SHMS Aerogel Cherenkov detector commissioning plan

Software (Analyzer)

Information you should read

Do and Don't do Start from slide 8 (Go to a Data Analysis Workshop if you have the chance, it is around the same date of JLab user meetings).
Filesystem explanation You will need to read it you don't know where you are (if $pwd and $whoami are not enough)
Analysis workshop slides Go through these slides

hcana How-To (IFarm version)

All the analysis can be done from ifarm, no need to use cdaql* computers

# JLab Login
ssh -Y username@login.jlab.org
ssh ifarm

# On Ifarm
mkdir $HOME/Analysis
cd $HOME/Analysis

# Build hcana from source code
git clone https://github.com/JeffersonLab/hcana
cd hcana
git submodule init		#hcana depends on podd (HallA Analyzer)
git submodule update		#so we also need podd's source code
scons				#compile

#If errors are given then delete old hcana, then in the same place and from ifarm1401:
source /apps/root/5.34.36/setroot_CUE.csh
git clone git@github.com:JeffersonLab/hcana.git
cd hcana
source setup.csh
git submodule init
git submodule sync
git submodule update
make
scons -j10

# Get HallC_Replay scripts
cd $HOME/Analysis
git clone git@github.com:JeffersonLab/hallc_replay.git
cd hallc_replay
ln -s /cache/hallc/spring17/raw	#Change Spring17 if needed
ln -s /volatile/hallc/spring17/<your username>/ROOTfiles
ln -s ../hcana/hcana

#Ask Brad Sawatzky <brads@jlab.org> to create a directory 
#in the /volatile file system and grant you access to it

mkdir /lustre/expphy/volatile/hallc/spring17/$USER/ROOTfiles		#Change Spring17 if needed
ln -s /lustre/expphy/volatile/hallc/spring17/$USER/ROOTfiles ./		#Change Spring17 if needed

# Make sure the run kinematics are defined here:
# hallc_replay/DBASE/SHMS/STD/standard.kinematics

# Replay can be done with:
hcana "SCRIPTS/SHMS/PRODUCTION/replay_production_all_shms.C(RunNumber,-1)" #-1 Replay all available events 
# can take long

cd $HOME/Analysis
source hcana/setup.csh
source hallc_replay/setup.csh
alias hcana='$HOME/Analysis/hcana/hcana'

Now that you can execute $hcana You are ready to go!
