This directory contains configuration files for the HOSS system
used  to move raw data to RAID disk as well as copy them to
gluon farm nodes for online skim production.

The symbolic link "hoss_default.config" should point to the file
currently in use. This is what will be used when "start_hoss" is
run if no configuration file is specified explicitly.

In the files shown here, the following naming convention is used:


gen12:      This specifies that only older farm nodes from 2012
            are used for data processing.
       
gen16:      This specifies that only newer farm nodes from 2016
            are used for data processing.

skim:       This indicates that files are copied to RAID, but also
            to farm nodes where full skims are produced.

RAIDonly:   This idicates that files are copied to RAID partitions
            but are not copied to farm nodes for any online processing.

RAID+DB:    This indicates that files are copied to both RAID and
            farm nodes, but that full skims are not produced. The
				raw data files are scanned though for trigger statistics
				which are then entered into the MySQL DB.
