h1. Computing and Software status, May 15, 2018

* Software:

** TOF:

*** one PMT channel with hole in the ADC distribution -- needs to be blacklisted & accounted for in the reconstruction

*** Calibrations need to be improved & finalized to try improve efficiency especially for TOF2

**** VP having some issues, DR to interface with him

*** TOF review has been on hiatus, to resume

** Tracker:

*** Geometry description issue

*** Some evidence (?) that the tracker is misaligned for the scattering run period

** EMR

*** bug fix: chi2 calculation

*** bug fix: polystyrene material definition

** Geometry:

*** LH2 window material is incorrect in production geometries -- fix in hand

*** Tracker glue not correctly defined in tracker geometry -- CR has tuned the density

*** DR to push fixes to all Step IV production geometries

*** Standing: description of diffuser aperture & support materials

** MC

*** bug fix: we were not seeing delta electrons due to a bug -- fixed in MAUS trunk

*** bug fix: tracker channel/calibration look up was incorrect in MC digitizer -- fixed in trunk

* Processing:

**  Plan: 

*** make a new release

*** push corrected geometries

*** run MC production

*** reprocess data

* Computing:

** MLCR decomissioning (PF)

*** Equipment & services to be migrated

**** Target: basically done (tested and training to be finalized)

**** CDB: failover next week. One more week for the PPD slave in order to be independent from the MLCR.

**** Backups on GRID: tarballs ready for the Archivist to be moved

**** Switch off: D1 survey next week before turning most of the machines off and final Archiver tarball. PF waiting for survey before turning off IOCs and machines.

*** Computing equipment to be returned

**** QPS computer

**** Geneva computers -- onrec machines being used for local processing, so we'd like to hold on to them as long as possible

* Staffing

** HN's grid roles: agreed that PK + student/Brunel person will take over from Henry

** DM says he will be able to continue supporting GRID productions/processing & if support needed he can lean on Mihailo

* MAUS Paper:

** (Finally) revised draft sent to KL, PF
