Handover Issues

CRDS94: KATHERINE had some mk5 troubles. Looks like the mk5 crashed or dimino required restarting?
- Erroneous, normal fix though
AOV021: Hobart26m drives failed. See general issues. Yarragadee VNC problems. See general issues.
R1834: VNC problems.
R4833: Katherine weather server problem. See general issues.
R1833: Patrick, you set a module VSN? How? Katherine wx.
AUA039: Hobart26m hydraulic problem (WAS fixed). Katherine/Yarragadee schedule problem, not observing issues.
R1832: Yarragadee formatter delays -

General Issues

Hobart26m drives major failure. Next session CRF106(Thurs 5th, Atifur setup).
Katherine weather server: digging keep into the AuScope archive I found this snippet:
- “Ryan Ruddick from GA has replaced the GPS receiver at Katherine with a newer “Trimble” unit on 131.217.61.6. This features a web interface that is mostly javascript unfortunately which the existing wthKe.sh script cannot parse. A truly horrible lash-up has been created on dell2ke.phys.utas.edu.au [the UPS monitor PC] which opens firefox to load the siteand save the webpage as html, before extracting the MET data to a text file. This file is then copied to pcfske, where the edited wx function can read it. While ludicrous and somewhat embarrassing overdesigned, it is functional and should last until someone with a working knowledge of javascript can deal with the new MET server. In the meantime, please do not interfere with the firefox window eternally popping up on the dell2ke display”
- How to fix: ssh dell2ke; su; reboot.
Yarragadee VPN: I have noticed that the Yarragadee maser vpn regularly goes down. It runs on the computer 59.167.111.242 and if that is pingable BUT has a ping greater than 100, then you should call either Brett or Randell at Yarragadee.
