- 71: SOFTWARE, Site MAPR Independence, CA, Tue 13-Apr-2004 17:56:16 GMT, Satcom link restored
The Datastorm PC was able to reach the internet via the satcom
link, but other machines on the internal network could not. Discovered
that the datastorm ethernet IP address on the internal network
was wrong. Moved the PCMCIA ethernet card back to the bottom slot,
and it got back it's correct (fixed) IP address. The rest of the
network could then route through it again.
Little known fact: Windows "plug-and-play" keeps different configurations
for PCMCIA cards, depending on the slot they are in. When the ethernet
card is in the lower slot, it has a fixed IP address, necessary for the
local routing to work. When it is plugged into the upper slot, it
gets assigned an IP address by WinRoute's DHCP.

To clear space up on mapr:/data1 I made a copy of the dirs
/data1/mapr/wind/20040301 to /data2/mapr/wind/20040301
/data1/mapr/wind/20040302 to /data2/mapr/wind/20040302
/data1/mapr/rass/20040302 to /data2/mapr/wind/20040302
I then removed the data1 dirs. This is temporary solution until
the dvd writing gets figured out.

Network correction:
None of the networking operated after a complete power shutdown. The laptop connected to the datastorm would get out to cnn.com, but the internal networking between machines did not work. I unplugged the D-link data switch power and plugged it back in which restored the network.
Power down period:
The generator maintance took about 30 minutes over lunch. I had powered down everything and left everything down except MAPR from 20:00 to 22:00 to see if there was something interfering. Everything came up apres.

The idl program xplotmapr is started on the machine
mapr with the alias command xplotmapr. The alias is
xplotmapr /home/mapr/monitor/xpoltmap/xplotmap
There is now a application icon on the toolbar panel
that will bring up xplotmapr. The icon is a cartoon
man (Bill ?).
