General Design
- A few bits of info:
- 230MB per readout (all 6 APAs, 5ms window)
- Lossless compression: 4
- File size will determine the number of parallel writes and vice versa
- Nominal "max top instantaneous rate" is 3GB/s
- Nominal spill is 4.5s
- Nominal data in spill 13.5GB
- Nominal data out of spill 13.5GB
- Average sustained: 1.2GB/s
- A proposal for the online buffer:DUNE DocDB 1628
XROOTD-FTS Interface
Design Considerations
- ofs.notify can be set to send ASCII messages to a FIFO or a user app/script
- format and content of the message can be configured by the developer
- considerations for blocking of xrootd by the reader of the FIFO
Functionality
- Receive a notification and parse it
- Run a part or all of the metadata generation, write it to a JSON file
- Send a HTTP post to the F-FTS agent
