Mauna Loa Solar Observatory Observer's Log ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Mar 11 17:22:39 GMT 1994 Year: 94 Doy: 070 Observer: yasukawa COMMENT: Fri Mar 11 17:22:53 GMT 1994 Cool, clear, scattered altocumulus and cirrus to west, no wind. DPMON COMMENT: Fri Mar 11 17:23:59 GMT 1994 Halle was cycling in and out when I opened up this morning. Pressed reboot switch on Plessey. Daystar temperature set at 5.6 (from 5.5). Fri Mar 11 17:26:02 GMT 1994: Patrol Start DPMON COMMENT: Fri Mar 11 17:32:19 GMT 1994 Daystar runaway again, Halle status had erroneous data in it. rebooted Plessey again. Cursor appeared in Objective status around the time of runaway. I still don't know what causes that to happen, but I think messing with it the other day is what caused the IPX crashes I had. I`ll keep hands off that one.

Fri Mar 11 19:16:41 GMT 1994: Patrol Start DPMON COMMENT: Fri Mar 11 19:44:51 GMT 1994 System stopped. Getting a NOTICE that /opt is full.` In checking File Manager, I find that somehow, core is written into /yasukawa -- that's core in RED and with a TIMEBOMB icon in it. Called Elmore, who is probably at lunch and left a message for him to call me back. Standing by.

First, I confirmed that we should try removing CORE from /yasukawa. After holding my breath, we did that with no disastrous consequences. Then I removed image_memory file in /yasukawa, (I don't know how that got there either, but it was in there for a while), as it wasn't needed there. Then we examined what processes were running using ps -g command. The list should be compared with list under "Run" in the SHELL SCRIPTS section of the Software Manual. Display was not running, so we did a "Display &" command to restart the Display task. This resumed the Patrol program which ended as I had requested. We weren't sure what caused core to be written to /yasukawa, but that is what took up all the file space that caused the crash.
