Description

As described in Issue #23008, Gennadiy's implemented functionality in artdaq_database such that a configuration can be marked "invalid". DAQInterface should take advantage of this functionality, throwing an exception if someone provides it the name of an invalid configuration on the config transition. Once this is done, we can deploy the updated DAQInterface on the ProtoDUNE cluster, since part of JIRA Issue 119 is "add support for DAQ run configurations to be marked invalid", and part of that support should be a (loud) failure if someone tries to use an invalid config.

History

#1 Updated by John Freeman 3 months ago

  • % Done changed from 0 to 100
  • Status changed from New to Resolved

Resolved with commit 34cedad0243701a41b8d0eecb50113ed8c98dec1 at the head of the feature/issue23137_only_use_valid_configurations branch. The reviewer may be able to get away with a code inspection, although it would be good to follow the steps described in Issue #23008 to mask off a config and then try to pass it to DAQInterface. Getting DAQInterface to read configs in from artdaq_database rather than the local filesystem is described in the Manual at https://cdcvs.fnal.gov/redmine/projects/artdaq-utilities/wiki/Changing_the_source_of_the_configurations

Setup database:

...
elif [[ "$DAQINTERFACE_FHICL_DIRECTORY" == "IGNORED" ]]; then

   #echo "Put code here which sets up the database environment" 
   PRODUCTS=`awk '/^productsdir_for_bash_scripts:/{print$2}' $DAQINTERFACE_SETTINGS`
   IFSsav=$IFS; IFS=:; for pp in $PRODUCTS;do IFS=$IFSsav
      test -d $pp/ups -a -f $pp/setup && { . $pp/setup; break; }
   done

   setup artdaq_database v1_04_75 -q e17:prof:s82
   export ARTDAQ_DATABASE_URI=mongodb://127.0.0.1/artdaqtest_db

fi
...

loaded the demo simple test config a couple times. I marked one inactive.
Ran that config w/o feature/issue23137_only_use_valid_configurations and the run completed successfully.
Then ran with feature/issue23137_only_use_valid_configurations, specifying inactive config and daqinterface,
as expected, complained about the inactive config:
