10: Standard Services

Command	Purpose
cell_mon	Monitor engine operations, handle limit events, update engine and cell hours, and manage multi-state updates for functions like running status and shutdowns.
central_updates	Maintain a current copy of the “gp_template” file at all test cells.
child_adm	Initialize the administrator task to continuously wait for messages signaling dead tasks so it can kill/terminate all sub-tasks and processes related to the dead task(s). This task is executed by the ‘go’ script and does not require command-line execution.
cleanup	Remove old or excessive number of files
clear_error	Send a message to the error manager that will cause the error message queue to be deleted. Running the command “errs” after this will only show errors generated after the clear_error command was issued.
clear_watchdog	Send a message to the scheduler to have it reset any reconfiguration overruns. As a result, the ‘watch_dog’ DO’ should become active and toggle at its normal rate.
comp_perf	Perform continuous computations including automatic speed calibration of an analog speed channel versus a frequency speed channel, water pump performance factor, and wind direction resolution to 16 compass points.
cpubind	Set or get the CPU affinity for a specified process or processes matching a given name on the system.
cpu_util	Calculate CPU utilization for the SLO, MED, and FAS scheduler intervals in CyFlex by measuring baseline counts at high priority and comparing with counts at normal priority to determine available CPU percentages.
create_var	Create variables for other applications in the general usage memory areas.
duty_cycle	Analyze duty cycle data by binning values based on configured parameters and accumulating specified variables
email_mgr	Listen for UDP error messages and send emails to specified recipients based on error types and filters.
error_mgr	Manage error messages by receiving them from tasks, storing them in an SQLite database, filtering duplicates, and performing maintenance to optimize storage.
er_specs	Process the event response specification file and configure the event response task by sending configuration messages.
evaluate	Evaluate user-defined expressions based on specification files.
evaluateArrVar	Process user-defined expressions, particularly those involving array variables.
evnt_adm	Manage event creation, attachment, detachment, and processing for the system.
evnt_rsp	Handle event responses in CyFlex by executing actions such as variable updates, scripts, emails, and logs based on specifications.
rcs_specs	rcs_specs is a background process that listens for events and archives specification files using version control.
scheduler	Manage the scheduling of processes at specified intervals in CyFlex, ensuring timely execution, handling process overruns, and monitoring for failures.
startup	Issue the GLOBAL_CONFIGURATION event to instruct all applications to perform initialization functions and begin processing data as required.
start_asset	Start CyFlex by executing a script under a new session.
surge	Compute the turbocharger surge margin based on engine performance data to assess safety margins.
sys_start	Initialize shared memory areas, semaphores, and events for the CyFlex system.
tranMan	Manage file transfers from CyFlex test cells to network servers, including reading acknowledge files, parsing contents, and handling condensed PAM datapoint files.
tranMove	Transfer files from test cell nodes to the CyFlex Communications Node. It runs automatically in the background, periodically checking directories and moving specified files based on configuration without user intervention.
usercron	Create cron file from user editable file
vrbls_to_stat	Compute CyFlex variables statistics
