<DC-IRC> <sugarPlumFairy> Hello all,
<DC-IRC> <sugarPlumFairy> I'm in the prosses or getting ready to start a project with the Orange Pi 5 8GB. for this project I'm going to leave the device in an remote location (Parents Garden) in an always on state. (I can implement weekly reboots if recommended. I did a bit of MCU programming in my younger engineering career and learnt the importance of HW & SW Watchdogs. I've see in the RK3588S that the Chip has a HW watchdog, so can anyone help me wi
<DC-IRC> <sugarPlumFairy> How do I enable and use the Hardware watchdog and reset the counters.
<DC-IRC> <sugarPlumFairy> Dose Armbian have a built in Software Watchdog I can use for my services etc? once I can tap into and ensure my packages are always running?
<DC-IRC> <sugarPlumFairy> I'm a nodeJS user when able if that changes anything, "Might" also play about with Dockers for running my services as well.
<DC-IRC> <sugarPlumFairy> Any other points will of course be welcome and please feel free to simplify everything as I'm new to ARM SBCs.
<DC-IRC> <sugarPlumFairy> Thanks in advance 🙂

<DC-IRC> <lanefu> Read up on systemd
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> It can be responsible for operating your service
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> There are also systemd setting for working with the hardware watchdog. (if it's supported). Opi 5 / rk3588 are very new and aren't going to have much software maturity. Personally I'd choose an older, more proven SBC to leave in a remote location
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> Yeah. systemd will be responsible for acting when watchdog is triggered (eg, rebooting on panic). but actually triggering the watchdog will be highly silicon and kernel dependent; you gotta test. I'd say its 50-50% chance _that_ rk vendor kernel will do it properly...
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> @rpardini ironicly if they can get one... a rpi/broadcom based unit is ideal for what they are trying to do with the depth of community doing the exact type of setups
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> And those units do handle that functionality very well
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> (if you can find one)
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> Yep, RPi4b's watchdog -- actually works.
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> Takes some 30s to trigger on a complete lockup, but does work.
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> Yeah it does.. and the amount of gpio/etc available addons are great for that project
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> That said... why does it lock-up to begin with? Great that it watchdog's it for you, but would be better if it didn't lock to begin with 😉
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> I've actually never had mine lock up unless I "force" a lockup
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> I've one (on LibreELEC) that locks up all the time, when software-decoding video.
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> gets extremely hot and locks.
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> Ah.. yeah you aren't using the Videocore
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> same stuff on Amlogic, gets a bit hot, does not lock
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> that hurts it pretty bad
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> same stuff on Rockchip, gets quite hot, locks, and does not trigger watchdog
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> I need to figure ouot how to build a Rack for 2 Rock5's, Visionfive 2, and a RockPro64...
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> I need to figure out how to build a Rack for 2 Rock5's, Visionfive 2, and a RockPro64...
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> Got too much sprawl again on the desk
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> i've used hardware watchdog with systemd and allwinner devices as well. just havent tested on otehrs
<DC-IRC> <sugarPlumFairy> Thats great, Thank you
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> SBCtree FTW
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> is that an old pic, or is the SBCtree _back_ ?
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> old pic
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> I _may_ repurpose it for an all Rock-5b config
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> looks like the spacing is the same to get 2 anchor points
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> @lanefu I was using this and just modified it.. but it kinda ran out of room...
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> ahh thats kinda nice since you can actually remove individual boards eaisly
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> yeah.. I'm trying to modify it and add extra bolts to keep using it and add more board mounts
<DC-IRC> <BreakThrough> I'll lecture 15 people on how to earn $50,000 USDT from crypto market, But i'll take 10% cut. Interested people should send message
<DC-IRC> <Tenkawa> @NicoD still here
