Workbook for BaBar Offline Users - Special for LBL
Workbook for BaBar Offline Users - Special for LBL
Special instructions for users running at LBL.
Work as at SLAC
The general setup at LBL is made to be a close as possible to the
setup at SLAC.
-
The machines to log into at LBL are called online05.lbl.gov and
online06.lbl.gov.
These machines are Alphas, and hence BFARCH is OSF1V4.
Directories
-
The user home directories are same for most users as at SLAC
(therefore you must have an AFS home directory). Some local LBL users
use their local NFS directories.
-
ssh should be used to log in to make sure you get an AFS token (this
is the only method for online06).
-
Use the command newrel -s /work/akadem/<user> -t ... to
place the libraries and binary files on the local disk.
-
Some xtc files can be found in /home/babardata/xtcdata.
Releases
At LBL the BFROOT is the same as at SLAC.
Database
-
There is no production databases a LBL.
-
However, production databases at SLAC should be accessible identically
to working at SLAC.
Batch Queues
There are no batch queues available at LBL at the moment. If you wish
to run jobs on the LBL machines please use nice to ensure
interactive users get priority.
Support
Support is available for running the BaBar software at LBL:
-
For problems with the setup at LBL Stephen J. Gowdy <SGowdy@lbl.gov> . Check the
release pages for any hints before reporting a problem.
-
For general BaBar problems, i.e. problems which are the same at LBL
and at SLAC use the HyperNews.
