Problems: 

CHIRON was found frozen (neither morning nor afternoon calibrations.)
Around 00:50 UT while moving to HD196446, lost the pointing.
GAI2136-5434_gap ~ 01:50 UT telescope stops tracking: "No response from TCS" + "No response from TCP".  Rebooted Linux machine, found /tmp was full. Hernan and Javier deleted one big file and added an extra power supply (TCS_V was ~ 4.6 and now 5.1V.)
GAI2136-5434_gap failure: integration interrupted and no cal lamp. Needs to be repeated.
