OWL Operator Summary: Dolphin Recovery Cont!!!

TITLE: 05/08 Owl Shift: 07:00-15:00 UTC (00:00-08:00 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Corrective Maintenance
INCOMING OPERATOR: Jeff
SHIFT SUMMARY:

This shift went super fast....thanks to a dolphin crash!  Ha.  But it was actually kind of fun to go through all the problems; definitely a learning experience!  Sadly, because I am slow I am only handing off an H1 with DRMI locked.

Back Story:  Just as Niko was about to leave after his handoff from me, had a major dolphin crash in the LVEA (Dave will have a more informed entry on the specifics of the crash...he did mention we hadn't had one of these since January where we had been suffering from these fairly regularly before then).

I tried to post specifics & timing of events in other alogs for what I found and did during my shift for this recovery.  In broad strokes, here were my method to the madness and areas I focused on in order through the night:

  1. Proceed as far as I could with locking as usual, until I ran into an issue.  (I was stopped early due to IR cavity for X!)
  2. Alog search for similar issue (Basically looked at last instances for recovery from Dolphin recoveries (thanks, Sheila, Dan, & JimW for the two entries I found).
  3. Dark Offsets!  (I should have realized this was an issue early on (TR_X [blue on striptool] was up at 0.3 instead of 0!)
  4. Check pit/yaw sliders for SUS (If I did this sooner (via Time Machine?) I could have saved some time scratching my head about why certain cavities were not locking.))
  5. ISI Config!  (If I didn't read about this in the Dan/Jim alog, I would have been dead in the water.)

Dolphin Recovery: Initial Alignment, ISI_CONFIG, SUS sliders

Since was not able to progress past FIND_IR for locking, decided to do an Initial Alignment.  Here is that story:

11:55 - 14:05 Initial Alignment

LOCKING UPDATE:

This is where we currently stand.  Ed was in early and he is walking H1 through ISC_LOCK as I type.

I imagine there are still more post-dolphin-crash time bombs to be found (Ed, Richard, & Jeff are looking at our current issue:  OPO Saturations (on the Saturations medm ZM1 & ZM2 are railed!)

Stuck Trying To Get to FIND_IR

X & Y green arms look good.  But having issues getting to the next step.  In the Troubleshooting document there is mention of adjusting the COMM Offset, but that made no change (as well as adjusting the DIFF Offset).  I'm tempted to just run an alignment at this point, but I'm worried that won't address anything here since problem seems to be related to X-Arm for IR or PLL for ALS.  I feel like I should be focusing more on them instead of alignment.

Below are notes and observations thus far:

FIND IR Notes:

* In the Troubleshooting Wiki there is mention of zeroing the Crystal Freq if COMM has no Beatnote, but I'm not totally familiar with that.  

At this point, I'm thinking I'm at a loss.  I could atleast cross something off the list, by doing an alignment, so I will run an alignment (after I have some breakfast).

Running an alignment is a fine thing to do, especially after all those trips and reboots. 

For the xarm IR transmission offset, you are correct that it should be around zero if the IFO is unlocked. Its offset gets changed every lock, so likely came back a little bit wrong after the boots since it is unmonitored in the safe.snap so the most recent value wasn't captured. 

To fix the offset: LSC overview screen, far left about 2/3 the way down is a button "TR CARM". On the TR CARM screen, left side top there are a few filter banks. Change the offset of the XARM one to make the offset on the front wall TV be about zero. (There are 2 filter banks for x, and 2 for y. Should be the one with the smaller offset value. Try one of the XARM banks; changing the offset on the screen should make an immediate change to the trace on the wall. If it doesn't, revert and change the other one.)

Hopefully other find ir problems will be fixed by doing the alignment and adjusting this offset. 

corey.gray@LIGO.ORG - 07:22, Wednesday 08 May 2019 (49104)

Thanks for the quick reply!  I should have looked earlier, but I focused on dark offsets and then an initial alignment that took 2hrs!  Ha.

But yeah, went ahead and addressed dark offsets, and then went for an initial alignment (alog on that about to be submitted!).  Got stuck on INPUT_ALIGN (due to LSC-TR_X again).  So I went through alogs and saw mention of an issue with ISIs for a Dec Dolphin crash.  So I did what Jim mentioned for that case (request another state and then WINDY state), and this did the trick!  Anyway, more thorough diary of Initial Alignment will be posted asap!

Multi-System Failure for H1! (edit: Dolphin Network failure for LVEA)

During the shift change, we had multiple things fail on us.  While I can remember going to list what we saw/noticed in order:

7:27 Beginning Dolphin recovery (Dave).

corey.gray@LIGO.ORG - 00:46, Wednesday 08 May 2019 (49096)
  • Talked with Dave and he said this is a Dolphin failure for the LVEA (except the PSL) with IPC errors for EX & EY
  • 7:27 Dave started models in this order:  SUS, SEI, ISC/LSC, OAF1
  • Model restarts would take systems to their save.snaps
  • Dave asked me to:
    • untrip Software Watchdogs
    • untrip SUS & SEI
  • Dave handed over to me and said I can start recovery & we can go from there.
  • If Dolphin network crashes again we will wait until morning (not call anyone).
  • ...recoverying all the watchdogs!
  • Still see lots of message on DIAG_MAIN (see screenshot from initial entry)
corey.gray@LIGO.ORG - 00:57, Wednesday 08 May 2019 (49098)
  • Reset all Software Watch Dogs.
  • Now moving on to Untripping SUS & SEI.
    • Order I will take are HAMs and then BSCs
    • For each chamber I will start with the (1) payloads (i.e. SUS), (2) HEPI, & (3) ISI
corey.gray@LIGO.ORG - 01:47, Wednesday 08 May 2019 (49099)

NOTEs:

  • Dave might not have received text about this, because I asked him when I called (but he said he was going to check).
  • Ops Overview:  OFI (SUS) at HAM5 button doesn't work
  • 8:09 Completed untripping SUS & SEI watchdogs

IMC was not locking.

  • Ran DOWN for IMC_LOCK
  • then it locked when I requested ACQUIRE.
  • set to LOCKED state with no issue.
  • 8:19 IMC restored

Moved on to Locking

  • Locking Arms Green
    • 8:17 No spot for X & ugly spot for Y
    • 8:21 ALSx came back all the way on its own!   ALSx restored (Y-arm no change)
    • 8:40 Y arm restored
      • During the model restart looks like ITMy's save.snap took the pit & yaw offsets to a different spot (see attached)
      • Restored ITMy pit/yaw offsets & now had flashes!
      • UNLOCKED and tweaked up flashes via ETMy
      • ALSy restored
  • Moving on to rest of locking & will not keep a log (unless I begin to have issues at later locking steps.  
  • At this point we appear to be restored from the Dolphin crash (atleast from an operator's perspective).

8:52 LOAD for SQZ_MANAGER & HIGH_FREQ_LINES

Just as I began to start locking, I remember Niko/Jenne requested some LOADs for  SQZ_MANAGER & HIGH_FREQ_LINES.  I did this while I was in the LOCKING_ARMS_GREEN state. 

By eye, the LOAD for the FREQ_LINES cleared the red ERROR for the node, and LOAD for SQZ_MANAGER (which did not have red ERROR) showed no visible change for the node.  Attached are log files for each node related to the LOAD.

Corner station Dolphin failure

Looks like all front ends on the corner station dolphin network are having issues, I'm starting the recovery.

I've captured dmesg and dolphin logs for later analysis, I'm now restarting all the models in the order SUS, SEI, ISC.

david.barker@LIGO.ORG - 00:46, Wednesday 08 May 2019 (49095)

All models restarted with no issues. 

The CW psinject had stopped because h1calinj was restarted, and it sucessfully restarted itself now that it is under systemd control.

I cleared all the IPC errors and DAQ-CRC counters. Attached CDS Overview shows that the only red is due to the suspension models still have watchdogs enabled.

I'm handing the system over to Corey for IFO recovery.

Update uncertainty estimate using high-freq measurements

Pep, Lilli,

Pep has taken 4 sets of HF measurements. The data are in ^trunk/Runs/O3/H1/Measurements/FullIFOSensingTFs/ (HF0, HF1, HF2, HF3).

Adding those HF measurements into the multi-meas GPR fitting, the results are shown in the first two pdf files. (Script: ^trunk/Runs/O3/H1/Scripts/Uncertainty/process_allmeas_writeGPRHDF5_20190502_addHighFreq.py)

Note that this fitting also includes the 0502 high-freq sweep (coherence is worse). By removing the 0502 sweep, the GPR fitting results are in the third pdf. The difference can hardly be told by eye. Including the poor high-freq sweep slightly improves the fitting.

The updated uncertainty estimate is shown in the first png (cf. the previous results in the 2nd png). The high-freq systematic error improves a lot.

Comparing the 0417 PCAL sweep to the latest uncertainty estimate. They match each other very well. (see details in T1900169)

Just to give some more details on the updates to the GDS calibration pipeline: We restarted the pipelines with a new configuration file

aligocalibration/trunk/Runs/O3/GDSFilters/H1GDS_1240326116.ini

The new configuration file includes the correct list of line frequencies to be subtracted from the GDS-CALIB_STRAIN_CLEAN channel.  The restart occurred around GPS time 1240691683.
