Maintenance Day Summary

Many user model changes were made today by SUS and SEI groups. Two DAQ restarts were performed to support these changes at 12:55 and 17:03PDT.

I created a mini CDS overview MEDM to display on the TV monitors for the operators. I regenerated the detailed CDS overview screen, it still needs some updating. I created a new MEDM called H1CDS_FE_FMDAQ_STATUS_STRINGS_CUST.adl which is launched from CDS on the sitemap (FE FiltDaq entry). It shows if individual filter modules have been loaded, if changes are pending and other possible configuration mismatches.

I hand edited the H1EDCU_GRD.ini Guardian file to "green" up the EDCU by removing systems which are not running.

My EDCU greening did not last long, around 3pm PDT the conlog was restarted but has not come back. Patrick will investigate tomorrow.

The preparation for individual logins was completed and an email sent today to encourage users to log into the control room workstations using their own accounts. Main change to the CDS was the adding of common files to the controls groups and making them group writable (was done end of last week).

Some RFM0/1 IPC mismatches were found in the H1.ipc file and were corrected by removing the incorrect entries and recompiling the models (ASC and ISC).
