[INSTRM-415] hub actors keyword is not accurate

Wed, 11 Jul 2018 16:40:09 +0000

In the spsClient, I'm displaying the actor status, the idea is to know which actor is actually online.

basically, I have a callback on self.models['hub'].keyVarDict['actors'].

each time an actor is connecting or disconnecting the hub, I get noticed and I update the matching widget.

That's working well unless the actor is not disconnected properly, for instance when we power down the BEE, in that case, the hub keep thinking that the ccdActor is still connected.

alefur@PFS-WS2:~$ oneCmd.py hub status
2018-07-11T16:19:24.235 sent hub status

alefur@PFS-WS2:~$ oneCmd.py ccd_r1 status
2018-07-11T16:19:38.821 sent ccd_r1 status

the hub doesn't return a notarget and the command is stuck.
