PYTHIA simulation in p+p collisions at 200 GeV using run5 geometry with JP2

Request TypeEvent generator simulation, with filtering
Description

Track pT and JP2 filter for minimum bias events:

The filter is to have a event with the maximum track pT larger than 2.5 GeV/c and pass the JP2 algorithm
500K filtered events (after pT track filter and emc filter), we need ∼5e4 hours and ∼75G disk for *MuDst.root, *minimc.root, and *starsim.log files.

PYTHIA simulation in p+p collisions at 200 GeV using run5 geometry

Request TypeEvent generator simulation, with filtering
Description

Track pT filter for minimum bias event :

The filter is to have a event with the maximum track pT larger than 2.5 GeV/c.
We would request 3M filtered events, which need cpu time ∼7200 hours and disk ∼100G for *MuDst.root, *minimc.root, and *starsim.log files (for counting how many really mb events are generated).

Minutes 

Attendees: Wayne B., Leve H., Jérôme L., Gene V.B.

 

ShiftLog [Leve]:

  • New server:
    • Ready:
      • App copied to new server (Wayne)
        • Successfully passed stability tests (pounding on it)
      • All WARs deployed
      • Scripts ready to flush cache and re-copy WARs
    • To do:
      • Will re-check links to and from RunLog
      • Watcher script not on yet
      • Verify Offline QA Shift Report connections

 

Online infrastructure [Wayne]:

  • New web server:
    • Links on homepage checked
      • Some issues with DB access and privilege from current node name (dean2)
    • New jpgraph version installed in same location as the old one
    • Disk exports are not in place, so content isn't being updated currently
    • Will do another sync over the weekend or early next week, in addition to the final one when we swap servers
    • Ganglia to be installed
    • User accounts to be added
  • New web server backup:
    • Configuration kept the same as main new web server
    • ...but content isn't sync-ed
  • Password rotation completed
  • mysql-devel installed on online linux nodes (RT 2068)
  • Two online disk failures (on onl09 (non-critical) RT 2065 and on onlldap (critical) RT 2067)
    • RAID still providing for the file systems in the interim
  • ITD network backups failing (RT 2069), but resolution from ITD may have just come through
  • Machine replacements:
    • emcsc ready (needs either deployed by tomorrow or ITD block needs postponed)
    • emcspin ready (Monday)
    • starutilities awaiting C-AD software

 

FastOffline [Jerome]:

  • Many files coming into the system, but all are tests, pulsers, etc., so not being processed
  • Some missing detector setup, beam energy, etc. information: could mean misconfiguration, or potentially not properly propagated data

 

QA [Gene]:

  • OnlinePlots switched back to newer EVP server
    • Switching steps still undocumented
  • Pre-combining of FastOffline files still needs tested and configured to be the default
