scoreOverview pages

Description

The scoreOverview pages are also called the Shiftleader's page and are linked to the HC monitor, behind ALL INSTRUMENTS.

They provide a history of daily snapshots of the instrument scores, 7 and 30 days deep.

Maintenance

The pages are created by

scoreHC -O

where -O stands for 'overview'. Although a standard dfos tool, this option of scoreHC should not be used by any other account than 'giraffe'. A hard-coded check for the user name is done: if it is not 'giraffe', the tool asks for confirmation. Thereby it cannot be run as automatic cronjob on different QC machines, which would indeed create confusion.

Operationally it runs once per 24 hours as a cronjob on the 'giraffe' account:

# check score status 00 20 * * * . .bashrc; $HOME/bin/scoreHC -O

If necessary, this can be modified by logging in as 'qc_shift' and ssh to that account.

Installation

No installation needed, scoreHC is a standard dfos tool, all accounts have this option.
