===hcana How-To (IFarm version)===

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

<pre>
# 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

# Get HallC_Replay scripts
cd $HOME/Analysis
git clone https://github.com/JeffersonLab/hallc_replay
cd hallc_replay
ln -s /cache/hallc/spring17/raw/ ./	#Change Spring17 if needed

#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

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

Now that you can execute <code>$hcana</code> You are ready to go!
