XRT HOWTO --- Ship archive disks to NWRA

M. Weber; 2007-Aug-10

Overview

This task should be performed once every week at SAO. It isn't too important which day of the week, as long as it gets done every week. There are 2 each of these drives and pelican boxes, and NWRA will return ship them to Weber.

Procedure

GET a 160 GB USB hard drive, with cable. These will be in Weber's office or on a shelf in the Ops Center closet.
ATTACH to Shinjuku (PB-01) for fast connection to Machida. Will automount.
COPY files.
- FROM: /archive/hinode/xrt/level0/....
- TO: mounted disk is under /media/...
UNMOUNT the drive. Right-click on drive's desktop icon and select "Unmount".
PACK hard drive and cable into pelican case, into pelican case box. Preferably pack box in FedEx wrapper ("Pak").
- I recommend using the FedEx Large Pak and self-adhesive Airbill Pouch. These should be on a shelf in the Ops Center closet.
- To get more of these, just ask Shipping to send them over to you (5-7421).
