Comments:

Schedule starts overlapping with vc068 schedule. Start with vc068 schedule and once fringe are found and clocks corrected, we will move over to v291a schedule immediately.

Restarting

If you need to restart the eVLBI session, check mpifxcorr and vsib_record processes have stopped. Also run run

 ps aux | grep mpirun

To check no mpirun proccesses are still running. kill -9 if they are.

Start by running mpifxcorr. This is simply (in the right window)

 > ./run.sh

Witin the next 30 or so seconds, start the vsib_record processes. Just Up arrow in the three windows on cavsi1, mpvsi2 and pkvsi1. the command should be something like

 > vsib_record -t 12h -H pam2 -p 52101 -W 1024 -m2 -f 2s
