• This is intended to document the CODA migration from "coda" account to "hccoda" account

CODA configuration

• CODA setup shell script is defined in the log in shell script: .cshrc; The current setup script is: $HOME/bin/coda_user_setup. It defines the CODA software path, EXPID, SESSION etc. It should be merged with coda/coda_scripts/setupCODA3.tcsh. It's better to keep bin/coda_user_setup and leave coda/coda_scirpts/setupCODA3.tcsh as an example.
• "platform" is a system service. It's in /etc/systemd/system/platform.service. The shell script is /home/coda/coda/coda_scripts/coda_platform.sh. Somehow, root uses bash shell, so here CODA variables have to be exported again in bash shell. This should be fixed.

CODA related scripts

• Start of run GUI: the script is added at the jceidt PEB process. For "HMS" at coda@cdaql5, the start of run GUI script is /home/coda/coda/scripts/start_logruninfo.sh. The run number is obtained as an argument in jcedit or using getCurrentRunNumber; $DISPLAY in start_logruninfo.sh determines where the GUI shows up, and it's based on $HOST. Note: if running two CODAs same time, /home/coda/coda/datafile/rcRunNumber will be overwritten by each other.
• End of run log: the script is added at the jceidit PEB process. For "HMS" at coda@cdaql5, the end of run script is /home/coda/coda/scripts/end_of_run-master.sh
• Prescale GUI script: bin/go_prescale_*
