APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday March 12, 2010 (MJD 55268) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Observers: ---------- Howard Brewington Dmitry Bizyaev Craig Loomis (evening support) Jon Brinkmann (STUI upgrade) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- BOSS Science ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Clear photometric night, good seeing. BOSS plates observed: 3760 (c.13) - done, with signal only collected yesterday and tonight 3686 (c.14) - done 3816 (c.17) - not done 3784 (c.10) - not done 3789 (c.16) - not done 3853 (c.11) - done 3855 (c.12) - well done We observed ~4 min long timeouts after taking hartmann + calibrations sequences prior to 3 cartridges. STUI did not report anything, lamps stayed on (normally they go off automatically), then everything got working by itself. In one cases after sop restart command. ~12 min of the night time lost due to this problem. See log for details. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- 22:50Z Started the afternoon checkout 22:51Z Restarted the watcher servers 23:01Z Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 142G 127G 7.7G 95% / /dev/sda1 99M 30M 64M 33% /boot /dev/sdb1 917G 854G 17G 99% /data hub25mp:/home 92G 76G 17G 83% /home_hub25m sdssfiles1p:/data1/data 1.8T 103G 1.7T 6% /files Night: ------ cart. 13 is mounted. 00:20Z ventilation started, doors and louverd opened. 01:18Z enclosure off -- 01:48Z gotoField with cart 13 plate 3760 Motors failure in sp2 when adjusting collimation.
