Generated by ARS on 11/19/02 8:08:41 AM ACTION ITEMS LIST FOR SUPPORT TEAMS AND LOGISTIC Telescope : ESO NTT Create-date : 6/23/02 4:28:52 PM Problem Short Description : Switching from Offline to Online the wheel position is not mantained if normal init does not work. Action : modification in the SOFI SW: The "Fall Back Initialisation" does not prevent the function for which it is set to move during the ONLINE action. We would like to have this feature enabled: i.e. when a F/BInit is performed: 1- there should be a possibility to backup the database (little button to toggle), so in case of LCU reboot or ICS restart, the SW "knows" that there is a F/BInit for a given function 2- after a F/BInit putting the fiunction ONLINE should not trigger the HW init, i.e. the function should not be moved. 3- add a "restore" button on the F/BInit panel in order to remove the F/B Init when the function initialise properly again Action Log : 7/4/02 2:49:57 PM gandreon The VLT software release March 2002 has an undocumented feature that may be used. Pls contact R Schmutzer for details. 8/1/02 4:16:13 PM gandreon Point reopened.

Considering that the whole DSS-1 is ~85Gb, it is now feasible to have it entirely on-line locally on one disk. The work requested can be split in several consecutive phases: - install a local copy of DSS-1 with a web-tool similar to http://archive.eso.org/dss/dss - provide a configuration to point skycat to that local server - investigate the possibility to have DSS-2 on-line locally (volume eqv to 70DVDs). Action Log : 10/31/02 2:05:02 PM gandreon Since meli is not under our control a PC with Linux will be purchased and installed. DSS-1 will be first installed but the system will be configured to handle DSS-2. Responsible : Software&Commun.Supp.T.
