12m LBA Schedule - problems

We have lost network connectivity to the antenna controller, also the Mk5.

I guess we had a power outage. The antenna controller has come back but I can't talk to the mk5.

Untill some one attends on-site we are a bit stuck.

I have attended on-site, our Mk5 on the 12m keep going into "kernel panick"

Every time I try to start DIMino or Jive5ab I get on the console:

kernel panic - not syncing: CPU context corrupt
Uhhuh.NMI received for unknown reason 21 on CPU0
Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled
Dazed and confused, but trying to continue

I can't resolve this I am afraid on a Sunday afternoon.

We are having issues with the schedule:

The 30m is running the new FS on debian wheezy :

2015.085.01:31:21.44;Log Opened: Mark IV Field System Version 9.11.6

It seems some of the "disk2files" are trying to save more than the 1s ! This then means that the next mk5 command fails and the "mk5cn" times out. After that the schedule goes wrong, all mk5 commands time out.

We have to stop "DIMino" and restart it. The schedule then catches up and continues.

I'll pass this onto Ed, but might want to stop all the "disk2files" in the rest of the schedules. Or check the time extraction syntax.

hi,

there has been a last-minute change to the block schedule - s14rdb1
has been displaced by v516b. The new schedule has been processed and
distributed.

Warkworth, I am again unable to reach your oper machine at
156.62.231.137. Please download the vex file from the ftp server:
ftp://ftp.atnf.csiro.au/pub/people/vlbi/v516/v516b/v516b.vex

cheers,
Cormac.
