======= Update Notes -- --Friday, 20 May 2005 =========

2005-05-20 ler 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
In support of minimizing access of the /u/pshare directory  by the 
cluster wide cronjob "/usr/pppl/sbin/mk_dirs.cron", the job now checks
the change date of file
  /usr/pppl/cppg/hosts/all/u/pshare/globus/sysrc_chk.
to determine if the /local transp directories must be remade.

This is kept uptodate by doing the following whenever file 
/u/pshare/globus/.sysrc is changed.

# As pshare on portal or transpgrid
/bin/touch --reference /u/pshare/globus/.sysrc \
  /usr/pppl/cppg/hosts/all/u/pshare/globus/sysrc_chk

After the stagein/stageout of the TRANSP PBS jobs is changed to create
the directories dynamically when needed, this  cronjob will no longer be
required.
