2017-08-07	Dirk, Daisuke Tsutomu	EVB	Plots to demonstrate the importance of timeout duration, fast re-transmission option (still preliminary, more data points with slightly different condition will be added)	https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6V4naKAxXfUZGJpZXBzbHdHVjA
2017-08-08	Dirk, Daisuke Tsutomu	OPCUA	Following host names added in /etc/hosts for convenience 10.1.0.54 okinawa-10g-1 10.1.11.201 okinawa-10g-2 10.1.12.201 okinawa-10g-3 10.1.0.250 okinawa-1g 10.1.0.83 tib
2017-08-08	Dirk, Daisuke Tsutomu	OPCUA	A small problem we found is reported https://forge.in2p3.fr/issues/20103
2017-08-08	Dirk, Daisuke Tsutomu	Strange Triggers??	We can not reproduce the strange behaviour we saw yesterday...	An email sent from Daisuke to the email thread [climate chamber at IAC]
2017-08-07	Dirk, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	Additional Dragon setting	wrb 0xFFFFFF10 3 (Enables fast re-transmission) wrs 0xFFFFFF2E 1 (Set time-out duration to 1ms)	Temporally we are doing like as follows, but should be implemented in future in ClusCo. for i in $(scanIP | \ awk '/Bee.Beans/ {print $1}') do rbcp $i 4660 << EoCommands rd 0xFFFFFF10 1 wrb 0xFFFFFF10 3 rd 0xFFFFFF10 1 rd 0xFFFFFF2E 4 wrs 0xFFFFFF2E 1 rd 0xFFFFFF2E 4 quit EoCommands echo Done for $i done
2017-08-07	Dirk, Daisuke	Strange Triggers??	We discovered today that sometime module 14,15 and 18 created ~4 MHz of L1 external triggers by its own when temperature is high. Very strange behaviour, need to be investigated further. Attached are screenshots, we have injected periodic trigger at 1kHz, but only some modules got very high trigger rate.	https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6V4naKAxXfUTl8xcXR4VXYzY0k https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6V4naKAxXfUeVdlNF9vLXlVZ1E
2017-08-07	Dirk, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	EVB	Implementation of OPC/UA	https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6V4naKAxXfUTnRJeWVYamV1bDg
2017-08-04	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	EVB Cold start	Daisuke can start EVB from the beginning.	HowToRunEVB
2017-08-04	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	EVB test	Two 10GSFP+ links from the switch to the camera server. we could take up to 88 kHz periodic trigger!
2017-08-04	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	EVB test	Throughput measurements with Random/Poisson triggers, FastRetransmission option, Timeout duration	https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hc_JQFFzJYI-o9oFybhmTCVDvkSL2t5UxaX7MgLj9qs/edit?usp=sharing
2017-08-03	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	EVB test	Julien found an interesting SiTCP option :Fast retrains, second bit of the address 0xFFFFFF10. (Default is off). With this option re-transmission time is automatically optimised!
2017-08-03	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	EVB test	We understood the SiTCP parameter for the timeout duration of re-transmission (0xFFFFFF2E). This should be optimised with respect to the real RTT
2017-08-03	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	EVB test	Dragon buffer size consistent with Takayuki's report 88 events
2017-08-03	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	EVB test	No event/trigger number mismatch both with periodic and poissonian triggers. TIB new firmware seems good
2017-08-02	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	EVB test	Ramdisk installe, 2GB/s of writing speed
2017-08-02	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo		see https://forge.in2p3.fr/issues/19976
2017-08-02	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	EVB test	Closing procedure confirmed. Just closing socket is enough.
2017-08-02	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	Okinawa	Installed one more x520 to have a connection between okinawa and osaka
2017-08-02	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo	Okinawa	Isocpu setting of CPU, all cores except 0,2,4,6,8,10 are isolated to be used only for EVB
2017-08-02	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu	TIB firmware	Updated to the newest one
2017-08-01	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu	EVB test	We managed to take data at the periodic trigger rate of 46.3 kHz.
2017-08-01	Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu	EVB test	The new dragon firmware (dv5_1_0d_00, byte swapped) flushed to all modules
2017-07-31	Alicia et al	MiniCamera setup	19 modules are mounted, 2 without trigger mezzanine
2017-07-28	Mazin	Created this page	Juan Calvo issued entrance permits for all participants of the tests
