Starting up the Dalek with its four children (from scratch)

In progress, 17 Feb 2006

LAT node

hostname

VSC

lat-elf9

SIU

lat-elf10

EPU0

lat-elf12

EPU1

lat-elf11

 
 

  • Re-power the Dalek and Gasu
  • Log onto one of lat-fangorn, lat-hobbit1, or lat-hobbit2, start cmx, and start four xterms. These will be referred to below as VSC, SIU, EPU0, EPU1.
  • xyplex to the VSC, SIU, EUP0, and EPU1 in the xterms. Type Ctrl-X in each to reboot. e.g. 
    $ cmx start
$ xyplex lat-elf9
     
  • Exit from the xyplex to the VSC with Ctrl-] (Esc) and then 'exit' (from telnet)
  • At VSC xterm: Boot the VSC and load libraries with: 
    $ fmx xyplex /nfs/slac/g/glast/online/VSC/VSC_load_cmx.fmx --target=lat-elf9 --tag=mv2304
  • At SIU xyplex: Load SIU libraries: 
    -> < /afs/slac.stanford.edu/g/glast/online/VxWorks/dalek/init_siu.vx
  • From the workstation where the proxies and scriptEngine runs, check for and remove all LICOS related python processes.
  • Turn on main feed, power on first EPU: Log onto lat-hobbit5 (test machine for LICOS), source a setup script for LICOS ('source /path/to/LICOS_ETC/setupSE.csh' or be user glast), and start a python prompt (hereafter referred to as Python prompt). At the prompt input: 
    from LICOS.scriptEngine.ScriptEngineConnector import ScriptEngineConnector
p = ScriptEngineConnector('lat-elf9',None,None)
p.start()
p.mainFeedOn(siuId=0, pduId=-1)
p.powerOnEpuOnly(epuId=0)
     
  • At EPU0 xyplex: Boot Epu0 
    -> < /afs/slac.stanford.edu/g/glast/online/VxWorks/dalek/init_epu.vx
     
  • At the python prompt: Power on second EPU 
    p.powerOnEpuOnly(epuId=1)
     
  • At EPU1 xyplex: Boot Epu1 
    -> < /afs/slac.stanford.edu/g/glast/online/VxWorks/dalek/init_epu.vx
     
  • At the python prompt: Enable SSR and power on dalek font ends. 
    import VSC
p.ssr(VSC.VscProxy.Enable)
p.powerOnTemOnly(temId=0, pduId=0)
p.powerOnCalOnly(temId=0)
p.powerOnTkrOnly(temId=0)
p.setBiasVoltageCal(temId=0, biasVoltage=0x5800)
p.setBiasVoltageTkr(temId=0, biasVoltage=0x4000)
p.powerOnAemOnly(pduId=0, supRed=0)
p.powerOnFreeBoardOnly(freeId=10)
p.powerOnFreeBoardOnly(freeId=11)
     
  • At SIU xyplex: Enable periodic triggering: 
    -> LATC_enable_period_free
     
  • Start diagnostic, science and LHK telemetry proxies: Log onto lat-hobbit5 (test machine for LICOS), source a setup script for LICOS (or be user glast), and type (hereafter referred to as test machine prompt):  
    $ONLINE_ROOT/LICOS_ETC/runProxies.csh lat-elf9 ~/Work/vsc_lh5.cfg
    Replace vsc cfg file with custom version if desired.  
  • At test machine prompt: Start scriptEngine: 
    $ONLINE_ROOT/LICOS_ETC/scriptEngine.csh --config ~/Work/scriptEngine.cfg --vscConfig ~/Work/vsc_lh5.cfg --server lat-elf9
     
  • Start LsfWriter and Analysis Engine: Log onto lat-hobbit5 (test machine for LICOS), source a setup script for LICOS (or be user glast), and type (hereafter referred to as analysis machine prompt):  
    $ONLINE_ROOT/LICOS_ETC/lsfWriter.csh ~/Work/vsc_lh5.cfg
$ONLINE_ROOT/LICOS_ETC/analysisEngine.csh --vscConfig ~/Work/vsc_lh5.cfg --aeConfig ~/Work/ae_mcr.cfg --seConfig ~/Work/scriptEngine.cfg
