The SLAC PV crawler (runSLACPVCrawler.csh) runs the crawler a couple of times to accommodate the various CD IOC directory structures.
NEW: As of mid-January 2014, the LCLS PV crawler now has a function to crawler $IOC_DATA/<ioc>/IOC.dbDumpRecord files, which contain an IOC's record names and a subset of configured fields. This file is waaaaaay simpler to crawler than the any ioc's st.cmd syntax. If IOC.dbDumpRecord is found, it will be crawled. If the file is not found, the old crawler code will operate on the ioc's st.cmd file.
At the same time, the FACET PV crawler scripts were modified to use share the LCLS crawler code, so IOC.dbDumpRecord files are also crawled for FACET.
