reduce sbRIO boot time

[wilburwu]

Hi everyone,

has anybody a tip how to reduce the booting time of a sbRIO or cRIO. The VxWorks needs normally 25-30 Sec to boot up. Is it possible to make it faster?

Thanks,

Wilbur

Hello Wilbur,

There are a couple things that you can try to easilly shave a couple seconds off of your boot time. First try using a static IP instead of DHCP. That way even if you don't have a network cable plugged in (or a DHCP server is not present) you don't have to wait for that to fail.

Second, uninstall any software that you don't really need from MAX and disable services you don't want from the project.

Hope this helps
