- Install CentOS 7 (Minimal Compute Node and Development Tools)
- Add an user named "beam"
- Disable selinux by editing /etc/selinux/config and setting SELINUX=disabled
- Disable firewall by running: systemctl disable firewalld && systemctl stop firewalld
Installation of additional packages needed to compile the EUDAQ software
EUDAQ requires gcc version 4.9 or higher. Installation of gcc 7 from devtoolset-7
yum install centos-release-scl
yum-config-manager --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-rpmsyum install devtoolset-7
Install ROOT and cmake3 from EPEL 7
yum install epel-releaseyum-config-manager --enable epelyum install rootyum install cmake3
Additional packages needed for EUDAQ
yum install libusb-devel
yum install qt5-qtbase-dev
Other useful packages (sshfs = user space ssh filesystem, emacs, etc.)
yum install sshfs emacs
The server box has two ethernet ports. One is used to connect to the restricted ESA network, the second port to connect to a private RCE network.
Configuration of the ESA NIC (edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp2s0)
TYPE=Ethernet
PROXY_METHOD=none
BROWSER_ONLY=no
BOOTPROTO=none
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6INIT=no

IPADDR=172.27.104.45
PREFIX=22
GATEWAY=172.27.104.1
Configuration of the RCE NIC (edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp3s0)
TYPE=Ethernet
PROXY_METHOD=none
BROWSER_ONLY=no
BOOTPROTO=static
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no

Install and configure a dhcp server for the RCE network
yum install dhcp
systemctl start dhcpd
systemctl enable dhcpd
Edit /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
host rce0 {
hardware ethernet 08:00:56:00:45:10 ;
fixed-address 192.168.1.10;
}
host rce1 {
hardware ethernet 08:00:56:00:45:00;
fixed-address 192.168.1.11;
}
host rce2 {
hardware ethernet 08:00:56:00:46:21;
fixed-address 192.168.1.12;
}
}
Append RCE defintions to /etc/hosts
192.168.1.10 rce0
192.168.1.11 rce1
192.168.1.12 rce2
To allow updates in the restricted network yum needs to be configured to use a SOCKS5 proxy.
(Recipe for ssh tunnel for the SOCK5 proxy need to be defined/tested for ESA)
Edit /etc/yum.conf and add the line below to the "main" section:
proxy=socks5h://localhost:1080
Compiling EUDAQ. This recipe assumes internet access and needs to be revised for the ESA restricted network
As user "beam" run
git clone -b v1.7.0 https://github.com/eudaq/eudaq.git
