How-To: Farm Setup
This is a quick description of how to setup a farm from scratch.
Machines
- Server, with large (200GB) disk.
- Objectivity machines...

Directory Structure
The default directory structure on the server machine is listed
below in the format for SLAC or Padova, but it is configurable
per farm (OprProcessingSys/OprConfXX#.xml).
- /u1/XX#/prod or /nfs/opr#/Reprocessing/ER#/prod
(the production area, release and packages)
- /u1/XX#/logfiles or
/nfs/opr#/Reprocessing/ER#/logfiles (the run logfiles)
- /u1/XX#/xtcfiles or /xtc (the xtc files)
- /u1/TAO or $TAO_NS_ROOT (the nameserver)
where XX# is the farm name, XX = PC or ER.
Packages
The following packages are currently needed to run the
control system:
- OprProcessingSys (gmake OprProcessingSys.bin)
- OprControlSys (gmake OprControlSys.bin)
- OprQaUtils (gmake OprQaUtils.bin)
