kpf-asl-prime package installation

June 10, 2021

  • Steve did a bare-bones CentOS 8.3 install (with adding GNOME and cmd line/GUI RAID software). Goal was to do minimum to get it running and on network.

  • Different than kpf-server which was built up at UCSC

  • OK Agreed to just add packages as needed (as Will mentioned?)

Log file on kpf-asl-prime

June 1, 2021

  • I could not persuade selinux (Security-Enhanced Linux) to allow rsyslog to write to our standard log locations $KROOT/var/log/.  I will have to ask Steve Allen to assist with sorting that out.

  • Temporarily, I have left the computer in “Permissive” mode [ie, selinux is not enforcing its strict security rules] so that rsyslog can write to the Kroot directory.

Agitator run instructions (superceded by webKTL interface?)

June 10, 2021

After I finish the reconfig, the command line use will be:

To Start: put it into jog mode, and set speed:

modify -s kpfmot agitmod=jog   agitspd=1000   (or whatever)

<do something to home, gotta think about this, because we don’t actually care about a home>

To Stop:

modify -s kpfmot agitmod=halt

What’s missing from the above: we don’t have a definition of 'homing', but the software requires being homed.  Let’s discuss tomorrow.


Caution: initially, don’t command motion w/o being present, to confirm that it’s moving smoothly and not vibrating.

KFP history (telemetry) on kpf-asl-prime

June 1, 2021

  • The kpf history (telemetry) service is installed and running.  But it needs additional services added to its configuration; currently it’s monitoring just kpfpower and kpfmot.

WD

kpfmot consolidation

June 1, 2021

  • The kpfmot service now incorporates all motion-control components: currently it contains the agitator controls, the source shutter controls, and the thorlabs filterwheel control.

WD

set up kpf-asl-prime as our main server

June 1, 2021

  • kpf-asl-prime is more-or-less ready to do all its functions as instrument server.

  • The daemons that Brad created for kpf-server, are now installed on kpf-asl-prime.

  • Both of the KPF servers know where these services run — that is, you should be able to do a “gshow -s servicename …” and be able to monitor keywords from anywhere.

  • The KPF master start/stop script knows about the history service, the Galil’s, and the filterwheel
