Yes, more than half of 1p5 mm data has issue with event flags.

Attached file show affected and good 1.5 mm Runs.

Both affect the svt flags that Rafo noticed in some runs in pass7.  Rafo, what fraction of the 1.5 and 0.5 data does this affect?  If it’s a significant amount, an SVT expert may want to try to remedy this within a couple weeks when the rest of pass7 will be finished.  I remember it being said that for missing bias archive data, it was easy to tell from the noise in the data.

All of the other flags looked correct (ie, the fraction of events rejected reflected the fraction that I would expect to fail).  In order to determine whether or not to set this flag, the EvioToLcio checks to see which time ranges in the database had good bias.  These time ranges were uploaded (I assume by Sho), using the bias values from Mya.  The bias values in Mya are listed as "undefined" for anything prior to  2015-05-05 13:44:52.875:

Some SVT expert will need to take a look at this.  And maybe Sebouh can take a look, he did it for 2016.  Has anyone ever really had good SVT tracks from any of these runs?
