(Fermilab all-hands meeting may still be in progress)
------------------------------------------------------------------------

— Adam: How close are to being completely reprocessed Raw2root
— Last night about 9000 had not yet been processed.
— about 5000 jobs waiting…
— Over 90% done.
— Near keep-up mode

— Who can start doing keep up.
— Need someone to take over from Adam.
— Production account,

—  Gavin has been using the Raw2Root files in SAM to fill in files for neutrino search.  
 —  Neutrino data being used well into January.   Played a part in that. 

—  Eric ran the Near Detector beam and cosmic successful onsite and offsite.  
        — reconstruction

— Still need to figure out how to do overlay.  
         —> grab multiple secondaries to mix with a primary.  
     —> suggestion to file a ticket with the Artists.  

— Adam met with Chris and Andrew to discuss LEM mixing
    — So far, script edits a fcl file…
    — ArtSamWrap wraps the “nova” command
    — Hard part: don’t know what file you are going to get until run time.  
    — May need to communicate with the artists on this too 

— Jan — we have a new tag.
    —> PID tests are now ready to go.  Fcl updated.
    —>  algorithm uses to environmental variable to find the PID libraries.  
    —> Now CVMFS location variable is also 
    —>  Eric volunteers to test it offsite today.  
    —>  Includes metadata module update — also NOVA.standard flag.  

— ArtSam wrap is part of IFDHART, but we have a committed version as well.
   —>  Need to make sure that we don’t diverge.  
   —>   Nate needs to forward his changes to Art.  

— Nate:  PCHIT files into SAM today for testing.  

— New category in FTS file — hierarchy 

— Single submit can’t be more than 6000 jobs – if you have multiple submits you might get around that ???  
    —>  Need to understand this better.  
    —>  Limited memory on head node.      

— Eric:  MC question:
      — out of 100,000 events only about 2000 passed selection in cosmic.  (one in 50 spills has a cosmic in it)
      — send around the statistics  

— More FD MC cosmics will be requested. 

— Eric:  database small tests using validity context tables (reco).   Work perfectly.  

— People doing studies with old release may have things broken when Jon updates the validity table.  

— Dataset naming convention and dataset librarian
