Vacuum issue at HED

At 18:26 the vacuum failed in the HED CRL3 chamber in the OPTs hutch. The vacuum failed in the section and tripped the valves in the OPT hutch;
it went from 1e-8 to 5 mbar in seconds. The leak is confined to the CRL chamber -- the sections upstream and downstream are not compromised and still have

the initial 600-700 uJ of pulse energy at the beginning of the user beamtime dropped down to 300-350 uJ over night from 14th to 15th. The operators
did not seem to be able to bring the pulse energy above 500 uJ, which is where it was after the RC's intervention in the morning. Is it possible to
bring up the energy in the morning?
