About

DMagic aims to provide easy command-line interface to the APS scheduling system

Basic functionalities include the ability, for the current experiment, to retrieve the users’ email addresses from the APS scheduling as well as experiment information. This infomation can be printed (“show” option) or used to update EPICS PVs (“tag” option)

DMagic supports Globus a tool to automatically create Globus shared folders with users.

DMagic and Globus are designed to help managing the massive amount of data generated at the Advanced Photon Source by providing an automatic way to tag, share, notify and distribute data to users.
