I'm using a 7250 to monitor an HVAC run-times, to characterize power 
consumption. It boots into Debian over NFS from our home network server.

The server is on a UPS, and if power fails, it shuts down sanely after a few 
minutes. But the 7250 is not on a UPS, so it would just die when power fails.

In another application, I booted into TS-Linux and mounted everything 
read-only,, but I can't do this with the HVAC monitor -- it writes to files on 
the server.

My program opens and closes each file for every write operation, so there are 
no continuously-open files hanging around waiting for the power to fail.

Am I at risk of corrupting the server's file system if the 7250 dies? If so, 
what should I do to protect it?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
