EPICS focus discussion
What kinds of things do you want to know?
LCLS is slated to deliver a control system seminar on EPICS in a few months.
LLNL and LLE presentations on control system architectures
When is a good time?
Speakers are preparing presentations on the SLAC common platform (Marcio Donadio: TID) as well as science IT infrastructure (Amedeo Perazzo: TID) for early Feb.
Amedeo: server and networking hardware currently in use, centralized computing infrastructure and status (central services like NFS, authentication, EPICS archiver, data analysis and storage pipelines), monitoring infrastructure.
LCLS controls roadmap
Raincheck, need one more cycle to complete this. Ready next week.
Review and collectively understand the MEC-U operations vision/story and subsequently the requirements for the control systems
For next time, I'd like each of us to pick something we think is important, critical, or should be a thing to focus on about the control system to share in this meeting.
Consider your experience in building control systems, and what you think needs to be a focus in MEC-U.
