General Announcement:

- Due to a failure alarm in the smoke extraction system in XTD6+8+9, Desy colleagues will need to reboot a crate and exchange one module. This will bring down the air conditioning for the tunnels during about two hours. The activity is scheduled for March 1st starting at 11:30AM and it appears in the EuXFEL infrastructure calendar.

- It has been found a situation with one of the elevators to the XHEXP1 Hall. Due to corona regulations a maximum of 3 people is allowed simultaneously in the elevator. This number is indicated by signs/papers fixed nearby. However, someone unauthorized has modified the number “3” to an “8”. We are investigating the situation. The shields have been corrected back to “3” but we would like to remind signs and warnings must not be modified by unauthorized persons.

- Gerd W. informs that SXP chicane modification foreseen to take place today and tomorrow is shifted to Monday or Tuesday due to delays in delivery of components. Affected people have been contacted by PMO via but in case of issues with the new plan, please contact Gerd W.

CTRL:

- Few requests for tickets on Karabo devices were received. CTRL reminds to please add device ID in the ticket.

- SA3 motors: a few changes were done due to migration of MC2 motors. If someone or a group needs more input, please directly contact Steffen Hauf.

General Announcement and A.O.B.:
- Sandra Plett announces that a fire drill will take place next Saturday 26.03 involving many areas at Schenefeld. It starts at 10:00AM and around 6 persons will conduct the drill. 
Please understand that this is only a training. An e-mail will be sent later.
- Theo M. says there is bridge problems in XTD2 XGM into the Doocs and Karabo side. Some trains are still missing. Other XGMs are fine. Stefen H. fears the solution lies more in the DOOCS side.

CTRL:
- The process to deploy Karabo 2.13.3 to mitigate the pipeline connection system is ongoing. Instruments will be managed in individual scheduling. Tunnels areas is proposed to proceed next Monday 28.03. 
An e-mail will be sent.

DA:
- Nothing to report.

EEE:
- Fast electronics has a small intervention at HED to change a crate issue. HED is informed.

VAC:
- Nothing to report. 
- A. Silenzi says he was informed by Martin D. that SA2 topics in e.g. InfluxDB or Graphana had an outage yesterday afternoon. Right now it is back to work but missed some data yesterday. 

XPD:
- XGMD in FXE: the ADC was replaced and is again online.

DET:
- Nothing to report.

ITDM: 
- Influx DB was down yesterday.
- Power glitch on Monday evening: cooling for 604 room at the XHQ ground floor was lost. A. Galler says XO will set a meeting with ITDM and TS to set an alarm when cooling fails.

XRO:
- Nothing to report.

LAS:
- Sandhya Venkatesan will join the XO. Int. meeting also.
- AMPHOS in SA1 and SA2 went down due to the lack of cooling water as consequence of Monday's power outage.

UNSYS:
- Nothing to report.

SPB:
- Nothing to report.

FXE:
- XGMD is running again.
- Dmitry K. thanks Mattias Schoz for fixing an issue with beam. This is fixed. Operators loaded wrong file this morning and re-alignment had to be done.

MID:
- All fine at MID.

HED:
- Nothing to report.

SCS:
- Continuing with the clean of the chemistry chamber after an accident.

SQS:
- Nothing to report.
  303   23 Feb 2022, 10:30 Frederik Wolff-FabrisGeneralInformationNotes XO Integration Meeting 23.02.2022
General Announcement:
-  A. Galler reminds instruments and support groups to feel welcome in making regular entries on the Operations-2022 e-log.

CTRL:
- FastX of GATT middle layer devices was updated last Monday; the slowness issue is improved and fixed.
- Analyzing to upgrade the broker pile-up issue at Karabo: probably to be fixed by next Monday.
- On the BAM monitor: few properties were changed in the DOOCS side. Changes are transparent to DAQ and all the data must be able to be stored. 
Problem appears when data shall be analyzed and then must be looked to the new DAQ. In case of issues please get in touch with CTRL.

DA:
- Maxwell GPFS access rights bug: patch was deployed on Monday and went successfully.
- Next week there will be an update of calibration (further announcement to be done).

EEE:
- Started installing Coax cables for SXP.
- LBM in MID: EEE contacted Beckhoff and will try to get a fix done still this week.

VAC:
- Nothing to report.

XPD:
- Issues with Desy mobile phones: not all phones were equally affected. Issue seems to be fixed this morning.
- In SA2 the SRA slits were too wide open (probably from tuning times). They were closed yesterday night after users finished work.
- Beam delivery to instruments is running fine and smooth.

DET:
- AGIPD detector at SPB: issue with one of 16 modules not sending data since yesterday. Investigation ongoing with DOC and experts. 
Jolanta S.-D. says that this is a new issue which happened twice yesterday and Desy is contacted. An intervention for the hardware during the blue week shall take place. It may be related to electronics 
outside detector.

ITDM: 
- Issue with "phantom" data appearing at DAQ in SA3 instrument: investigation shows it can't be reproduced; maybe it relates to data arriving earlier. It was only visible at DOOCS devices (Undulators 
device). Under further investigation by ITDM.

XRO:
- CRLs in SA2 fixed by ZZ.

LAS:
- Nothing to report.

UNSYS:
- Nothing to report.

General Announcement:
- As PRC Jan G. says machine was tuned at 7keV for SA1 and SA2 and 700eV for SA3 with good performance. SASE tuning proceeded as planned with few issues blocking EPS. 
- Analyzed the effects of the 4mmm aperture at the end of the undulators in SA2: it is not exactly in the center where the FEL is lasing. 
It was found the FEL is well aligned at the IMG cross but is partially blocked by the pipe and is under discussion with RCs the next steps.
- Jan G. mention that one screen at SPB was in unclear state; also a software device was blocking beam in XTD9. A ticket was issued; initially the software blocking could not be identified. 
Solution was to close the XTD9 shutter. Steffen H. suggested to also contacting the DRC for urgent and the technical problem with clone device will be followed up.
