schema
=======

--> start working on generating schema from uml usecases
  - looking at schema will help spot missing things
  - will learn how to do it, the sooner the better


Nicole found some problems with EA related to generating
schema
 - sounds like more than what Jacek found while playing
   with prototype schema
 - will summarize and send us
 --> create doc in plone capturing our experience with
   generating schema from EA


Nicole/Russell working on making their schema fully
compliant with LSST use cases


Also, we should start working on 'coding' standard
for schema
 - first step: list issues, things like
   - naming convention
   - varchar vs text vs char
   - etc


Last time we played with prototype schema we found issues
with generating SQLServer-compatible version
  - need to better understand the issues


Action items
- Nicole: summarize problems related to generating schema in EA
  - Jacek: put in plone
- Nicole: send location of your schema model in EAP
- Jacek: coordinate documenting coding standards for schema
- Maria: check sql server compatibility in EA



ingest tests
============

Ani/Maria:
 - have new server (SQL Server 2005/Yukon)
    - there will be some learning curve
 - decided to work on 100 files (100 GB) at a time
 - unzipping takes long time: 2-3 days / 100GB (~8 KB/sec).
   Done on a slower hardware, not the latest server
 - also reformatting to sql server format: striping the \Ns,
   and replacing the lfs with cr/lf (DOS-ifying).
- should be ready to load data in the next couple of days


Jacek:
 - looks like the hardware problems at slac finally solved
   (replacing HBA helped)
 - action item: send to Ani/Maria the C++ test used to
   measure io performance at slac.


Others
======

 - need to finish the cross matching use cases
   - Ani/Maria: check what needs to be done

 - Maria's Provenance Use Case sent on 1/27 to lsst-data
   - ok to put in uml
      - Maria?



Next meeting in 2 weeks.

Jacek

Hi,

We have a Database telecon tomorrow (Wednesday) at 11:00 PST.

Phone number: 866 330 1200
passcode: 300 2363


A fairly light agenda: let's discuss the LSST schema,
in particular
 - how much longer we should be using the existing
   prototype schema
 - when should we start generating lsst schema corresponding
   to what is in uml
 - what schema (and data) to use for future tests


Jacek
