Initial Skare implementation / deployment notes
==================================================

To Do
------

- Need to update skare config to use 0.10. (Have done this manually for 
  /proj/sot/ska/{,dev}/lib/perl.
- Make a task_schedule launcher for doing test and development.

- Break template into installable packages as much as possible
- IDL startup and batch startup into template (or as a package)
- $SKA/include/Task_template etc
- Write HowTo for binary exec installation
- Find a way to run skare on rhodes:
   - Force perl to be /usr/local/bin/perl on rhodes --or--
   - Make flt_envs run on 5.005 ??



Transition plan
---------------
::

  X Install skare for Solaris 8, 10 and FC8 (i686 and x86_64) in /proj/sot/ska/dev
    - Skip python installation on Solaris
    - Include DBD::Sybase
  X Install starcheck and test on Solaris 10 and x86_64
    - Solaris 10 - test on zip and kracko
  X Check devel procedure for arc on x86_64. 

  ** Actual install 2008-Dec-12 Friday evening
  X Shut down cron jobs
    - arc
    - dsn_summary

  X Do everything as user aca

  X From /proj/sot/ska
    mkdir classic
    mv bin lib include classic/

  - Set prompt

  X From /pool14/aca/skare
    set prompt="aca-$prompt"
    setenv SKA /proj/sot/ska
    ./configure --prefix=/proj/sot/ska

    # Solaris 8 and Solaris 10
    make except_python >&! log.$HOST &    

    # i686 and x86_64
    make all >&! log.$HOST &    

  X Install and test starcheck Dec-2008-B release
    cd /pool14/aca
    svn checkout file:///proj/sot/ska/svn/starcheck/tags/Release-2008-Dec-B
    cd Release-2008-Dec-B
    ./configure --prefix=/proj/sot/ska
    make install
    env SKA=/proj/sot/ska PERL5LIB='' SYBASE='' \
      /proj/sot/ska/bin/starcheck.pl -dir AUG0104A -fid_char fid_CHARACTERIS_JUL01 -out test
    
  X Copy select bin files from classic using copy_bin
  X Install latest arc
  X Install latest dsn_summary
  X Restart arc and dsn_summary
    
  X Change my occweb access permission back
  X Copy scat* bin files from classic/bin/sun4
  X Move all old arch prefixes into classic

Fallback
--------
::

  cd /proj/sot/ska
  mkdir skare
  mv bin lib include arch skare/
  mv classic/* ./

  cd /pool14/aldcroft/Release..
  env SKA=/proj/sot/ska PERL5LIB='' SYBASE='' SYBASE_OCS='' \
    /proj/sot/ska/bin/starcheck.pl -dir AUG0104A -fid_char fid_CHARACTERIS_JUL01 -out test

Install notes
--------------
- Should update test on Ska::Web to not require occweb access
- Schedule::Cron failed one test (dubious) on baffin i686 FC8 first
  time when piping to log file.  Passed next time on interactive run.
- CFITSIO::Simple was at version 0.09 instead of 0.10.  This messed
  up telem_archive processing. 


Summary of changes for mpweekly
--------------------------------
Starcheck 2008-Dec-B

* Changes to accomodate new SKA runtime environment:
   - A few very minor changes in actual code.
   - Mostly updates to Makefile and regression test script logic. 

**SKA runtime environment update 2008-Dec**

* Significant update to aspect operations tool infrastructure: 
  libraries, perl modules, and environment definition scripts.
* Complete runtime environment of starcheck is now configured.
* Perl and python scripts now use the native (/usr/bin) interpreter
  instead of /proj/axaf.
* Key driver: /proj/axaf perl no longer being maintained on Solaris.
* Runtime environment can be installed in arbitrary root directory.
* Development is done in a sandbox runtime environment.
* Now using SYBASE version 15 libraries instead of version 12.
* Aspect ops development guidelines were overhauled.
* Full regression test of starcheck. No change required in MP load 
  review script.
