Generation of FITS files is a second step in the reprocessing and has only been run on the first year of data. Stay tuned...

NOTE: One run, 242429468, of type TrigTest was declared 'good for science' and has been included.

Progress at the 1-year mark:

Status chronology

• 2/13/2012 - begin trials with final calibration and alignments from Leon; 5 runs reprocessed
• 2/14/2012 - trials continue with blocks of 15, 20, 25 and 50 runs reprocessed (each run generates ~20 batch jobs)
• 2/16/2012 - begin trickleStream production. Initial config:

• 2/21/2012 - One clump reprocessed with pointer to new mySQL DB (stream 710.0)
• 2/22/2012 - 776 runs complete. Pausing task.
• 3/15/2012 - resume task. New goal is 1-year of data (~5600 runs)
• 3/31/2012 - 1-year complete (5600 runs). There have been a few nasty problems which need to be fixed before continuing.

  S/W component	bug fix	status
  New ROOT version	5-min 'transaction timeout' triggered by xroot data server reboot	done 4/3/2012
  New GlastRelease	1) include new ROOT version (above); 2) exit with non-zero RC on ROOT write error	done 4/5/2012, GR 17-35-24-rp04
  New GPL_TOOLS	check size/checksum of file written to xroot with known size/checksum	pending
  Tuned xroot on new Dell servers	silent file truncation when volume fills up JIRA	done 4/4/2012 (100 MB min space limit -> 100 GB; file system space check cadence changed from 10 min to 2 min)
  New xroot client tools	complain when xroot data server fails on write	done 4/3/2012, v3.1.1
  New TSkim	1) new ROOT version (above); 2) complain on ROOT write errors	done 4/5/2012, v08-02-01
  New xroot redirector	required step toward enabling HPSS staging	done 4/3/2012, v3.1.1

  Note also that the FILTEREDMERIT files contain 42 more events than the EXTENDEDFT1 files; they should be identical.
• 4/5/2012 - resume task. New goal is entire science dataset.
• 4/10/2012 - Unknown 'glitch' may have caused a few 100's of jobs to crash and take sulky46 along with them.
• 4/11/2012 - 10:40pm lightening strikes SLAC power lines. Site-wide power outage. Stream 7795 was the last stream submitted prior to the outage.
• 4/12/2012 - due to possible overload of sulky46/u18 writing a lot of core files, have introduced one change to processClumps.py: prepend "ulimit -c 0;" to gleam command to disable all core file generation. This starts approx with run 7605 (+/-).
• 5/9/2012 - major pipeline issue...shut down pipeline and allow to drain (due to tomorrow's major outage)
• 5/10/2012 - 13:40 outage over.
  • Update GR from 17-35-24-rp04 to 17-35-24-rp07 in which the only change is replacing the 5-minute xroot time-out with 8 hours. This change effective with stream 14314 and previously failed pieces of four other runs: 14247.6, 14273.23, 14274.8, 14231.9.
  • Leon advises that as of today, calibrations are valid only thru ~15 Dec 2011 (run 345574915) - which is somewhere around stream 18,400. He asks Sasha to produce more up-to-date calibs.
• 5/18/2012 - all calibrations now valid through 6 May 2012. No need to pause P202 task.
• 5/28/2012 - 15:30 Complete (through 31 March 2012)
