Workflow information system for QC

Execution times of dfos tools

Certain dfos tools are operationally critical since they close the QC loop between the Paranal Observatory and QC Garching. In particular, these are:

• calChecker (monitoring the calibration plan completeness)
• autoDaily (providing incremental processing of daytime calibrations and feeding back product quality and instrument health information).

These tools need to provide a near-realtime feedback and are therefore called by cronjobs in regular intervals, typically once or twice per hour. Their performance is critical for the QC process and is measured by this execution time monitor.
