[tim0thy]

i was wondering, how do you merge input and output files together? i didn't want to take a chance merging and messing up and losing information...

ok nevermind, im an idiot, he wants to know about merging 2 input files, OR two ouput files, sigh... mental note think then post... think then post... think then post. Usually people use checkpoint files, etc to do so, other than that I dont know

*NEF(tm) ?

Anyways tim0thy you're talking about the buff-in.rc5/ogr and buff-out.rc5/ogr files for the client right? Or are you on the pproxy level?

If we assume you're thinking about clients it's pretty easy (as long as you're not on a mac), from winblows CLI just do this: dnetc -import whatveryoucalledthebufferyouwannaimport if you're running dnet as root on a *nix box you'll have to put the ./ in there of course but then you probably knew that if you're running *nix 😉

I am good at! Merging files is another thing... 😉
I mean are you trying to gather all the data together on the central machine and then send out all the blocks using that?

tim0thy,
It depends on what you are trying to do with the two output buffers. Are you are trying to merge them together in order to take to another PC and flush them?
Are you wanting to merge one output buffer into another PCs output buffer?

If you just want to merge the two output buffers into a client so you can flush:
run the command dnetc -import buff.out.rc5.001
run the command dnetc -import buff.out.rc5.002

This will import both the .001 and .002 output buffers into the client's existing buff-out.rc5 file.

If you want to merge two output buffers together, but not merge them into the existing client's output buffer, then:
- rename the existing client's buff-out.rc5 buffer to buff-out.bkp
- run the command dnetc -import buff.out.rc5.001
- run the command dnetc -import buff.out.rc5.002
- This will import the two files into one file called buff-out.rc5.
- Rename that buff-out.rc5 to something of your choosing.
- rename the original buff-out.bkp back to buff-out.rc5

More info on what you are wanting to accomplish would help us provide specifics. 🙂

i think you answered my question raysun2be, i have multiple machines here and they are all running dnetc off floppy 😀 haha... so i want to take the out file and merge them all together. funny thing is that some of the floppies process 32WU a shot and others at 1 and others at 2... would this conflict.

i think the following will do it...
dnetc -import buff.out.rc5.xxx
repeat for 000 to 999 🙂

 

[RaySun2Be]

That will do it, and I don't think the size of the blocks matter. 🙂
