Diagnostic Buffer Overflow?

alecg

I'm wondering if anyone can comment on how NX processors handle diagnostic logging with respect to file size, if any.

What I'm asking is:
I use the DirecTV IP Module.
It errors out in the diagnostic (Socket Connection Errors) constantly, but actually works quite well for my purposes.
Is that error data being logged and filling up a container that will eventually bog down the processor, or am I just being paranoid?

Last I checked it was a rolling buffer (on the NI series). I doubt they changed it.

I've never had the internal logging cause a problem from saving too much data, though I have sometimes wished it saved more.

If you do your own custom logging to a file, you will have to worry about this.

EDIT - I just checked our testing NX and it shows the same 1000 item limit.

That's the info I needed!

Thanks for straightening that out!
