This file is located in the FarmTools package. To modify it checkout the package on fcdflnx3, edit FarmTools/doc/make_release.html and commit it to CVS. See CVS tips for instructions on how to do this. It is up to the production coordinators, offline shifters, and offline operations manager to keep this up to date. No one else will do it for us. Please fix problems as they are found. Shifters should report problems to the production coordinators if they are unsure how to fix them.

Instructions for Building ProductionExe and an Offline Operations Test Release

Notes

• These are the steps which were used to build release 6.0.0int4 on fcdflnx3. For future releases, substitute the proper release number for 6.0.0int4 in what follows. For things that were copied from previous releases (6.1.0pre3), copy from the last reliable test release built. (It would probably be better if updated versions of these files were reposited into CVS somewhere by somebody).
• By default, the code management group does not build maxopt libraries when creating releases. If the maxopt libraries do not exist, the maxopt compilation will fail. Ask the code management people about this if you have problems compiling maxopt. If a maxopt version is needed, send a request to the code management group for them to build one (discuss it with Liz Sexton or Pasha Murat if you are not sure whether it is required). If it is not needed just skip the maxopt part of the build.
• Shifters should not be doing this for releases that are going to be used on the production farms. Production coordinators should build those releases.
• Be very careful about modifying code in an offline operations test release. Only the production coordinators should do this. They should follow the instructions to patch a release if the change is necessary and permanent. If running tests and modifying code for test purposes, they should consider making a separate release with a name like 6.0.0int4_username and running tests there. It would be terrible to send unintended and undocumented code modifications to the production farms.

The Procedure

(1) building ProductionExe with the default optimatiztion

  log into fcdflnx3 as cdfopr

  ticket
  cd /cdf/scratch/cdfopr/testRel
  source ~cdfsoft/cdf2.cshrc
  setup cdfsoft2 6.0.0int4
  newrel -t 6.0.0int4 6.0.0int4
  cd 6.0.0int4

  addpkg Production
  addpkg -h FarmTools
  addpkg -h cdfopr
  addpkg -h Release
  addpkg FrameMods
  addpkg TclUtils
  
  addpkg -h Stntuple     (should use the tagged version when a new tag for version 6
                           becomes available)

  gmake nobin             >&  gmake_600int4.log
  gmake Production.bin    >>& gmake_600int4.log
  gmake FrameMods.bin     >>& gmake_600int4.log
  gmake FarmTools.all     >>& gmake_600int4.log

  (For latest update, refer to http://fcdfhome.fnal.gov/usr/cdfopr/Stntuple/Stntuple.html )

  gmake Stntuple.bin                  >&  gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log
  gmake Stntuple._base   USESHLIBS=1  >>& gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log
  gmake Stntuple._data   USESHLIBS=1  >>& gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log
  gmake Stntuple._obj    USESHLIBS=1  >>& gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log
  gmake Stntuple._alg    USESHLIBS=1  >>& gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log
  gmake Stntuple._ana    USESHLIBS=1  >>& gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log
  gmake Stntuple._geom   USESHLIBS=1  >>& gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log
  gmake Stntuple._loop   USESHLIBS=1  >>& gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log
  gmake Stntuple._mod    USESHLIBS=1  >>& gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log
  gmake Stntuple._val    USESHLIBS=1  >>& gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log
  gmake Stntuple._oracle USESHLIBS=1  >>& gmake_600int4_Stntuple.log

  cp ../6.1.0pre3/.rootrc . 
  cp ../6.1.0pre3/rootlogon.C .
  cp ../6.1.0pre3/run_validation_zee_s.C .

  

(2) building ProductionExe with maxopt
  check the availability of the maxopt version of release 

  srt_setup -a SRT_QUAL=maxopt
  echo $PATH

  srt_setup -a SRT_QUAL=maxopt
  gmake nobin                  >&  gmake_600int4_maxopt.log
  gmake Production.bin         >>& gmake_600int4_maxopt.log
  gmake FrameMods.bin          >>& gmake_600int4_maxopt.log
