Tape export from FCC


Each institution is encouraged to make an estimate at what data they will want to copy from Fermilab to offsite. Please send your idea to the ICRH list or just to myself. I will collect the data, summarise the requests and report them to CD Networking group and CDF Offline Management so that both tape copies and network copies needs can be taken into account.

A tape export facility with limited capability (about 10 tapes/day) is currently planned at FCC for CDF. This is being delayed by lack of manpower for the user interface, estimated in 3 months of one physicist, to be counted as service work toward authorship. People who feel like contributing, should contact Terry Watts.


A non-encouraging update on tape export is in the ICRB Jan24, 2002 meeting minutes
