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.
