• czar Monday & Tuesday - slow processing because we had problems with ipp018 and fsck, and ipp006 going down.
• addstar
  • cleanup of ipp004 fillup mess (merged db is fine, the latest minidvdob was removed - database updated to make addstar think it had never processed the last minidvodb)
  • restarted addstar (numbers of timeout faults - these need to be investigated)
• ifa liason (tomo)
• publishing for wainscoat - 2 nights of OSS + 2 extra images
  • there is no easy way to reprocess (and diff) OSS. I wrote some scripts (not checked in), to diff exactly the same exposures as before.
• publishing bugs found (one fixed), instructions on how to use publishing: ​http://svn.pan-starrs.ifa.hawaii.edu/trac/ipp/wiki/CreatingNewDatastoreForPublishing
• minidvodbcopy
  • finished writing the tools, scripts and tasks for minidvodbcopy
  • tested on ipp022
  • wrote a wiki on how to use it ​http://svn.pan-starrs.ifa.hawaii.edu/trac/ipp/wiki/MinidvodbCopy
  • set up keys so ipp004 can ssh to ipp022 (with Gene's permission)
  • merged into trunk (gpc1 database not updated yet)

• PSPS
  • prepping for PSPS software engineer interviews (reading, Googling...)
  • full day of interviews and discussions about candidates
  • hassles restarting loading after IPP IP changes

• IPP
  • czartool
    • roboczar now emailing (just me, for now) when a stage of processing is 'stuck', i.e. plateaued while (pending - faults > 0)
    • more work on 'analysis' code. Can now figure out when processing starts, stops and when it is stuck for a given period

• Other stuff
  • some time fixing desktop machine after MySQL killed it
  • day off on Monday
