Latest news from P2: No major problems with DQM framework System is running smoothly Software updated regularly (thanks Adriana and Barth) Occasional crashes of T00QA, frequent crashes of ZDC01

both under investigation by experts

Implementation of thresholds – status: All detectors have thresholds and automatic checks except

PMD QAchecker still to be implemented by PMD,

TRD*(presentation today)

Propagation of quality flags to GUI color box SSD, EMC, SPD need to check and debug propagation of

quality flags T0, MTR do not have the color box

Shifts and training see dedicated slide

Run 188359 of the 13/09/2012

Thanks to Mihai!

Pilot pA run on 12-13/09 System run smoothly no new plots were implemented dedicated general GUI layout created for the long pA data

taking event size values recorded as reference for the long pA Screenshots taken during pA for each detector have been

sent to the DQM responsibles Available information to already set thresholds and prepare documentation before the long pA

Feedback from pA pilot run

04/09/12

What’s next all detectors have to:

• Make all the necessary changes to the software before the pA

• Add a chapter in the documentation with reference for the pA run + screenshot

Preparation for pA: DEADLINE 04/12/12

subscribe to the alice-dqm-contact-eos@cern.ch mailing list to receive EOS report

Crash logs are now attached to EOS reports Regular cleanups of “former issues” established Blackboard cleanup every Friday by DQM on-call

established

Training 5 general training sessions / 125 people attending Strict policy for DQM training and test has helped

better trained shifters Next shifters training not planned – there are no

more people to be trained that will have shifts before the end of the year

We need more on-call people please volunteer!!! We will have soon an on-call training

Shift booking Shifts booked till the end of the year IMPORTANT change of policy by RC: shifts cannot

be released anymore by user nor SRC: need to find a substitute if cannot attend

Shifts during pA Limited duration of pA run (24 days total) RC will open pA shifts for System Coordinators to

complete Request for very experienced, very best shifters

list of possible shifters for DQM ready the same from the offline side ?

Call to sub-systems for recommendations
