IOL stops working after a few months of use

Post by daniel » Sun Jan 14, 2018 3:21 pm

I have a lot of IOL images running in a LAB for several months without issues but today all of sudden I can't add any more IOL images. When I click the newly added device to start it, it turns blue for a few seconds but quickly goes back to grey. The wrapper.txt file for the device doesn't really tell me anything and the server has plenty of space. I tested run the same IOL image in the device /tmp folder following the process in the how-to and it runs fine on the command line. Has anyone had the same issue before? What else can I check?

Thanks,
Daniel

Thanks for reply. It doesn't look like a disk space issue:

What limit is the license you mentioned?

The license file is the same one I have used to create more than 30 IOL devices and they all have worked. As for image files I have tried different releases and they all behave the same - not likely they are all corrupted. I even tested running one of the images on command line and it worked fine.

What other reasons you can think of?

Thanks,
Daniel
