Help: ICE_FLAGS_LEAPSECDOY=N
This tells the ICE libraries that there will be a mid-year leap second on DayOfYear=n
This tells the ICE libraries that there will be a mid-year leap second on DayOfYear=n. Since all
UTC based timecode including the ICE packets will repeat a second and SDDS counters will not, a
correction needs to be applied for the remainder of the year to all SDDS streams. This can be
applied globally to all configurations by adding it to the file $ICEROOT/cfg/global_flags.cfg .
Note: While this method does not rely on the system clock for determining the year to apply this
adjustment, or a reset at the leap second insertion, or at the roll over to the next year, it does
require this file to be removed or modified before this day of the next year.
Note: DayOfYear is zero based as returned from the timex routine in Midas. So July-1-2012 DoY=182.
Note: LEAPSECDOY <= 0 will be ignored.
