Hi Stefan,
My colleague Tobi Raufer (tobi.raufer@stfc.ac.uk) has tested this new implementation and
sent me the following questions:

[quote="Renee Poutissou"]I have tested the new subrun functionality a bit more and I have two observations. First, it seems to work on a basic level, i.e.
subruns are created, which are equal in size. However, I can't relate their size to the byte limit set in the ODB.[/quote]

(catching up on recent changes from t2k and pienu)
Various timeout problems fixed:

07 May 2009, Konstantin Olchanski, Info, RPC.SHM gyration
|
When using remote midas clients with mserver, you may have noticed the zero-size .RPC.SHM files
these clients create in the directory where you run them. These files are associated with the semaphore
created by the midas rpc layer (rpc_call) to synchronize rpc calls between multiple threads. This

07 May 2009, Konstantin Olchanski, Info, mhttpd now uses mtransition
|
mhttpd function for starting and stopping runs now uses cm_transition(DETACH) which spawns an
external helper program called mtransition to handle the transition sequencing. This helps with the old
problem of looking at a blank screen for a long time if some frontends take a long time to process run

07 May 2009, Konstantin Olchanski, Info, SQL history documentation
|
Documentation for writing midas history data to SQL (mysql) is now documented in midas doxygen files
(make dox; firefox doxfiles/html/index.html). The corresponding logger and mhttpd code has been
committed for some time now and it is used in production environment by the t2k/nd280 slow controls

> - cm_transition() timeouts now settable from ODB (/experiment/transition timeout, transition connect timeout). Rev 4479
transition connect timeout was actually only half of that specified because of an error in computing timeout arguments to the select() system

A new feature has been implemented in revision 4561 which allows runs with a
certain duration. To use this, one has to set the variaable
