There is nothing DSG can do regarding the configuration of the computer
in the newly completed NMR Rack #1.
Rack #2 computer disk was originally built from the old Rack #2 HDice
(non-CUE) Windows XP computer. This disk was upgraded to Windows 7 in ~
2015 as part of the work required to update LabVIEW on the computer.
When Rack #1 was being rebuilt this year, the computer disk was updated
to a Jlab-CUE based machine by the computer center. Any change to the
configuration or repair of the Rack #1 computer must be done by the
computer center.
DSG has completed the installation of the NMR computers for Racks 1 and
2 in the HDice lab. So we will initiate a property transfer for these
machines to the HDice group.
FYI: In the upcoming year, all Jlab Windows 7 computers (including the
NMR computers) must be upgraded by the computer center to Windows 10.
The required upgrade is detailed on the computer center website here:
