Network failure

Tuesday, May 3, 2022 4:53 AM

Problem(s) Encountered:

At approximately 8:30pm the remote connection to the 1.3m was dropped. I emailed the 2.4m observers and Eric to let them know we had lost connection with the telescope. The 2.4m operators were able to respond to email and close the 1.3m telescope. Connection was not restored for the entire night. 

Solution:

Mouse chewed through the fiber to MDM’s main network switch.  Fortunately had ONE spare.  Tony and I ran the new fiber this morning, restoring network.
