+We run decay type 1, Kch2pipi0 simulations with software version v7/r193 at IC, RAL, GLA, LIV and BIR. Revision 193 is 5 times faster so we will run 6000 events runs. More sites will be included in the production, as soon as the software is installed on them. Check here for current status.

+We run decay type 10,  Kch2pipipi simulations with software version v9/r261 at IC, RAL, GLA, LIV, BIR and UCL. We run 6000 events jobs.

+Production jobs from the Kch2pipi0-1 production round have decay type 1, description set to "Kch2pipi0-1 production round", 1500 events for v6 runs and 6000 events for v7 runs. Please pay attention when submitting jobs.

When the Kch2pipi0-1 production round is done, we will switch to the next round, which is Kch2munu-1 (decay type 30). For Kch2munu, it takes only 1 s per event, so we could run 40000-50000 events jobs. Check jobs table to extract these statistics.

+When this is done, and if this wiki is not updated, continue with the next production on the list, moving upwards on the page.
  This wiki section will be updated often, so please check carefully before your shift. If you find any discrepancies, please notify Dan and Janusz immediately. Read the logbook/blog for more up-to-date information: http://na62shifts.wordpress.com

+Until Ganga is available, MC jobs should be submitted manually. The person overseeing the production (the "shift" taker) will have to check periodically if everything goes according to plan, and
  intervene if possible to fix the error(s)
  notify the production coordinator if not possible to directly intervene to rectify the error
 The person in charge must do the following:
 

 check current production status from the wiki and from our logbook

+ keep an eye on the jobs list and make sure we have 200 jobs RUNNING at all times and not more than 50 SCHEDULED.  Please note that these numbers will change when new resources are added. Check this number at the beginning of each shift.

  if queue is low (less than 100 RUNNING), use online script creator to submit a new batch of jobs

  re-validate results weekly (every Monday) with the physics group (email Tonino to check the outputs on CAstor)
