Shipping and Receiving

There are several how-to guides for shipping and receiving (also listed on TWiki: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/viewauth/Atlas/StripsDatabase ):

  • With Web GUI: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/pub/Atlas/StripsDatabase/Database_Tutorial_IV_-_shipping.pdf

  • With an API script ("easy_ship.py" in strips/sensors/shipments/ ): https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/pub/Atlas/StripsDatabase/DB-shipping_instructions_2021-06-27.pdf

  • With another API script ("ship.py" in shipping/ ) : https://indico.cern.ch/event/966861/contributions/4068927/attachments/2124992/3577537/DB-shipping_instructions_2020-09-19.pdf . This one is more interactive.

  • With a 3rd (!) API script ("excel-shipments.py" in shipping/ ): seems targeted for information input from an excel/CSV file.

The API methods may be more convenient for shipping large quantites of DB objects.

Note: shipping objects without SNs present is difficult with any one of the methods.
