• Paolo Turri a new DKIST scientist working on adaptive optics will be starting on July 29th.

SciOps and OpsTools team

Accomplishments

• The Technical and Science Review of submitted Cycle 3 Proposals continues without issues and according to the plan.

• Samantha Limon (Akamai Intern) and David Morris (mentor) created a new SciOps Daily Report (form) that facilitates the process of logging the activities in operations. The new form will be installed before starting OCP2.8. 

TechOps team

Accomplishments

• the Crater Road Fire is 80% contained, MECO are hoping to restore power to the summit district in the next 24 to 48 hours. The road to the summit is still closed with no current eta for opening. Discussions ongoing with authorities regarding access to summit facilities.

• Catch up on LOTO training and release of new Enclosure LOTO and start of thermal systems LOTO procedures release and training.

• First Aid / CPR training moved forward to take advantage of the summit closed.

• re-plan of the engineering period, descope of activities such as crane inspection and addition of full thermal restart. Also accounting for the effect of moving the start / end and shake and bake.

InstOps team

Accomplishments

• Reorganized engineering period tasks due to summit fire.

• Published DHS transfer statistics for OCP 2.7:

  • 215.58 TiB raw,
    135.86 TiB sent to DC (compressed),
    11,333,304 files.

• Organized initial list of VTF November tasks.

Data Center team

Accomplishments

• removed private methods from science processing code such that all method documentation is made public

• complete the trial workflow for DL NIRSP. The trial workflow will be what is used to conduct the trial-assess-update iterations with the science team

• Added DL-NIRSP to the Processing Preparation Worker

• Created a Jupyter notebook to upload existing movies to Vimeo

• Rolled out the metrics framework to all stacks
