Optionally, the user can also request that only the data for one or more calibrator fields is provided. In this case, the user needs to specify the exact name(s) of the fields and no entitlement check will be carried out since calibrator data are immediately public.

The EU ARC personnel creates one email per MOUS.

The emails are generated via a script on

The database queries to achieve this were developed together with F. Stoehr. AOG is maintaining the queries.

If the user is entitled (i.e. is the PI or a delegee as identified by the user email), AOG also checks if the MOUS is in state delivered and if the MOUS is not in state QA3InProgress.

If the calfield parameter is set (i.e. the user is only requesting calibrator data), the user is always entitled to obtain the data and the database query is skipped.

If the user is entitled (i.e. is the PI or a delegee as identified by the user email or only calibrators were requested), AOG also checks if the MOUS is in state delivered and if the MOUS is not in state QA3InProgress.

Only if these conditions are met, AOG goes ahead and starts the creation of the calibrated MS.

This will trigger jobs on the EU ARC cluster.

The optional X CALFIELD is only typed when a calfield line was provided in the request email.

Examples:

stagecalms.sh 2019.1.00337.S uid://A001/X14d7/X160 18704

stagecalms.sh 2019.1.00337.S uid://A001/X14d7/X160 18704 X "J0217-0820,J0238+1636"

Up to two stagecalms instances can be run at the same time.

The typical terminal output of the command looks like this

Line: 284 to 307

which indicates that the required CASA version is so old that it needs to be run on a special RHEL5 machine. This message is just for information.

If the calfield was provided, the output starts with

*** Based on your selection, only data for field <calfield name(s)> will be staged. ***

Re-use of existing calibrated MSs on almasciencedev

stagecalms has the special feature that it will minimise the computing effort for the data calibration

Line: 360 to 388

Once the helpdesk person receives the email with the download link from AOG, he./she copies and pastes the email into a last comment on the ticket and closes the ticket.
