masdmp

NAME

masdmp- scan mock aofits spectral line files outputing info on each scan

SYNTAX

masdmp{--help --proj=projid --date=yyyymmdd --grp=0/1 --bm=bm --band=band} filename

ARG

filename: file to scan. this is ignored if --proj,--date, --grp, or --bm is specified .

Options

--help output help message and exit
---proj=projId file search for project projId (eg a2010)
--date=yyyymmdd file search for file on day yyyymmdd (eg 20100501)
--grp=grp file search for files in grp 0 or 1
--bm=bm file search for files in bm 0 thru 6.
--band=band file search for band 0 or 1 (note single pixel is always band 1).

The search options can be combined to further limit the search. Files are searched in the standard location at ao (/share/pdataN/pdev)

DESCRIPTION

masdmp will scan one or more mock aofits spectral line fits files and output info on each scan found (remember that each mock file contains a single scan). If one of the search options is included, then any filename input will be ignored, and a global search in the default online directories will be made using the criteria specified by the options (but watch out you don't try to search through 1000's of files).

Notes:

Single pixel observations:

They only use band=1 . You need to specifiy band=1 in this case or the files will not be found.
bm=0..6 are the (up to)7 frequency bands recorded.

This routine will not work away from AO since it is looking in the /share/pdataN directories.
Beware of long run times:

There are 10000's of mock files on the raid arrays (maximum disc space of 70 terra bytes). You should never try to search through all the files (eg.. masdmp band=0 is a no-no).

Speeding up searches:

run masdmp on one of the fast servers: galfas(1-3) summer(1-2).
limit the search to a single project id.
limit the search to a single bm. This will speed things up by a factor of 7.
limit the search to a single day.
specfiying a single band
