Quote:

I renamed the Autolocker and described it in the elog from this weekend. To run it, you have to run it from the scripts/MC/ directory (as always). I restarted the autolocker on Ottavia with nohup.

> nohup ./AutoLockMC.csh &

To figure out how to get cron to run it, we will have to debug the difference between linux and solaris pgrep, so that's in progress.

I am NOT convinced that the autolocker script is running or doing anything. The MC was unlocked as of this morning and the autolocker wasn't doing anything to any of the MC servo buttons and sliders. The autolocker control shows that it is 'alive' but it still blinks 'MC down' even after I locked the MC manually. I am suspecting that this might have to do something with the caget and caput in autolock script itself rather than the CRON. I will look into this problem later today.

Moral of the story: The autolocker is not doing its job.
