ioc-mec-lpl01 replacement

The existing ioc-mec-lpl01 is a RHEL5 host and needs to be replaced with a RHEL7 Ciara.

Here are the IOCs:

Survey:

Out of the above list, the following three IOCs are in an "Off" state:

• ioc-mec-las-gentec5, this is also using /reg/g/pcds/epics-dec/nrw/gentec-child
• ioc-mec-lpl-lps-{03,04}

Also, ioc-mec-gentec is already running on ioc-mec-imb02, and is not part of this migration.

Are there RHEL7 builds for the parent modules?

epics/3.14/ioc/common/eDrive:

• no, builds for linux-x86, linux-x86_64, RTEMS-beatnik

ioc/common/gentec:

• no, linux-x86-64 builds only

epics/3.14/ioc/common/polyScienceChiller:

• no, builds for linux-x86, linux-x86_64, RTEMS-beatnik

epics/3.14/ioc/common/tdkGen

• no, builds for linux-x86, linux-x86_64, RTEMS-beatnik

Temporary reassignment to other rhel5 hosts

IOC reassignment plan:

• ioc-mec-lpl-lco-{01-06} -> ioc-mec-cam04
• ioc-mec-las-gentec{1-7} -> ioc-mec-gige01
• ioc-mec-lpl-chl-{01-04} -> ioc-mec-lasmot1
• ioc-mec-lpl-lps-{02-04} -> ioc-mec-imb02

Executing the reassignments is a one-step process:

• imgr IOCNAME --move HOST - this includes the IOC restart on the new host.
