[John M Benson]

The archive data ingestion processes are now functioning, sdm and bdf
files are being routed into the archive.

It is running through the back-log of observations today, will get caught
up in probably an hour or so..

KScott fixed a connection.

 Recovery from power outage, October 23, 2010.
>
> 1.  I expected CM to come up initiallized with a list of antennas,
> but it did not.  I restarted it, but still had to manually supply
> the list of antennas.
>
> 2.  Lustre, according to KSCott, was mis-configured.  He fixed that
> and rebooted cbe-master.  CBE, and d10, were then happy.
>
> 3.  Most baseline boards were not configured/programmed.  I suspect
> the automatic startup gave up in disgust after a while because the
> station boards were unhappy, because the antennas were still unhappy.
> I reprogrammed the ones I inteded to use and found lots of fringes.
> Is there an easy way, short of rebooting, to do that to all boards?
>
> 4.  Once we were getting data through the system it was apparant that
> telcal was unhappy.  mchammer was not able to see lustre data.  I
> suspect that the archive cannot either and that the problem is the
> same as that with cbe-master.  KScott is looking at it now.  mchammer
> was rebooted.

> 5.  ea05C and ea25A were not getting delay packets.  I had to restart
> the delay distributor in mccc to get them to work.
>
> 6.  ea09B had two copies of many of its processes running and behaved
> very unstably.  I rebooted it.
>
> 7.  ea13C and ea10B required deformatter realignment even though Kerry
> thought they were OK
>
> 8.  The API is "dead".  At least it is not updating on the operators'
> screen.
>
> 9.  I did not have permission to write a delay correction file into
> the telcal output directory.
