	The 3rd generation light source ALBA is in the process of being commissioned. The full energy 3 GeV booster synchrotron was commissioned in the during 2010, ramping the beam from extracted from the LINAC from an energy of 110 MeV to the 3 GeV required for injection in the storage ring. The lattice is based in combined function bending magnets, providing a small emittance beam (< 12 nmrad) at extraction. This paper reviews the agreement between the optics modeling and the measures performed during the commissioning, with special regard to the optics measurement during the ramping process. The results from the magnetic measurement for the combined magnets while ramping are included in the model to explain the movement of the tunes during the ramp.

	At the ALBA Synchrotron light source 6 kicker and 3 septa magnets are installed for beam injection and extraction. A 100 MeV beam coming from the linac is injected on axis into the Booster. The full energy (3 GeV) beam is extracted from the booster and injected into the Storage Ring, where 4 kicker magnets bring the stored beam close to the septa. All septa are direct driven out-of-vacuum magnets with C shape iron laminated yoke. The magnets are excited by a full sine approx. 300 μs pulse length; the nominal field is 0.15/0.84/0.9 T (booster injection/extraction/storage-ring-injection). The stray field seen by the stored beam is less than 1 μT. The booster kicker magnets are in-vacuum magnets with C-ferrite yoke. The magnets are excited by a 0.4 μs flat top pulse; the nominal field is 0.03/0.04 T (booster injection/extraction). The storage ring kickers have a C-ferrite yoke and a 0.4 μm Ti coated ceramic vacuum chamber. The excitation is done by 6 μs half sine; the nominal field is 0.13 T. The paper will present the design of the elements and their magnetic characteristics. First results of their behaviour during commissioning will also be discussed.

	The ALBA injector made of a 100 MeV linac, operating at 110 MeV, and a full energy (3 GeV) booster synchrotron has been routinely in operation since October 2010. The stability of the linac and of the booster on reliability and performance is examined. Also results on the beam performance obtained with the installed diagnostic equipment will be discussed.

The ALBA injector made of a 100 MeV linac, operating at 110 MeV, and a full energy (3 GeV) booster synchrotron has been routinely in operation since October 2010. The stability of the linac and of the booster on reliability and performance is examined. Also results on the beam performance obtained with the installed diagnostic equipment will be discussed.
