Participants
Topics Review
- jBACI
- Delivered with ACS
- Incomplete
- CTA Could try working on the missing bits, mainly the alarms support
- PyBACI
- Skeleton
- Not urgent, but desirable for some people
- Python 3
- 2019OCT, 2019DEC, 2020FEB Python 2/3 compatible clients
- Bug-fixes on newer versions
- 2020APR Python 2/3 compatible for Containers, Clients, Simulated Components (acssim) and all that has been tested so far
- Python 2/3 compatibility is only guaranteed until 2020JUN release, however it's most likely to stay compatible until several releases later
- 2020APR will be made available somewhere by the end of May
- ACS Workshop
- It is factible for ALMA to participate in an ACS workshop
- We'll have to wait until the COVID-19 status improves globally
- CentOS Support
- ACS is working fine in Centos 8 after a few backwards compatible changes (2020FEB)
- PyOpenSSL version upgrade
- Mico fix to use c++11
- Only difference found during module's tests were:
- Some minor output differences
- Problems in acsdaemon module's tests where scripts hang indefinitely
- This is not a priority for ALMA during this year
- ALMA SW will probably be ported to RH 8 / CentOS 8 for Cycle 10 (Before 2021DEC release)
- ACS could finish this task before as it is ~95-99% compatible at this point, but there is no commitment at this point due to observatory priorities
- CORBA Replacement
- Most likely the first replacement will be the Notification Service
- Already working on a plan to study (and implement) an alternative Notification Service for ACS
