Easy installation of SNOMAN ($SNO_TOOLS exists)


If the setup scripts in $SNO_TOOLS already exist (test with ls $SNO_TOOLS after having set this environment variable to the location of the tools), installing SNOMAN is very easy!

Set up environment variables

  1. source appropriate setup script to set environment variables (e.g. source ~dwaller/bin/sno_setup_test.csh).
  2. source $SNO_TOOLS/get_lhost_info.scr.
  3. check that environment variables are all OK...

Install Code

  1. untar and unzip SNOMAN tar file (note that env. var. that you set above should point to SNOMAN code now!)
  2. run $SNO_TOOLS/install_snoman.scr. This will build Fortran files, compile them, and link them against specified libraries. This creates $SNO_CODE/snoman.exe and $SNO_CODE/libsnolib.a.

Test Code

  1. test $SNO_CODE/snoman.exe by running $SNO_CODE/snoman.exe. At first prompt, type @run then hit Enter.
  2. depending on the node, this job should finish in <= 60 seconds. This job generates 100 5.511 MeV electrons. Check the output to screen and 'hbooksm.ntp' to make sure the job ran properly. (Look for many lines like '15 events (   15.0%) processed'.)
Now you can pat yourself on the back and go for a coffee... ;)
