<div dir="ltr">Hello Mark and all,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>After a number of interruptions, I finally finished the
roll-out of a container-based osg production framework for
Gluex simulations. Please have a look at the git project
linked below. It contains two scripts that give everything you
need to try it. This is bound to be somewhat rough at first,
but let me know how it goes.</div>

</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The sim-recon build that is configured for osg production
right now is based on version.2.11.xml from the <a
href="http://halldweb.jlab.org/dist" moz-do-not-send="true">http://halldweb.jlab.org/dist</a>
area, which looks like the latest stable release. Still, it is
not very stable. This is probably because of the fast
development over the past few months of calibrations for real
data, and the lack of corresponding exercising of the code on
Monte Carlo. A minimal checkout and run of the distro job
script submits a job with 40 slices of 250 events each
generated with bggen, simulated with hdgeant4, passed through
hd_root for REST production, and through hd_root again for
plugins analysis. When I tested it, only one of the 40 jobs
crashed:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>*** Error in `hd_root': free(): invalid pointer:
0x00002baa1c394ff8 ***</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>with 37 completing successfully, and 2 others bombing out
of hd_root for other reasons. At this point, I would like to
pass things back to the reconstruction/analysis gurus. I could
work on diagnosing and fixing these bugs, but as I discovered
with the "hd_root hanging" bug last week, there is a good
chance that some of these bugs are known and fixed in somedev
dev branch of the sim_recon tree or jana repo.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please have a look and try things out. Let me know if/when
you run into issues. I will update the HOWTO on the wiki once
we get a little further into the learning curve. Right now,
you can rely on the README in the git project linked above for
docs.</div>
