2. cdfsoft migrate
S. Rolli found the problem: in the diagnostic code
Change in results by itself is minor
change in 5’th decimal place when near 0 gives a sign change
She is proceeding with the rest of the tests, expect to hear today

3. cdfsoft mc.migrate
Lynn is starting with the changes required for migrate
Experts agreed that the code changes were appropriate
10-Feb-2010

4. Non-Critical Upgrades: Oracle
Oracle instant_client on fcdfbld5 for testing
D.Box suggested we rebuild with instant_client and test TrigSim++, ProductionExe with DB_DEBUG set to –1
Some scripts need review: reference Oracle directory
Stntuple uses some include files not found in oracle_instant_client

5. Non-Critical Upgrades: rootd
Rootd and xrootd: 4.04/02 testing
Entire cdfsoft code base tested: Problems found
rootcint doesn't recognize max_block_size in CLTD_StorableBank: Old problem? Needs hack
Changes in underlying TBRIK for TEdBrik: still have missing graphics routines Partly fixed
Problem with a .cxxd treated as a makefile with a “bad separator”
Ignoring Level3

7. Various
Request sent to physics group leaders asking what they need for validation.
So far no suggestions
Only detailed response proposed that extensive validation isn’t required
Prospective 7.1 release will need extensive validation
The longer we wait the harder it will be

?40K is handy
Review patches for use w/ 6.1.4mc.migrate
YES: mc

Check versions of java/perl/tcl
R.Snider, LGarren
java x, perl 5.8.8, tcl 8.4; looks like a go
"
SLC5(lxplus5) vs SLF5; grid machines, CMS, Atlas
Jnb note
Fermi additions to SLF5 seem unimportant
Document migrate changes
Need /web page documentation of new release
instant_client Oracle
?D. Box?
?Interface same? Test
root 4.00vs 4.04
R.Culbertson, J.Bellinger
problems: may need packaging massaging
dcap declared as current
No but
Releases from now on should do this
cvsroot command fixed No
Fixed in development
dbfrontier in code
Yes: 616 ?
R.Snider and S.Lammel?
Snider to make sure this is understood
