During JH03's shift, we began with the echelle slitviewer message that no such file or directory existed. I followed the wiki instructions and started the Nub. One hour later, (after daylight savings) the internet went down briefly all over the site. It came back up on its own accord. The JH03 program was scheduled for four hours, but because of the end of daylight savings time, observed for five hours. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- PROG INST FAILURE MODE TIME (SEDFNVOG) TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- JH03 E I/S 02:15 02:20 Ecam needed hub restart.
