On each DSM, the lsu command displays the last 10 archive files.  On the flux system, the lsu command runs lsu on each of the tower DSMs in succession. After 0Z, the rsync scripts copy and remove the previous day's files, so you will generally see only files for the current day.  The modification time of the last file shown for each DSM should be the current time in UTC.  If run a second time the size of the file should have grown.

Cockpit

On flux, you can run the cockpit command from a terminal window, to monitor the real-time data.  A popup window will appear.  Select "Search" to connect to the server on the localhost host, at port 30005.

cockpit will then create a set of tabbed pages, each containing small time-series plots for each sampled variable of a DSM. Each second a vertical line is drawn from the minimum to the maximum value of the variable over that second. When the trace reaches the right-hand-side of the plot, the trace is greyed out, and a new trace begun.  If a sensor is not reporting, RIP will be displayed on the plot.  The greyed-out traces provide a history of the data. The history can be cleared by selecting GlobalSetup -> Color -> Cleanup History.

cockpit can be configured to cycle through the tabbed pages via GlobalSetup -> AutoCycleTabs.

Check Services (sstat)

The post processing of CABL data is done on the flux laptop at the BAO tower, and on porter2 at EOL. The systemd service manager of RedHat Linux is used to start and monitor the services which run the various processing steps.  On flux, the processes are running under the aster userid.  On porter2 they are running under user maclean.  They are started automatically by systemd at bootup.
