News: Grafana/InfluxDB on Tango attributes; OmsVme58 server 'self moving motors'; EigerDectris with EigerRequestsCtrl; motorLogs

• Grafana/InfluxDB on Tango attributes (KG P02.2, SS): an InfluxDB has been installed on a VM provided by the CC. Selected attributes are read once per hour, the petra3 beamcurrent with a 10 minutes update rate, a dashboard has been created.

  Test operation at P02.2, no automated procedure to setup a beamline yet.

  Command: TngAttrMonitoring start/top needs to be created.

  Hight frequency monitoring still open.

• OmsVme58 server, self moving motors: the observation has been made at P23, happens rarely, under investigation with Yury Matveyev, related to diffractometer, related stel-0 moves.

  Actions: step == 0 will no longer cause a move, RecentWrites extended, new server at P23, testing.

  So far no bad news from P23. Reluctant to make a general update because that would require lots of homing procedures.

• EigerDectris, arm() in exte trigger mode, P21: after arm() sometimes the state changed from ON to OFF (not MOVING). Tests at P21.

  Update: Opening the dector and file-writer ATK panel overloaded the system resulting in grey widgets.

  The control I/O to the detector has now been serialized by an additional class: EigerRequestsCtrl. It is currently been tested at P21

  An example can be found here

• Automated motorLog creation repaired: motor logs are created every 4 hours on TANGO_HOSTs.
