<p>There is a <a rel="nofollow" class="external text"

meeting</a> on the BlueJeans site. Use your JLab
credentials to access it.
</p>
<p>Note: Mark started the meeting in the wrong BlueJeans
meeting room so remote participants did not get the full
experience of the meeting. Like none. Apologies from the
chair.

href="https://mailman.jlab.org/pipermail/halld-offline/2019-August/003746.html">New
version set: version_4.8.0.xml</a> Several packages
received update releases in this version set. There
was a glitch rolling out the new default version last
Friday (version set-up would not work), but it got
fixed before noon.</li>
<li> Due to schedule conflicts, the HDGeant4 meeting
time has changed. It will be at 2 pm rather than 3 pm.
It will be held every other Tuesday as before.</li>

of the Minutes from the Last Meeting</span></h3>
<p>We went over <a

title="GlueX Software Meeting, August 20, 2019">the
minutes from August 20</a>.

<ul>
<li> Beni wondered if the TPOL people were concerned
about having a <b>partial sample of the PS triggers</b>
collected during online skims. David reported that he
had not received any communication on this.</li>
<li> <b>NERSC processing</b>. David reported the batch
1 of the Fall 2018 data processing is essentially done
and jobs for batch 3 were started at NERSC over the
weekend in the low priority pool. We have received an
additional 4 mega-units from unused allocations of
other users at the NERSC. Batch 2 is in progress on
the JLab farm. In addition batch 4 has started the
Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center using an "advance"
allocation while our proposal is being evaluated. The
advance is 10% of the full allocation and should get
us through about half of batch 4. This means we are
now running at three facilities at once.</li>

History Plots of Offline Computing Resource Usage</span></h3>
<p>Mark described a system he has developed to capture
time histories of any quantity of interest. He has
deployed it to track data on offline computing resource
usage by Hall D at JLab. See <a rel="nofollow"
