Action : Find out if it is required by the depository. If the answer is yes, set it up on a test machine for commissioning. Action Log : 2/21/02 1:55:20 PM gandreon Also a the installation of a Database for test is required since the one available has gone to GVA. 2/25/02 2:47:18 PM aschemrl There are several new versions of p2pp available, the last official one being 2.2.3. However, 2.2.3int1 for integration is also available, and in the near future specific work will be done towards period 70. In all cases all visitor configurations support connection to the Garching repository by default. The telescope version of p2pp points to our (OLASLS) repository, and visitors ftp their obs to the telescope. The question is not clear, and I hope it is answered. When our SWC lab is fully functional, all p2pp versions will be tested offline. At present(starting today), new lsusr accounts have the new p2pp2.2.3 version installed. 3/7/02 2:20:24 PM gandreon Installed on all Linux boxes.

Action : In a recent intervention by the MEC team, it was determined that a larger value of the encoder corresponds to a lower postion of M2, that is M2 closer to M1. We have been believing all along that the situation was the contrary basically due to the following reason: our temperature compensation formula, which I just checked that still work, is Focus = 25740 - 66*Tserr. That is, if the temperature of the long serrurier increases moving the M2 to a position further up from M1, we compensate by moving the focus to a lower encoder value. Thus, according to this eu increases up. This action is to ask the MEC team to check the movement of the M2 unit as a fucntion of encoder value, AND to explain why the focusing formula presented above work. There is certainly something we do not understand, and we should. Action Log : 5/10/02 9:12:40 AM gandreon Rene' confirmed that best dates are May 22nd or 23rd.

Action : After a Problem Request from NTT, Anton investigated the situation of P2PP,here is the report: 11/15/01 11:29:25 aschemrl During my Nov8-15 turno, the analysis of the problem showed the implementation and configuration of jp2pp is a MESS! There are 3p6 users running NTT configurations, which in turn are running WFI jre's. It is obvious that under these conditions a more restrictive solution would take longer to implement on kila, and may not be the ideal solution. This is not an NTT problem, it affects all visiting and local astronomers. A suggestion will be made to create a jp2pp template that will be applied at the time of lsusr account creation. This means running jp2pp on Linux machines that connect to the drl9 server. This will avoid configuration interferences and single user responsibility. This means that jp2pp would be removed from kila. Aproval of this proposal will remain pending until there is a global La Silla agreement among astronom Action Log : 11/22/01 2:37:39 PM gandreon It looks like a good idea. However, his implementation requires a configuration change of Kila & offline systems. To be approved by LSO Management. 12/13/01 3:07:12 PM gandreon FGU sent an email to JME. 12/20/01 3:30:47 PM gandreon P2PP installation in Kila has been cleened up.
