NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS From the 9am status meeting: 3 Supports in the last day. We have become current on all dumps. Have been routinely redumping most of the data due to ground CDR problems, but those seem to have gone away as of the last pass. The next JUL0201 run has been commpleted. Need to incorporate a large number of star catalogs. Depending on when products can be released, there will be a load review either at the regular 2pm time, or later in the afternoon. Please stand by. These loads, and the initial work on Jul0901, are being prepared on OFLS 3. A test has been made to verify that products can be copied back and forth from OFLS 1. Meanwhile OFLS 1 is ready to use. One controller was broken and it will be replaced on Monday by SGI, during which it will be unavailable for some time. Ten additional observations of Comet LINEAR 2001 A2, which apparently were not in the long term schedule, were recognized. Since the Comet observations end the week of Jul 02, they will be put in to start the week of Jul 09. ASVT testing yesterday encountered more setup problems. It will be run again today to check the new NSM recovery and Bright Star Hold recovery SOPs. Quick look data: No new quick looks this shift. Data ops staff will look incrementally at the long ACIS-S/HETG runs, and verify that crossed, dispersed spectra are visible. ------------------------------------------------------- Dan Schwartz, MS #3 das@head-cfa.harvard.edu phone: (617)495-7232 FAX: (617)495-7356 cell phone: (617)512-5627 pager: 877-693-7198 PIN 693-7198 or e-mail 6937198@archwireless.net -------------------------------------------------------
