artdaq

Here is the email from Enrico:

Moreover, about ranking:

The boardreaders have ranks from 0 to X, eventbuilders X to Y, aggregators Y to Z and finally RoutingMaster Z+1
I didn't receive any requirement for the RoutingMaster rank so can you also check this?

Hi all,
Giovanna mentioned me that, with the new artdaq release, event builders are doing also the data logging part.

Since I have to reshuffle the FSM a bit, I would like to ask you what are the requirement (and exceptions) to follow in the new situation, as for example order of configure and start/stop.

The current situation is:

CONFIGURE: configure is sent to all artdaq processes at the same time except in the BoardReaders node in which the timing is configured (completing the transition) before the other types.

START: RoutingMaster ; Aggregators (DataLoggers + Dispatcher) ; EventBuilders, BoardReaders (again timing before others) ; OnlineMonitor and InhibitMaster

STOP: OnlineMonitor and InhibitMaster ; BoardReaders (again timing before others) ; EventBuilders ; Aggregators (DataLoggers + Dispatcher) ; RoutingMaster

Exceptions:
- daq.shutdown command is not sent to Dispatchers
- processes are killed after DataLoggers go to UNKNOWN

Is this logic confirmed, of course removing the DataLoggers from the logic?

Thank you,
Enrico
