Here are some various tips to run QC

The multinode QC configuration is useful when running QC on EPN/FLP/DCS machines i.e. when several machines are observing different fractions of the TOF data.

• The local machines are machines that run the QC directly on data usuall there are more than one.
• The remote machine is responsible for the merging and checking of the data
• On the QCDB the merged output will be under the name of the LOCAL tasks!
• QC on local machines should have specified the name of the machine.
• It's very important to specify --local --host localnode1 for local machines and --remote for remote machine. localnode1 is the alias of the machine defined inside the configuration JSON.

An example is the following:

# First local QC process
o2-raw-file-reader-workflow -b --input-conf TOFraw.cfg --loop 1000 | \
    o2-tof-compressor -b --shm-segment-size 10000000000 | \
    o2-tof-reco-workflow -b --input-type raw --output-type digits | \
    o2-qc -b --config json://${$QUALITYCONTROL_ROOT}/toffull_multinode.json --local --host localnode1 &

# Second local QC process
o2-raw-file-reader-workflow -b --input-conf TOFraw.cfg --loop 1000 | \
    o2-tof-compressor -b --shm-segment-size 10000000000 | \
    o2-tof-reco-workflow -b --input-type raw --output-type digits | \
    o2-qc -b --config json://${$QUALITYCONTROL_ROOT}/toffull_multinode.json --local --host localnode2 &

# Third local QC process
o2-raw-file-reader-workflow -b --input-conf TOFraw.cfg --loop 1000 | \
    o2-tof-compressor -b --shm-segment-size 10000000000 | \
    o2-tof-reco-workflow -b --input-type raw --output-type digits | \
    o2-qc -b --config json://${$QUALITYCONTROL_ROOT}/toffull_multinode.json --local --host localnode3 &

# Remote QC process
o2-qc -b --config json://${$QUALITYCONTROL_ROOT}/toffull_multinode.json --remote
