Setup of a EMI workarea

This document describes the procedure required for setting up a workarea for the current release of the JobManagement products

Basic requirements are:

1. The machine MUST BE installed from scratch; don't try to update a gLite build machine.
2. Any configuration of VCS or ETICS access is up to the user.

Setup

1. Remove the DAG repository, protect any repository of SL5, check if the log4j package from ETICS is not installed, then:

   
      yum clean all
      yum install yum-protectbase.noarch
   
   

2. Install the EPEL extension:

   
      rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm
   
   

3. Install the dummy packages (just for developers), the file /etc/yum.repos.d/emi-rpms.repo must contain:

   
   [EMI]
   name=EMI
   baseurl=http://devel12.cnaf.infn.it:7444/repository/emi-build-ext
   enabled=1
   
   

4. run:

   
      yum install emi-build-environment
   
   

5. Install the ETICS suite:

   
      cd /opt && wget "http://eticssoft.web.cern.ch/eticssoft/repository/etics-client-setup.py" -O etics-client-setup && \
      python etics-client-setup
   
   

Build

The procedure for building a JobManagement subsystem is the following:

etics-workspace-setup
etics-get-project emi
etics-checkout --noask --platform sl5_x86_64_gcc412EPEL --continueonerror --project-config <current_project_config> -c <configuration_name> <module-name>
etics-build --platform sl5_x86_64_gcc412EPEL --continueonerror <module-name>

These are the parameters for each subsystem:

module-name	configuration_name
emi.cream-ce	emi-cream-ce_B_1_13
emi.cream-ui	emi-cream-ui_B_1_13
emi.wms	emi-wms_B_3_3
emi.wms.ice	emi-ice_B_3_3
emi.wms-ui	emi-wms-ui_B_3_3

New CE configurations (29/04/2001):

module-name	configuration-name
emi.cream-ce	emi-cream-ce_B_1_14
emi.cream-ui	emi-cream-ui_B_1_14

The value of the current_project_configuration is communicated by the release manager (currently, 29/04/2011, it is emi_B_1_rc4 ).
