core Flight System (cFS) Data Storage Application (DS)

Introduction

The Data Storage application (DS) is a core Flight System (cFS) application that is a plug in to the Core Flight Executive (cFE) component of the cFS.
The DS application is used for storing software bus messages in files. These files are generally stored on a storage device such as a solid state recorder but they could be stored on any file system. Another cFS application such as CFDP (CF) must be used in order to transfer the files created by DS from their onboard storage location to where they will be viewed and processed.

The DS application is written in C and depends on the cFS Operating System Abstraction Layer (OSAL) and cFE components. There is additional DS application specific configuration information contained in the application user's guide.
