  Alignment tolerances for the CLIC main damping ring magnetic lattice elements are presented. Tolerances are defined by the design equilibrium vertical emittance of 1 pm rad. The sensitivity of the uncorrected lattice to magnet misalignments is presented. Misalignments considered included quadrupole vertical offsets and rolls, sextupole vertical offsets, and main dipole rolls. Seeded simulations were conducted in MAD-X, and compared with expectation values calculated from theory. The lattice was found to be sensitive to betatron coupling as a result of sextupole vertical offsets in the arcs. Alignment tolerances, BPM and corrector requirements are presented also. For the same misalignment types, the equilibrium emittance of the corrected lattice is simulated. These are compared with expectation values calculated from theory. The vertical alignment tolerance of arc sextupoles is again demanding.

  Offsets in sextupole magnets can be a significant source of coupling in a storage ring and hinder efforts to minimize vertical emittance. Beam offsets in the sextupoles at the Australian Synchrotron Light Source were measured using a response matrix analysis in LOCO with differing magnets strengths. These results were used to obtain an estimate of offset in each sextupole as well as estimate quadrupole contributions to coupling.

  The first operational experience with the transverse bunch-by-bunch feedback system for the storage ring shows a doubling of the lifetime and the ability to damp instabilities caused by IVU gap changes. The system was also used to calibrate the ring by doing simultaneous measurements on several single bunches with different bunch currents. Using the bunch-by-bunch system's capability to excite the beam to large amplitudes, the non-linear beam dynamics were also measured and compared with the model.

  The Australian Synchrotron Light Source has enjoyed several years of stable operations with a high degree of availability. It is now time to move towards top-up operations to improve the stability and integrated flux of the photon beam. This paper describes the steps that have been taken and what remains to be done in order to implement top-up injection as the normal operation mode for the first user runs of 2012.
