[Dsg-rich] RICH PVs disconnect after softIOC reboot.

[Nathan Baltzell]

Hi Tyler,

There was a bug in the database file after some cleanup after the run.  I fixed it and rebooted.  Sorry about that.  

But actually, there’s basically zero reason to ever reboot that ioc.  Certainly no changes on the crio ever require rebooting that ioc.  What were you trying to achieve by rebooting it?
