ATF/ATF2 Computing environment

• VPN + ssh://atf-xserve2.kek.jp
• BPM machine (cbpm-lxs, 20.10.67.169)

lxs servers

• SL5.3 (Boron)
• lxs machines (nfs mounts to atf-vserve2.kek.jp /atf -> /Volumes/vtrack1/ATF/)
• Local package installation via /atf/servers
• Packages installed via rpm and into /usr/local/

Fragments of .profile file for setting up an environment on one of the linux machines

EPICS

export EPICS=/usr/local/epics/
export EPICS_BASE=${EPICS}/base/
export EPICS_HOST_ARCH=linux-x86
export PATH=${PATH}:/usr/local/bin/:/${EPICS_BASE}/bin/${EPICS_HOST_ARCH}

ROOT

export ROOTSYS=/usr/local/root/
export PATH=${PATH}:${ROOTSYS}/bin

ENGLISH
To set the console messages to English (this is key for working with the linux machines (as the locale is typically set to (ja_JP.UTF-8)

export LANG=en_US.utf8

BPM software

• Need to change .profile on xserve

# SVN config 
export SVN_EDITOR='emacs -nw'
export SVN_SSH='ssh sboogert@localhost -p 20001'
alias svn_tunnel='/usr/bin/ssh -L 20001:svn.pp.rhul.ac.uk:22 -l sboogert linappserv1.pp.rhul.ac.uk'

• Make directory in correct location

cd /Volumes/vtrak1/ATF/control/epics/atf2/
mkdir cbpm
cd cbpm

then check out code from Royal Holloway

svn co svn+ssh:///data/svn/JAI/BeamPositionMonitor/atf2/trunk/bpm-ioc ./

If you don't have an account at RHUL then http download can be performed but it will be impossible to commit these changes to SVN (email stewart.boogert@rhul.ac.uk, for SVN htaccess password)

svn co svn+http://svn.pp.rhul.ac.uk/JAI/BeamPositionMonitor/atf2/trunk/bpm-ioc ./

• Log into linux controller and build sub components

ssh linuxmachine -l username
cd /atf/control/epics/atf2/cbpm/
make
