1.) Using local netowrk card

I decided to connect the ROC directly to the second 1 Gigabit ethernet card on the host in order to avoid setting up a firewall which makes our sys admin guys happy and allows CODA to work.

I had to tell the ROC to alias the new host names in the boot script


so in the file CODA/bootscripts/roc1.boot

I added the line

hostAdd "daq1" "10.1.1.1"

You can do this on the roc as well and then on the ROC you can check the lookup tables using the command

-> hostShow                                                                     
hostname         inet address       aliases                                     
--------         ------------       -------                                     
localhost        127.0.0.1                                                      
roc1             10.1.1.2                                                       
localdaq         10.1.1.1          daq1                                         
value = 0 = 0x0                                                                 


2.) Incorrect number Argument when downloading

daLogMsg: Downloading configuration "SIS3610"
Incorrect number of Arguments passed for ROL = 1
daLogMsg:  Incorrect number of Arguments passed for ROL = 1
