The main log file of THOR contains every command line that THOR has executed and is very comprehensive. Only a person who is well acquainted with THOR can follow the steps taken in this log file and it is only intended to be read for error searching. THOR generates a second log file within the program itself. In this log file only the main steps of the program procedure are written down and it should be easy to follow for everyone. This log file is mailed to the shifter when THOR makes the stop of the second level process.
The file misscass.txt also contains valuable information of the processing of the data. This file is mailed to the shifter every 10 Fills in connection with the quality checking. It contains the date when THOR processed a certain fill and a list of which cassettes that were missing. If the same fill should be processed twice for some unknown reason, THOR will not find any cassettes as they have all been moved to the backup bank. THOR will then remove this entry from the list in the misscass.txt file, and it has to be corrected manually.
