If you have spaces, typos, invisible characters in your file names, it will CRASH THE PIPELINE so before you update the rdb database, send e-mail to francesco.longo@ts.infn.it  (and copies to focke@slac.stanford.edu   borgland@slac.stanford.edu).  They may ask you to wait for a less critical time(it's the same pipeline for TVAC, you know). Remember, you can use PROC_LEVEL DEV or TEST to run your own reconstruction if you don't want to wait for the pipeline.

Here's one way (by Dave Smith).  From the eLog, click on "list root files" to find the name of the directory on noric where the recon files are. In that directory, you can do a grep. For example,

dsmith@noric06 $ cd /nfs/farm/g/glast/u37/BeamTest06/rootData/700000698/v4r0909p2/recon

dsmith@noric06 $ grep asym *.log
recon-v1r030603p4_700000698_00000-07469.log:XmlBaseCnv           INFO successfully parsed document $(LATCalibRoot)/CAL/CU06/mc_asym.jun8th2006.CU_pass1_Pisa.xml aka /afs/slac.stanford.edu/g/glast/ground/releases/calibrations//CAL/CU06/mc_asym.jun8th2006.CU_pass1_Pisa.xml

dsmith@noric06 $

You can do the same for the other 4 types of CAL calib.xml files that are used in recon, e.g.  ci_intnonlin, peds, mpd, thold.

Gain intercalibration procedure at SPS

Wiki MarkupThe procedure for CAL gain intercalibration at PS and SPS uses the [CalTuple|http://www.slac.stanford.edu/exp/glast/ground/software/status/documentation/EngineeringModel/latest/CalXtalResponse/latest/] of all 4-range readout runs taken at different scanning positions. *It is based on the signal (in MeV) stored in the CalXtalFaceSignalAllRange\[tower\]\[layer\]\[column\]\[side\]\[range\] array*. At SPS we checked the constants obtained at PS (towers 2 and 3), especially for HEX8 for which the lever arm in energy deposit was not so large at PS. We also calibrated tower 1 for which LEX1/HEX8 was not well calibrated at PS.

To intercalibrate gains of each given log end, we summed almost (see below) all runs available (to maximize the statistics) and fitted the profile histogram of R_i (signal for gain #i) vs R_i+1 (signal for gain #i+1) to get the slope. This profile is limited to the events where a) R_i does not saturate, b) R_i+1 < saturation value of R_i and c) the ratio R_i/R_i+1 is close to 1 (within a band parallel to and centered on the y=x line).
