                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: G.Saurage
Mostly clear skies, moderate seeing. No problems except the following error with gcam.
UT 05:58 gcam gave the following error message:
05:58:32 APO.gabrelle 344 gcam f text="[Errno 28] No space left on device"
And a subsequent SPIcam exposure failed as well:
06:01:15 PU04.marr 132 spicamExpose i
spicamSeqState="PU04.marr","object",900.0,1,1,"failed"
06:01:15 .hub 0 cmds i NewCmd=463466; CmdTime=1259128875.35; Cmdr="client-6";
CmdrMID=1463; CmdrCID="spicamExpose"; CmdActor="fits"; CmdText="finish spicam
infile=/export/images/forTron/spicam/20091125T054523Z01.fits"
06:01:15 spicamExpose 1463 fits f fitsTxt="Could not read FITS file
/export/images/forTron/spicam/20091125T054523Z01.fits: Could not completely read the
input FITS file: 0 0 "
I ended up deleting the night's gcam directory to get this error to clear.
