I rebuilt one of our old desktop machines to serve as NFS server for the cymac. It is running Debian 10.0 and assigned IP 10.0.1.169 (hostname qil-nfs). I installed a new 2 TB hard drive dedicated to hosting the LIGO RTS software and frame builder archive, which is shared with all other lab machines via NFS.
I have moved the new machine into the server rack and copied the contents of /opt/rtcds on the cymac into the shared location. Functionality like sitemap and the CDS tools can now be run directly from the QIL workstation (plus any other machine on which we add the NFS mount). |
