Subject: The filesystem paths used by alimdc (rawdata,tag and run DBs) are now controlled... 
X-Git-Url: http://git.uio.no/git/?p=u%2Fmrichter%2FAliRoot.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=f732bd7dc184d6c84b1e87099bae45367504a8a7

The filesystem paths used by alimdc (rawdata,tag and run DBs) are now controlled by environment variables (ALIMDC_RAWDB1, ALIMDC_RAWDB2, ALIMDC_TAGDB, ALIMDC_RUNDB). If these variables are not set, alimdc will use the default ones in the tmp folder. This is important change for the DC.
