Install a Release as daqowner

1. Log in as daqowner:

      ssh daqowner@cms2.bu.edu
      

2. Get the installation script from the cmshcalweb database:

      wget http://cmshcalweb01.cern.ch/hcalsw/release/installDAQ_11_7_7.perl
      

3. Run the installation script:

      perl installDAQ_11_7_7.perl --mode=teststand
      

4. Once the installation script has finished, pick the correct release:

   ~daqowner/common/bin/pickRelease.sh
   Available installed releases

      22 )   11.7.7
   Pick release to use:   22
      

1. Set the environment for this release:

   ~daqowner/dist/etc/env/env.sh
      

   or, if you are using the tc-shell:

   ~daqowner/dist/etc/env/env.csh
      

Install a release in your own source tree

1. First, ensure that the release you want to work with is the current one, as such:

      ls -l /home/daqowner/dist
      lrwxrwxrwx 1 daqowner daq 25 Jan  5 09:56 /home/daqowner/dist -> /home/daqowner/daq.11.7.7
      

   If the release is not the one you want, use pickRelease.sh (instructions shown above) or install the desired release.
2. Copy the installation script to your login directory:

      cp ~daqowner/installDAQ_11_7_7.perl ${HOME}/
      

3. If you want to check the xDAQ code out of CVS anonymously (ie if you do not have an afs ID or don't care to have access to the repository), edit the script, search for "anonymous", and remove the # comment mark. Otherwise, if you have an afs ID and want access to the repository, skip this step.
4. Run the installation script, ownsourcing the code to your ${HOME}/src directory:

      perl ~/installDAQ_11_7_7.perl --mode-teststand --ownsource=${HOME}/src/11_7_7 --packages=hcalUpgrade cvsuser=[afsID]
      

   NOTE that you can put the code into any directory you like; it doesn't have to be ${HOME}/src/11_7_7. NOTE that you can also install additional packages, if you wish; you're not limited to the hcalUpgrade. However, ALL of the AMC13 code lies within the hcalUpgrade package!! If packages is not specified, then all packages are installed by default. NOTE that if you removed the "anonymous" comment mark in the previous step, you do not need the cvsuser argument.
5. Set the environment for your new ownsource code development area:

      source /home/daqowner/dist/etc/env.sh
      export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${HOME}/src/11_7_7/hcal/hcalUpgrade/amc13/lib/linux/x86_64_slc5/:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} 
      

6. If you provided your "cvsuser" afs ID (and therefore have access to the repository), update the software to the latest code in CVS (in case changes have been checked in by other parties since this release):

      cd ~/src/11_7_7/hcal/hcalUpgrade/
      cvs update
      

7. Build the code in exactly the following order:

      cd ~/src/11_7_7/hcal/hcalUpgrade/ipbus/

1. After the code is done building, you have finished! You are now ready to run the AMC13Tool executable!
