The FASTCopy automation software (module ISOC.FASTCopyDB.FASTCopyDB) uses a set of database tables to perform and track incoming and outgoing FASTCopy transfers. On a fresh installation, a PostgreSQL user and database must be created, and the PostgreSQL server must be configured to allow local and network access to the database. Note that creating a PostgreSQL user does not create a system user account. The 'createuser' command will prompt for a password used to authenticate the user to the database. Choose a suitable password and record it for use in later configuration stepsExamine the file /usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ISOC/sitedep/sitedep-default.ini, and use the string specified in the 'password' entry in the 'dsn' parameter of the 'FASTCopyDB' stanza.

Once the basic schema is loaded, the name of the installation host must be added to a table in the database. Determine the fully-qualified hostname of the machine, e.g. "lat-hobbit4.slac.stanford.edu" and execute the following command:
| Code Block |
|---|
$ psql -U GLAST_ISOC -c "insert into fcopy_submithost values( (select max(submithost_pk)+1 from fcopy_submithost), 'lat-hobbit4.slac.stanford.edu');" GLAST_ISOC |
Similarly, the Unix usernames of any accounts from which outgoing files will be submitted must also be added to a table in the database. Determine the desired list of accounts, e.g. "ric jim selim" and execute the following command:
| Code Block |
|---|
$ for u in ric jim selim ; do
> psql -U GLAST_ISOC -c "insert into fcopy_submitter values( (select max(submitter_pk)+1 from fcopy_submitter), '$u');" GLAST_ISOC
> done
