Raspiblitz: Undervoltage Reports

Created on 30 Apr 2019  路  5Comments  路  Source: rootzoll/raspiblitz

I have been having undervoltage reports for a while now so I ordered the power supply recommended from the shopping list which just arrived. I shut down the node hooked up the new powersupply and to my disappointment I STILL see "6 Undervoltage reports found..." message after start up again.

Now it could just be that these are "old" voltage reports, but I can see no way to "clear" them to see if new ones are being generated. (I would have assumed all existing undervoltage reports would be auto-cleared on a reboot but perhaps not?).

Where are these reports located and how can I delete them in order to know if new ones are still being generated?

How to reset/clear these undervoltage reports? Anyone?

The undervoltage reports are counted from the systemlog file - you can delete it to reset counts:
sudo rm /var/log/syslog

You're better off running the PowerTest.

PowerTest script (all in one line):

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openoms/raspiblitz/powertest/home.admin/XXpowertest.sh && sudo chmod +x XXpowertest.sh && ./XXpowertest.sh

Thanks! After running the test I (still) see "6 Undervoltage reports found..."

Test result was as follows:


RaspiBlitz powertest v0.1

I was getting under voltage errors and had to rebuild my node twice due to filesystem corruption. I decided to use a hdd with its own power supply. Since then, now under voltage errors.
