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?

...

• 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.

epics-checkout -m common/XXX

• eDrive, ok. set EPICS_BASE_VER R7.0.3.1-2.0
• gentec,
  • (corrected gentek to gentec and errors persisted)
  • failed, unable to determine repository path for common/gentec
  • common/gentec/R1.1.1 (2 Apr 2021) still contains .svn
  • see: eco_tools examples for putting EPICS IOCs into git
  • svnModuleToGit -m common/gentec
    
    • this takes several minutes:
    • Image Removed
  • Consider just doing a cut and paste and then a manual init into git.
