 UARS CDHF Status #6   September 23, 10:00:00Z to September 25, 10:00:00Z

1.  Level 0 Ingest and Processing Summary

The Data Capture Facility (DCF) had been processing all observatory
playback dumps as quicklook dumps for transfer to the Central Data
Handling Facility (CDHF).  Procedures are now in place for PI and
FOT personnel to identify specific playbacks for quicklook processing.
The DCF will quicklook process only these identified playbacks.

The CDHF processing of observatory realtime data flows and the ingesting 
of quicklook dumps and daily 24-hour Level 0 files continues to be 
supported as scheduled.

2.  Production Processing Summary

Scheduling of production processing of instrument data continues in
accordance with the following processing plan coordinated with the 
UARS instrument teams:

CLAES processing has been terminated by request of the CLAES team.  The
PI team has implemented a software patch required for the processing of
the currently available mission data.  The patch will be verified in
an engineering mode on the CDHF against the mission data by the PI team
prior to making a formal delivery to the UARS Project.

ISAMS software group has identified the probable causes to problems
encountered in attempting to process a subset of the mission data.  The 
fixes to these problems will be verified by ISAMS personnel prior to 
formal delivery to the CDHF.

3.  General Comments

CDHF personnel continue to work with PI data processing personnel to
address the problems that have been encountered in the production
processing of the early mission data.
