AG Open Testing

Overview

This open testing series has been established to help new nodes, those bringing up additional nodes, new operators or users of your nodes, staff testing new equipment, etc.  It is important to have your "local" ag team initially test your respective nodes before entering this or any scheduled event.  Open testing is available with no prior registration necessary.  Just drive your node in :)  However, there will be an agenda, so promptness is very appreciated.  These will run one hour on the 2nd Wednesday of every month.

Producer/Operator, Mary Fritsch, Argonne National Laboratory
