sPHENIX discussion of software

[pinkenburg <pinkenburg AT bnl.gov>]

Hi folks,

the patch for the new inner hcal to put the geometry node on the node 
tree seems to work - the Fun4All_G4_sPHENIX.C does not complain anymore 
and runs through when reading in the newly generated hits files. The new 
output (1000 events each) goes to 
/gpfs02/phenix/prod/sPHENIX/sunyrefnewinnerhcal. The lower energies are 
done already but the 50GeV particles might still run tomorrow (just 
check the file date before opening them). Sorry about the confusion 
today - I punted the geometry issue by setting the cell/tower/cluster 
reco option in the steering macro to false and then forgot about it. Now 
we have 100 events with the old inner hcal implementation under 
/gpfs02/phenix/prod/sPHENIX/sunyref - if someone wants to compare those 
setups.

The updated magnet John just send around will be implemented tomorrow.

And ... drum roll ... sPHENIX code ran under a STAR account (using the 
sphenix setup script) which is a nice confirmation that we don't have 
any hidden dependencies on the PHENIX universe. Kolja came across a 
little issue when creating an executable (we normally use shared 
libraries) which required a one line change in fun4all but it should be 
possible to find a common solution for that.

Another plan is to get the sPHENIX code installed on another cluster 
which will teach us how to deploy this outside rcf without afs on an 
SL6'ish OS.

I'll see you tomorrow,

Chris
