I have connected a USB thumb drive to my Vera that I use to write debug data to when testing my Luup code. For now, I manually mounted the drive via an SSH session, but I would like it to automatically be mounted whenever Vera starts up. Is there a way to do that?
If you know your mount command, you can add it in /etc/init.d/custom-user-startup script
Thanks for the tip. It worked perfectly.
And just for the benefit of anybody else who wants to do this, here’s what you need to add to the /etc/init.d/custom-user-startup file:
mkdir /mnt/usb
mount /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /mnt/usb
My UI wont load due to a 99% sys.
I need to mount a USB drive
Can the Dashboard USB logging feature be enabled / checked via SSH ?
The drive is formatted and ready to go.
The “custom-user-startup” file is not in my /etc/init.d/ ?
Any ideas (Vera 2 UI4) .
JOD.
*Edit. Got it mounted and the UI loads now. I’m up and running.
Glad to see your back in business JOD. Hopefully you can get your Vera 3 up and running. That is if we can get a stable release of UI 5.

Thanks Garrett,
One step forward and two back. :
Needed to delete all my cameras, plugins, about 50 scenes, 20 nodes and a bunch of code just to keep the engine running.
At least now I have the core functions of my house back online.
JOD.
JOD,
You commented above:

I have same issue. How did you create this file from SSH (I’m using WinSCP)? Presume you did / must have in order to be up and running, but don’t see how you cracked it.
Many thanks, if you catch this and have some quick guidance,
JohnR
in the ui5 you can go to settings> logs >mount the usb drive in the logging tab and enable verbose logging donno if it stays on after reboot as it wont accept usb3 stick i have.
Hello,
You can use notepad to create the file and then copy it from your computer to the Vera.
I have added a file, just delete the “.txt” file ext.
For JohnR it include the dataMine folder mount. Otherwise, that line can be deleted.

you know if this datamine plugin still works on ui5 perhaps ?
Hello @Da_JoJo,
Answer is Yes. No. In part etc. I am still running it in UI5 and it is currently collecting data; however, the graphs is not rendering using the 28 Nov 2011 files. I have loaded the most recent files dated 18 Jan 2012 and the same occurs.
As it is only still collect the data, I continue to use it and when there is an update, Ihave not missed the data.
mm u tried another browser ?
Yes, I just tried all versions of the plugins on IE9, Chrome and Safari. I reverted back to 28 Nov 2011 files as this was the only version the the config tab would render. However, on no versions did the graphs render.
probably coz of the interface redo of the vera ui5, i dont have enough knowledge about that but i can ask a friend to look at it.
maybe someone in the forum here knows what to change to make it work ?
