This brings up a question I have. What am I uploading when I do an upload
with FoxCAE 5.1 via the 2nd ethernet port? Is it the information from the
files, or the contents of the CPs RAM?
Does anyone know?

Re: [foxboro] Automated SaveAll
Alex,
Yes, that does make sense.
So if any of the <cmpd>.O, <cpLbug>.O (which I would have forgotten) or
the
workfile (for a given control station) has a timestamp which is newer
compared to my latest SaveAll, I should update the SaveAll. (right ?)
Thanks !

The workfile date will tell you when the workfile itself is change, i.e.,
when a block parameter is altered - generally by an UPLOAD or a human with
the ICC, IACC, or ICC Driver Task.
The <cmpd>.O files will tell you when blocks in a compound are added or
deleted.
The <cpLbug>.O file will tell you when compounds are added or deleted.
Does that make sense?

Subject: [foxboro] Automated SaveAll
Hi,
We have automated the creation of savealls for all our control stations.
The basis for this is the Ron Deen / Marco van der Waal save_all.sh.
This scripts creates 15 incremental back-ups.
I used to compare the timestamp of the checkpoint file (.UC) and the
latest
save_all to see if a save_all would be needed but as we also have the auto
checkpoint feature enabled we end up with creating a save_all every day.
If
within that 15 days nothing has changed we will have 15 identical
save_all's.
Therefore we recently modified things and now check the timestamp of the
workfile (.wf).
However, today I noticed the save_all was not updated after deleting
several
blocks with ICC.
I found that the timestamp of the .wf was not changed, however the
timestamp
of the .O files of the compounds concerned was.
Could I be sure to cover all ICC changes by checking the timestamp of the
latest .O file for a given CP or should check both the .wf and/or the .O
file (whichever is newer)?
Any info appreciated,
