[CELS Sysadmins] Celebratory Beer
by Tisha Stacey 05 Aug '11

05 Aug '11

In honor of International Beer Day (http://www.internationalbeerday.com/) let's do the painfully obvious thing and drink some beer. Some of us sysadmin types are heading to Brixie's on Ogden Ave. in Brookfield (http://brixies.com/) where they have an excellent tap selection and surprisingly good burgers and hot sandwiches (and I'm told the chili is quite good, too). It's all open seating, so head there any time and grab a table or a spot at the bar. Hope to see you there! - Tisha _______________________________________________ This is the CELS Sysadmins mailing list.

Fwd: 2 ORPS - Electrical Exposurea at ANL

Begin forwarded message: > From: Lillian Ruscic <lruscic(a)anl.gov> > Subject: 2 ORPS - Electrical Exposurea at ANL > Date: July 28, 2011 11:16:04 AM CDT > To: "William E. Allcock" <allcock(a)alcf.anl.gov>, Craig Stacey <stace(a)mcs.anl.gov> > > Please share this two electrical incidents reports with your groups. > > > > > > The first was at the APS where a technician received a 120 V electrical shock across the arms and chest while changing out an internet switch in a power supply cabinet on May 3. > > The second" > > On 7/25/2011, at 9:35 a.m., an ion source engineer received a shock while performing helium leak tests on a high voltage source (i.e. Electron Cyclotron Resonance Charge Breeder source). The ion source engineer had earlier changed out an element of the electron cyclotron resonance charge breeder on the high voltage platform. Consistent high background gas peaks in the built-in residual gas analyzer (RGA) remained after the change. A systematic process of trying to locate leaks was begun. At the time of the incident, the engineer was testing around the Electron Cyclotron Resonance Charge Breeder source. Using a Tygon line connected to a helium gas cylinder with a metal Swagelock fitting on the far end, the engineer was holding the fitting while spraying helium around a Lexan flange through which a 1/4 in. Polyflow cooling line ran into the source through a shielded housing. The source was on at the time and was set to 30 kV and 0.75 mA with a maximum limit setting of 4 mA. A spark jumped from the Polyflow tubing to the Swagelok fitting and to the right index finger, and likely to the grounded vacuum line a short distance away. The engineer was uncertain that he had received a shock or was just surprised at the spark event, but immediately stopped the test, went to the control room, and dialed 911. He was taken to the Medical Division for observation and evaluation. He was released back to full duty a short time later. > > Lillian Ruscic > ESH QA Coordinator for CELS, LCF & MCS > B240 AES > 2-4471 -- Craig

While I'm on vacation
by Ti Leggett 04 Aug '11

04 Aug '11

I've updated the emergency recovery procedure for PADS and FutureGrid on the wiki (https://wiki.mcs.anl.gov/systems/wiki/Datacenter_Recovery_Manual) Those steps should get the machines back online unless something goes wrong with the DDNs or network gear (which hasn't been happening lately). I also put all the useful passwords for the various gear in envelopes in the MCS helpdesk safe. Jason has graciously agreed to cover for me for PADS and FutureGrid. Dan has graciously agreed to cover for me for sal9000. Everyone should have my cell phone (630-854-9335), but as I mentioned earlier, I may or may not have reception. If I don't, I'll get a hold of Craig and give him a way to try and contact me if there's an emergency. I plan on ignoring email the whole week starting on Saturday (we'll see how closely I stick to this plan). Since I think we moved all the web sites over to pokey, if there's an issue with them, you can hand off to Ken. I'm making sure Ken and Dan are both allowed to own tickets from the General RT queue. For those who don't know, you can get to the CI RT at https://rt.ci.uchicago.edu and login with your CI username and password. Almost every CI host should be accessible from the CI bastions, jarvis.ci.uchicago and jeeves.ci.uchicago.edu, using your MCS OTP. Below are relevant hosts for the clusters: PADS (pads.ci.uchicago.edu) admin: administrative head node. Can get to any node on the cluster with hostbased root svc: scheduler. Also GPFS manager for the client GPFS cluster monitor: nagios and ganglia stor[01-10]: GPFS filesystem managers login[1-2]: login nodes and GPFS managers for the client GPFS cluster FutureGrid (uc.futuregrid.org) admin: administrative head node. Can get to any node on the cluster with hostbased root svc: scheduler. Also GPFS manager for the client GPFS cluster monitor: nagios and ganglia stor[1-5]: GPFS filesystem managers login[1-2]: login nodes and GPFS managers for the client GPFS cluster I think that's it. If I think of anything else, or you think of anything else I forgot, let me know and I'll try to get it documented today before I leave.
