Minutes

  • We referenced v0.0 of the Test Plan document during the discussion
  • Hall-B currently has 3 relevant items awaiting delivery
    • Computer (expected Sept. 5)
    • 2x U280 FPGA cards (delayed at least 3 months from computer order)
    • Network Switch (expected in October)
  • The switch is intended to host fibers from all VTPs. The switch will reside in the CH.
    • Fibers are not yet installed to connect all VTPs. Only about a dozen are available.
    • Sergey just received word from Chris C. the day before that the installation will not happen until next summer. No further details available yet.
  • VTP Modules:
    • The forward carriage has 18 VTPs with 6 more ordered.
    • Each VTP has 2x10Gbps links
  • Other Modules:
    • Currently, only the FADC modules are capable of streaming.
    • Some CAEN TDCs will be replaced by JLab TDCs next year.
    • There are 3 other board types that are not ready for streaming. These need firmware that Ben Raydo is working on. He is overbooked and the timeline on those updates is not known.
  • Hall-B storage includes a RAID disk capable of 2-3GB/s
  • Patrick Noted that Run Group E will also use a LHD target in addition to the nuclear targets
    • David will update the test plan.
