Upload the files.

Start a browser

Start a browser on lcls-prod02, such as by hitting the browser icon on a control room OPI. The reason it's important to run the browser on lcls-prod02, is that the browser has to be able to access a URL in the SLAC internet space, and simultaneously access the filesystem directory where the models have been put. Don't complain to me about this complexity, talk to the Controls Department Systems Group. It should of course be that any browser should be able to access LCLS model data output.

So, either, on lcls-prod02:

kinit (to get a token, which is necessary to start firefox)
firefox &

or, go to a control room OPI and use the Image Removed icon in the taskbar at the bottom o the screen to launch firefox. This will launch the special firefox on lcls-prod02, from where you can upload the model xml files in the nxt step.

"Select Device File".

"Select Elements File".

In the filebrowser, browse to /mccfs2/u1/lcls/physics/onlinemodel/xal and select the file "modelOutput.xml".

Select a Hardware File and a Initial Conditions File

Pull-down and select a Hardware file, like "hw_file1", and pull-down the Initial Conditions and select "ic_file1". At the time of writing these are placeholders, any of the values in the pull-downs may be used, but you must select a value before the Submit button will work.

Start the upload to Oracle

Hit "Submit".

Update the AIDA Directory service
