| The diskdrv Retry statistic is a little
bit different than normal drivers. Retrys on a disk PLC are the
number of writes out to the file. When you write to a disk tag,
Citect writes to memory and at every [DiskDrv]updatetime it will
write out to the disk if you have written to one of the tags on the
diskdrv device.
For example:
I have a [DiskDrv]updatetime =10, every 10 seconds after startup
Citect will write to the file if and only if we have written to a
disk tag within CitectSCADA. When it writes out to this file (which
can be multiple tags at once) the Retry counter is incremented. The
Write Requests increments every time you write to a disk tag in
CitectSCADA (for each tag). So say I write to a single tag 4 times
within the 10 second updatetime on the diskdrv device, the Write
Requests will be 4 and the Retrys will be 2 (1 on startup + 1 for
updating the file). Let's say within the next 10 seconds I write to
the tag 6 times, the Write Requests will now be at 10 (4+6) and the
Retrys will be at 3. Every Updatetime CitectSCADA will write to the
file if tags have been written to and if CitectSCADA writes to the
file the Retrys counter will increment.
