Hey guys,
I am wondering if there is any way to make sure that theres only one nvram commit happening at any given moment?
Thanks,

there isn't in the nvram binary itself, but you can do the same using a lockfile or something of the like..

this is psuedo-code, so adapt it

if ( !file_exists(/tmp/nvramcommit.lock) ) {
    touch /tmp/nvramcommit.lock && nvram commit && rm /tmp/nvramcommit.lock
}
I had this in a code block, but this new punbb board can't see the end block for some reason?

you could put this in your script, or if it isn't a script, just make a wrapper, say nvcommit.sh or something

Why? What are you doing that commits so often?

A commit will write all of the current nvram settings to flash; you don't need to commit after each setting. Constantly writing to the flash will eventually lead to failure.
