RE: test federation at rcf

["Mark Pollack" <markp@bnl.gov>]

Hi Jeff,

Can you not use the FDID in the 26xxx range.  This was
reserved for PHENIX use and I already have a federation using
exactly that number.  See
http://www.rhic.bnl.gov/RCF/Software/Commercial/Objectivity/IDAllocation.htm
l
for the id allocation.

Which header files are missing?  I know that for ootoolmgr I had to add the
environment variables, but that should now be fixed at the system level.

setenv XFILESEARCHPATH /afs/rhic/oodb/solaris4/etc/app-defaults/%N
setenv XBMLANGPATH /afs/rhic/oodb/solaris4/etc/bitmaps/%N/%B

Regards,
Mark

Hi All,

I recreated the test federation (fd_8888) on the rcf.
The new FDID is 26011 (one of my test FDIDs) and
the boot file is pointed to via.

setenv OO_FD_BOOT /scr20/gc_fdb/26011/Fdbfile

To access the afs version of objectivity, you can source
/scr20/gc_fdb/objy_afs.csh

I made a log of how I built it in, /scr20/gc_fdb/README.build
Since the db-files are on a disk that is on rmds03 & not NFS
exported, I started the ams server on this machine.  Thus you
can run on rsun00 and access the dbfiles.   I copied over
41 of the 56 files from hpss & built the TagDB.  I did not yet build
the index file needed by Henrik's code (feel free to do so).

I found several small problems playing with Objy at rcf
(e.g. headerfile not found, ootoolmgr problems,... ) so it is
useful to exercise it here.

Let me know if there are any problems with the federation.

Thanks, Jeff
