some thoughts from ric

  • 'Instrument' ("hutch") is used to access configDb and create the file path for recording

  • There is no proposed regulation on the 'site' value, so some people will ignore it, some will use their initials and some will do the intended thing

    • .cnfs would need to be changed in order to set it, which may be forgotten

    • Maybe change 'site' to 'instrument_prefix' (better name needed)?

  • There is a worry that 'site' provides the illusion that a given partition is unique in a given site when this is not necessarily so

    • For example, the case when two different site names are given to the same physical site
