The LHC experiments will be operated as Finite State Machines (FSM). The FSM transitions will require the re-configuration of parts of the Experiments' Control Systems. All configuration parameters of the devices integrating the control systems are stored in an external database called Configuration DB. These data can be accessed using the Configuration Database Tool.
The main task of the FSM -Configuration DB Interface is to ensure the availability of the configuration data in PVSS, used during the FSM transitions, for a given type of run mode, e.g. PHYSICS, COSMICS, CALIBRATION, etc. This is achieved by syncrhonizing the contents of the Configuration DB and of the PVSS internal caches used by the FSM at the beginning of the run.
