I am not sure what you are asking about running from an SD card. I am using a Raspberry Pi with a micro SD card that contains the OS, Openhab, all the other stuff that comes with the Noobs package.
Here are my rules files. They contain a lot of my notes to help me remember what I was doing and why. I am not a real power user. I might go months before I might want to make a change. The notes help but they may conflict within themselves or be obsolete.
The rule "“Ignore Bogus Reports” posted Dec 6 is the one for the B&D lock. It is the one that does a translation and goes dormant every few days.
The other rule that I caught dormant one time is:
//Test to see if I can capture the time when watchdog happens
// It just uses a switch Bump_Time
rule "Capture Time"
when
// Item Bump_Time changed //use to test functionality in a classicUI sitemap.
Item WatchDogBurp changed
then
logDebug("Bump_Time changedXXX", "From On to Off")
When_Bumped.postUpdate( new DateTimeType())
end
The translate rules for the two other locks are below. These have never gone dormant. Rule “Yale YRD110 Rule” has been installed for over a year. Rule “New Yale YRD110 Rule” has been installed for a month or so. You can see that all three translate rules are identical except for changes in text fields.

// I tried to use a map file to change the text but it sometimes fsiled and reported

Yes it is. Even if it is dormant, when the command goes out to lock at 10:00PM it locks just like the Yale locks.
. This is usually caused by the same thing and it is discussed many times in the forum. The old rule engine allows rules instances of rules to execute asynchronously, and they are limited to a threadpool of 5 threads. Without seeing your rules, there is no way to help you find where this limitation could be causing your rules to stop. If you want to figure it out on your own, look for
