Migration from SL4 to SL5 at CC-Lyon J ü rgen Brunner
2
Situation early 2009 OS: Scientific Linux 4 All batch machines: 64bit with 32bit libraries installed (qsub –l platform=LINUX) Interactive machine –64bit : ccali.in2p3.fr –32bit : ccalisl432.in2p3.fr 32bit interactive machines heavily used by Antares to prepare 32bit binaries which are able to run without problems on the 64bit batch machines
3
Status November 2009 LHC decides to use Scientific Linux 5 64bit By now 80% of batch machines have been migrated Last SL4 machines will disappear in June 2010 No interactive SL5 32bit machines available Special request from Antares for 32-bit interactive machines has been refused 32 bit libraries only on special request, installation with important delay –Root, Naglib do not (yet) exist in 32bit (ok on 64bit)

Antares migration steps Lyon login script modified to initialize correctly various packages on SL5 –Root, Java, PATH, CLASSPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH New $AN_BIN and $AN_LIB installed First packages installed (io, geasim, km3) gen/hit tested, produced scattering tables seem ok SeaTray: fully 64b compatible Mupage: ok on 64b as well Other packages: Compile, need further tests More details see –http://antares.in2p3.fr/internal/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=32bit_to_64bit_migration Alternative (disfavoured): Modify Makefiles to force 32bit binaries on 64bits systems
7
Antares migration Need to install all standard Antares software on SL5 64b Proposal : just install everything (“beta version”) –Make it compiles and does not crash immediately –All are invited for testing Need for limited time reinforced code testing team Could also help to discover other bugs – not necessarily related to 32/64bit migration Task force ? Service task list ?
8
SRB upgrade Nothing to do with SL4 SL5 Nevertheless important for Antares Mains SRB server of Antares changed Old: ccsrb03.in2p3.fr New ccsrb01.in2p3.fr Change setting in ~/.srb/.MdasEnv on ALL accounts from where you use SRB Failure of doing so will block your SRB access
9
SRB – HPSS – XRootd synchronization Standard procedure –Add new file into SRB –Add new directory branch into SRB – HPSS automatically updated few days later After bug fixes etc: –Rename directory structure –Replace files with new version keeping name –Not synchronized !! –Need to be done individually on SRB & HPSS –Need also to clean XRootd buffer eventually
