This guide is intended for DAs and AODs using the workspaces capabilities for VLA calibration and imaging, initially for the pilot. For the pilot, we will be selecting EBs from specified projects (TBD) to be run through (and warn the PIs!). Auto-calibration is not yet running (question).

Step-by-step guide

  1. As a DA, go to https://ws-test.nrao.edu/workspaces/active-requests and enter the EB to be processed in the "SDM ID" box at the top, hit the "Calibrate" button.
  2. The job should appear in the job list with a status of "executing". At this point (or at any point prior to QA) you should set the SRDP status to T/F with the checkbox and assign a DA (yourself) and an AOD to the job.
  3. When complete, the status will change to "Awaiting QA". Now click the link to the request page in the "Request" column, which will take you to the request page for the job.
  4. Follow the link to the weblog and perform QA. Right now, the directory can be a bit hard to find... <insert tips here..>
  5. If you need to add flags, click "Create new version" on the bottom right of the page, and upload a flagtemplate.txt file, then click "Submit new version". The old version remains and you can toggle between them using the dropdown menu under "Versions".
  6. When you are satisfied, click "QAPass" (or if not, QAFail). QAPass will pass the current selected version and fail the others.
  7. The execution state should change to "Ingesting", then "Complete" and a "Create Image request" button appear at the bottom right. 
  8. Create the image request, this will create and take you to a new image request page.
  9. Submit the image request  (bottom right button on new image request page).
