– Results will be published but are not supported. Staff will not be available to answer questions about Op Day 4/3.
• Network Model Update
– Last load occurred 4/1• An updated settlement points and MP short name list is posted at
http://nodal.ercot.com/readiness/markettrials/index.html
– Next scheduled loads are 4/14 and 5/3• Note that the target previously communicated for weekly loads has been moved back. Will

Market Participant Inbound Questions
Last Week This Week
http://nodal.ercot.com 11
Day-to-day operations summary: Planned / Unplanned Outages
• Planned Outages– 03/29/10 – 03/30/10 06:00 P.M – 06:00 P.M
• Outbound notifications were turned off as a result of operating day tests conducted on the NPROD environment. Affected notification deliveries associated with MMS and OS submissions.
• Unplanned Outages– 03/26/10 09:00 A.M. – Ongoing
• Market Manager UI experiencing intermittent periods of unavailability and / or degradation in performance
• Teams have identified a potential resolution and are working to re-create this in the test environment
• Work-arounds have been implemented in the Nodal Production environment and have stabilized the issue until a permanent fix is identified
– 03/31/10 – 03/31/10 Open• MPs were unable to access LRS reports via MIS reports page. A defect has been logged
and users were provided a workaround for downloading the report.– 03/31/10 – 04/01/10 08:00 A.M – 7:00 A.M
• MPs were unable to access Outage Scheduler UI as result of network firewall block.– 04/01/10 – 04/01/10 2:15 P.M – 3.15 P.M
• Experienced access issues with Market Manager and OSUI applications. Exception occurred as a result of unplanned hardware failover.
Environment Report-Known Issues
New DAM/RUC/SASM known issues
• Awards are displaying incorrectly and incompletely on the Market Manager for Energy Only Offers and Energy Bids. Please use the link for ‘Download XML’ to view the full day’s worth of awards
http://nodal.ercot.com 12
Environment Report-Known Issues
New DAM/RUC/SASM known issues
• Trade confirmation notifications are failing for certain QSEs
• The trade confirmation notification that follows the cancellation of a confirmed trade is currently returning a verb of ‘created’. This will be changed to ‘canceled’.
• Market Manager – when entering AS self-arrangement for RRS, you must enter values for RRSGN, RRSLD, and RRSNC, even if that value is zero. The error message is vague if you do not enter all the values, and the fields are not highlighted to show the source of the error.
• The error returned when submitting an AS self-arrangement for RRSNC that exceeds the 50% limit for RRS from Load Resources references an AS Obligation with 2 significant digits after the decimal. It should only have 1.
http://nodal.ercot.com 13
Environment Report-Known Issues
MIS/reports issues
• Some QSEs can only see the Load Ratio Share report if they access it through the portlet ‘QSE Forecasts and Load’ on the Day-Ahead Market page, whereas no report is returned if accessed through the Reports and Extracts Index. Please use the portlet until this is fixed. The underlying cause is still under investigation.
– Reminder that this report also has an issue with missing hour 0100
• DAM LMP, DAM SPP, and DAM MCPC reports posted twice – once at 1230 and once when DAM was complete. The triggers will be fixed.
– The extraneous DAM SPP reports were removed when we did the manually reposting discussed earlier
• Settlement Points and Settlement Points to Electrical Buses Mapping did not post but is targeted to begin posting next week.
http://nodal.ercot.com 14
Environment Report-Known Issues
MIS/reports issues
• The following Market Information Web Services were turned off until late yesterday:
– Aggregated AS Offer Curves
– AS Service Plan
– Total AS Offers
– Total Load (late item from Phase 3)
– Total Energy (the associated report is not on – no data)
• Reminder that the following reports are on hold and are targeted to be delivered with 4/9 release.
– NP4-192-CD DAM Total Energy Purchased
– NP4-193-CD DAM Total Energy Sold

MP16 Day-Ahead Market Participation
GREEN scores (adequate participation) will light up on 4/7 after two DAM runs.
AMBER/RED scores (inadequate participation) will light up on 4/21 after 6 DAM runs
QSEs will be contacted starting 4/12 if less than 50% participation
Nodal Scorecard Reminder

Special Topics
Bid/Offer efficiencies• ERCOT has identified efficiencies in Bid/Offers submission with regard
to the format of submission• This applies to all transaction that use a Bid ID or an Offer ID (Energy
Only Offers, Energy Only Bids, PTP Obligation Bids, and CRR Offers)• Preference is for QSEs to submit the same Bid/Offer ID for each hour
in the submission, versus submitting a different Bid/Offer ID for every hour. The market system treats the submission the exact same way, regardless of which way it is submitted
• This preference is due to system performance, and if most QSEs use the preferred method, more bids and offers can be submitted before DAM sizing limits are exceeded
• For xml examples detailing this issue, please view a document that will be posted along with this presentation on the calendar page at http://www.ercot.com/calendar/2010/04/20100402-MT
http://nodal.ercot.com 17
Special Topics
Multi-hour blocks for curve submissions
• When you submit an Energy Only Offer or an Energy Bid, you have the choice of submitting using fixed, variable or curve types. Further, you can create a multi-hour block that will ensure that your bid/offer is awarded the same quantity for all hours in the block.
• It was identified that the system cannot handle multi-hour blocks for curve submissions. The functionality was disabled, so if a QSE submits a multi-hour block with a curve indicator, DAM will remove the multi-hour block prior to clearing and QSEs will receive awards of differing quantities for each hour
• Protocol section 4.4.9.5.1 and 4.4.9.6.1 only calls out multi-hour blocks for fixed and variable submissions
• Documentation will be updated, and the issue will be discussed at NATF on 4/6.
