CSL Upgrade notes  


<!-- Date: Mon Apr 12 21:14:07 2004 -->
I attach power cables and KVM cables to all 6 CSL PCs. 
Boot each one. The 4 new PCs have two RAID controllers, with 
1 GB usable space each (RAID 10). This is first time the 
new PCs have been booted at FNAL. 
 
The two old PCs both have 
a file system check forced since it has been several months since 
they were checked. I notice one old PC has three disks not in use 
causing both RAID units to be in a degraded state. 
Will need to fix that.

Parallel logger tests using beam. 
 
The <a href='/cgi/elog/elog.pl?nb=2004&action=view&page=615&anchor=10:42:53.525'>first</a> test was rather unsuccessful. 
The <a href=l?nb=2004&action=view&page=616&anchor=17:10:11.546'>second</a> test showed everything I wanted to see and more...

<pre>Upgraded IRIX on b0dau31 from 6.5.18f (CXFS 2.3?) to 6.5.24 with CXFS 3.2 (yesterday). It seems OK, but it is unknown CXFS works properly (because we don't use CXFS for mounting disks on b0dau31). Confirmed that CSL can be built and run on new IRIX. 
 
Below is the details of the upgrade: 
 
- Necessary files are put in b0dau32:/home/system/irix6.5.24. 
  Also, IRIX 6.5 foundation CD-ROMs must be prepared. 
 
- Before the upgrade, apply patch 5086 for fixing "inst" command. 
 
# touch /etc/nologin 
# cd /home/system/irix6.5.24 
# inst 
Inst> from ./cd1 
    >      ./cd2 
    >      ./cd3 
    >      done 
Inst> keep * 
Inst> install standard 
Inst> conflicts 
Inst> conflicts 1b (Also install eoe.sw.base ...) 
Inst> conflicts 1b (Also install base product eoe.sw.base ...) 
      (Foundation-1 CD-ROM required) 
Inst> conflicts 
Inst> conflicts 1b (Also install java2_eoe.sw.base ...) 
      (Read from ./apps ?) 
Inst> conflicts 
Inst> conflicts 1a (Do not install sgi_apache.sw.mod_ssl ...) 
Inst> conflicts 1a (Do not install java2_plugin.sw32.mozilla_freeware ...) 
Inst> conflicts 1a (Do not install sgimeeting.sw.sgimeeting ...) 
Inst> conflicts 1a (Do not install sgimeeting.sw.sgitool ...) 
Inst> conflicts 1b (Remove irix_dev.sw.headers ...) 
Inst> conflicts 1b (Remove java_dev.sw.base ...) 
Inst> conflicts 1b (Remove java_dev.sw32.binaries ...) 
Inst> conflicts 1a (Also install irix_dev.sw.headers ...) 
Inst> conflicts 1b (Also install base product irix_dev.sw.headers ...) 
      (Development libraries CD-ROM required) 
Inst> conflicts 
      (No conflicts) 
Inst> list i 
Inst> go 
      ... 
Inst> quit 
 
- Apply important CXFS patch 
 
# cd patch5707 
# inst 
Inst> from . 
Inst> install patchSG0005707 
Inst> conflicts 
Inst> conflicts 1a 2a 3a 4a (Do not install ...) 
Inst> go 
Inst> quit 
# versions changed 
  ... 
  etc/aliases 
  etc/inetd.conf 
  etc/init.d/network.O 
  etc/nsswitch.conf 
  etc/passwd 
  etc/passwd.O 
  etc/sendmail.mc 
  etc/services 
  var/netscape/communicator/mime.types.O 
  var/spool/cron/crontabs/root 
  var/sysgen/master.d/if_eg.O 
  ... 
# 
 
- Need to merge local customizations into the updates for the above configuration files. Especially, "network" and "services" should be modified properly. 
 
- The following entries should be added to /etc/services as well, as asked from inst when exiting 
 
sgi-cmsd        7000/udp                        # FailSafe Membership Daemon 
sgi-gcd         8000/udp                        # Group Communication Daemon 
 
- Should stop unnecessary daemons: 
 
# chkconfig lp off 
# chkconfig nss_fasttrack off 
# chkconfig tfxd off 
# chkconfig sgi_apache off 
# chkconfig webface_apache off 
 
- IRIX tcsh is too old for cdfsoft and CSL so should be replaced 
 
# cd /usr/bin 
# cp -p tcsh tcsh.6.5.24.orig 
# ln -fs /usr/local/bin/tcsh . 
 
- We may want to replace /usr/include/wchar.h to compile codes in cdfsoft, but this is no longer needed ? 
 
# shutdown -g0 -y 
 
( Probably one more reboot is needed. Also check /unix and running processes )

<pre>Remember to remove /etc/nologin.

For the CXFS 3.2, new command (actually perl script) /usr/cluster/bin/cxfs-config has been introduced, and it may be used in some cases...

<pre>IIRC, a copy of "IRIX 6.5 foundation CD-ROMs" is
available online at b0dau32:/home/system/6.5base/ .</pre>
<!-- Date: Mon Dec 27 22:25:53 2004 -->
<pre>I prepared to replace current code to new plogger code produced by Mako. 
We can change to it by following procedure for a next convenient time. 
 
1. become user csl on b0dau32 to replace to new software. 
mv build_csl build_csl_2004_12xx 
mv build_csl_2004_1227_makos_plogger build_csl 
 
2. become user ace on b0dau32 
cslcom stop 
cslcom cleanup 
source /logger/control/ace/software/copy_official 
cslcom start 
  
</pre>
