Until self-calibration is included in the VLA imaging pipeline it is sometime necessary to run it outside of the workspaces environment.
Step-by-step guide
- Copy the calibrated ms and flagversions table to the working directory in a work area.
- Edit the run_casa.sh and selfcal_script.py to use the current working directory and ms name.
- login to nmpost-master and submit the batch job (sbatch run_casa.sh)
- wait a few days
- The job should email you when done (it may claim the job has failed when in fact to ran OK).
- As vlapipe, move the contents of the project directory from the original workspaces directory for the imaging run somewhere safe (just in case..)
- As vlapipe, copy the contents of the new (with selcal) products directory to the original.
- In the original directory, gunzip the weblog.
- Make a note in the weblog by manually making and editing the qa_notes file in the weblog that the image has been self-calibrated. Also add an internal note that self-cal was performed.
- Submit for phase-2 review as usual
