sPHENIX tracking discussion

[Joe Osborn <osbornjd91 AT gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I believe I've got the full workflow running now with daily cronjobs, so the QA will update itself in the evening so that the jobs have the whole day to process if they need to. The landing page is here:

https://sphenix-intra.sdcc.bnl.gov/WWW/subsystem/DataMonitoring/Tracking/

Try clicking some of the links to see the comparison between today's jobs and yesterday's jobs. The plots are displayed via JSRoot and are clickable/zoomable etc like a normal Root canvas.

Right now the plots are copied from the normal Jenkins QA - if there are suggestions for further plots to help monitor things, they can be added in the following repo:

www.github.com/sPHENIX-Collaboration/DataMonitoring.git 

The daily output comes in both SvtxEvaluator form and output from the QA modules and can be found here: 

/sphenix/sim/sim01/sphnxpro/TrackingDailyBuild/

So if you want to see how your local changes compare to the daily build output, you can use the evaluator output in that directory to compare.

At the moment, I blindly copied the QA modules. I'm surprised that the efficiencies reported are so low, but this may have something to do with e.g. the way PYTHIA defines truth particles, so I need to understand better what goes into the plots from the QA modules. But, as far as I can tell, the machinery is up and running.
