Observing Star Trek stars in southern hemisphere and blazar microvariability. Computer with VPN wouldn't boot so I couldn't log onto the telescope. Put the night up for grabs but don't think anyone took it.

Software/Control PC Issues
There seems to be a light on in the dome. I do not know where to switch it off. The image -D-drive on the camera PC is full. I did not receive a warning it just wrote empty files to disk. They of course displayed normally in DS9 and it took me a while to notice the problem. I was able to clear some old files from a colleague.
