WeatherLink Live stability

Post by mcrossley »

Just thought I'd post this out of interest.

My live CMX has been running for 13 days since I last updated it, the WLL stats...

Multicast packets received OK = 100.00% (0/449482)

450 thousand data packets without a single missed one, not bad!

Mine has running at phys: 525 MB - virt: 647 MB at the moment with an uptime of 13 days, 5 hours.

The pi4 is running at 935 MB of memory used (50%) so I'll be restarting CMX soon. :bash: Two weeks is the norm for me.

How much free memory do you have on your server without CMX running?

Loads of memory then, is it a pi 4?


I just restarted my CMX instance, the network stats from the WLL were still 100% - 0 dropped of 633,790 data messages.

If it is a memory issue then the logs may not show anything as the process just gets terminated by the OS. The console log should show an "out of memory" error.

If you can only run for two days then something does seem to be wrong, so yes post your logs and I'll take a look.

is mono 5.18.0.240 the only package available for your pi4 OS?

mono is now upto v6.8.x for most linux distros seems your version is eating memory.
