Submit a PDOR

PDORs are submitted directly to the MOC via the GFTS server.

  • Upload the PDOR file saved from Starlet by clicking the "Upload IOR" button at https://pub023.cs.technik.fhnw.ch/view/operations
  • Generate and download PDOR from the Operation Requests List on the STIX server.
    • Go to https://pub023.cs.technik.fhnw.ch/view/operations and click the button marked "Create IORG File".
    • Enter the PDOR ID as the start and end ID. Also enter the STP number and the PDOR number (in most cases this is 1). Then click "Create and Download".
  • Send the PDOR file to the MOC
    • You will need a server account write permissions. To get an account email Hualin at hualin.xiao@fhnw.ch or Dan Ryan at daniel.ryan@fhnw.ch
    • If you are not on the FHNW network, you will have to Connect to the FHNW VPN.
    • Copy the PDOR zip file to ESA's STIX GFTS server by opening a terminal and cd to the directory where you saved the IORG file above. Then type sudo scp <IORG filename> <username>@147.86.8.26:~ where <IORG filename> is the name of the IORG file and <username> is the username of your account on the STIX GFTS server.
    • Login into the ESA's STIX GFTS server by typing ssh <username>@147.86.8.26
    • Change permissions on the IORG file: sudo chmod 777 <IORG filename>
    • Move the IORG file from the home directory (where we copied it to above) to the to_moc directory by typing sudo cp ~/<IORG filename> /home/solmoc/to_moc/
