* HESSI target for today: AR9866

  HESSI’s “first light” press release was released yesterday:

  http://www.gsfc.nasa.gov/topstory/20020320hessixray.html

  HESSI data are now available, see:

  http://hessi.ssl.berkeley.edu/data/software/hessi_data_access.html 

* Today no commanding will be allowed from 23-23:30 UT

  while JPL upgrades the Special Function Gateway (SFG).  Only a

  5-second telemetry outage is expected.  Missing data will be

  recoverable from the CDR.
* The Soho EOF/EAF secondary router is going to be unavailable at

  times over the next couple of months. During this time, all

  computers on the EOF/EAF network should be configured to use the

  primary router. Paul Doupont has monitored network traffic in an

  attempt to identify any computers which were using the secondary

  router and they should have now been switched to the primary

  router. During this two month period Paul will be working on the

  secondary router in preparation for the long anticipated 100megabit

  upgrade. This work will occur during normal work hours. Except for

  brief periods the secondary router will be available for use in

  case of failure of the primary router. Please refer any questions

  or concerns to Paul Doupont
* RAL CDS computers will not be available from Friday,

  22 March at 15 UT until Monday, 25 March at 9 UT due

  to a planned power outage for utility work.
* Commanding times for next week:
  Monday –   Command until 17:30 UT on D66 then on D27.
