WR based Timing Configuration - How to update the Timing Event List

IMPORTANT: This is intended for FESA core developers.

From time to time additional timing events are defined. Such events are stored in a database which is tended by CSCOTG.

The WR based timing events for use by FESA developers are stored in a configuration file in /common/usr/timing/groupsAndEvents/TimingConfigurationWR_V1.xml.

To update this configuration file a simple Python tool exists. This tool extracts the timing configuration from the database and stores it in an XML file.

Usage

To run the tool use the script createWRTimingConfiguration. The WR based timing configuration file will be created in the users home directory with a timestamp.

This file should be copied to /common/usr/timing/groupsAndEvents/ as TimingConfigurationWR_V1.xml for usage by FESA developers.
