments. I run thru a rash of Crucial SATA SSD's in the 128GB (more or less) class that seem to fail after a few weeks of use. VERY annoying!!! On Sun, 12 Jan 2014, Keith Goobie wrote:

OK or not so OK on the Crucial SSD's. I suspect an adapater like this - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA1EF1924311 and a standard SATA SSD might be the best way to go. No point in buying old technology. 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio
I agree. Get a SATA adapter of some sort and abandon PATA. Then, you've got direct forward compatibility to newer SATA motherboards, too, if you need to replace the MB. A PCI adapter might be an useful option, too. Something like these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816124013 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815124006 73, David KB4FXC On Sun, 12 Jan 2014, Doug Crompton wrote:

Brag List! I've been running a node for 2 years using a 8GB Innodisk SATADOM D150QV SLC CFDISK satadom. It's not suppose to be a good idea using these devices. I also use only SSD Samsung drives with TRIM Support but I don't know that linux supports TRIM???? http://www.mini-box.com/Storage-Devices From: Keith Goobie <keith@goobie.org> To: Doug Crompton <doug@crompton.com>; "app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org" <app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org> Sent: Sunday, January 12, 2014 7:48 AM Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] PATA SSD drives Doug I would be extremely leery about the use of Crucial SSD’s.
