Supported platforms:
linux-fermi-7.3
linux-redhat-7.3
DPE Client contents: DPE Master contents:
Installation instructions:

DPE Client suite

DPE-client suite must be installed on the head node in all MOP Worker sites.
The installation should be visible to all worker nodes in the cluster.
  1. Install (or setup if already installed) Pacman
  2. mkdir <local_dpe_top> ; cd <local_dpe_top>
  3. pacman -get http://computing.fnal.gov/cms/software/DPE-download:DPE-client

Pitfalls:

DPE Master suite

DPE-master suite is installed only on the MOP Master site (currently Fermilab).
  1. Install the client suite as mentioned above.
  2. setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anonymous@cdcvs.fnal.gov:/cvs/cd_read_only
  3. cvs login
    (Logging in to anonymous@cdcvs.fnal.gov)
    CVS password: anoncvs
  4. cvs checkout IGT-tests
  5. cd IGT-tests
  6. ./testIMPLiteMOPDagGen.sh DPE1_5 postVDT_1_1_8_DPE_1_5 `pwd`/default-config/impLite-MOPDAG 1
    This will setup MOP/MCRunjob/IMPLite in IGT-tests directory and produce setup.sh/csh file.

Known problems:
  1. Default perl setup in system configuration at FNAL causes problems in the VDT installation.
  2. As reported mkgridmap_conf package in VO component of DPE-client fails to install because of missing /opt/edg/etc/mkgridmap.conf file.
    Fixed and tagged DPE_1_5_0
    To get the update do:
    
               pacman -updateall
               pacman -get  DPE-client
    
    
  3. DPE-master installation instructions do not work outside Fermilab.
