---++ Experiment Software Experiment software is typically installed by a privilaged user via a grid job. The user will have write access to the appropriate part of the software installation area, allowing them to add to and amend software at their convenience. %TOC% ---++ epgce3 Experiment software is installed in the =/egee/soft/= directory. The original directory resides on a 177 GB disk local to =epgce3=. This is no longer large enough, so software is in the process of being moved to a 4.6 TB disk ( =/disk/f15d/= ) on =epgsr1=. ---+++ Moving software to epgsr1 It is a simple task to copy the software available to the =epgce3= WNs to =epgsr1=: 1 Mount =epgce3:/egee/soft= somewhere convenient on =epgsr1= (for example =/tmp/soft=) 1 Copy the software from =epgsr1:/tmp/soft= to =epgsr1:/egee/soft= 1 Unmount =epgce3:/egee/soft= from WNs and mount =epgsr1:/egee/soft= instead 1 Clean up ---+++++ Mount epgce3 on epgsr1 Start by making sure that =epgsr1= has permission to mount =epgce3:/egee/soft= by editing the files =epgce3:/etc/exports= and =epgce3:/etc/hosts.allow=. In order for the export rules to be updated the command =exportfs -r= must be issued. =epgce3:/egee/soft= will now be available for mounting on =epgsr1= with the following command: <verbatim> mount epgce3:/egee/soft /tmp/soft </verbatim> It's availability can be confirmed with a simple =df -h= ---+++++ Copy software Very simple, use =cp -a= to copy the appropriate directories from one disk to another. Note that =scp= should not be used because this does not preserve soft links! ---+++++ Mount new filesystem on WNs ---++ epgce4 Complete mystery... for now! -- Main.ChristopherCurtis - 09 Jul 2009
