EMF LTDB configuration at EMF

You need a specific flavor of firmware on the pc-emf-felix-fe-01's felix : the LTDB one

Take the latest release on the felix website : https://atlas-project-felix.web.cern.ch/atlas-project-felix/user/releases.html

To change it :

OBSOLETE

ssh -X pcemf-felix-01
source /data/FELIX/setup.sh
cd /data/ScriptInitFelix
./disable-minipod.sh    #If forgotten you may have to repower the FE crate
sudo /usr/local/bin/flxpci remove # DON'T FORGET THIS STEP, IF SO YOU MUST REBOOT THE COMPUTER
fflash -f 3 -L -b 1
rm fflash-tmp.txt # this file is created when you do fflash but if someone else did it before, he is the owner of this file and you can't do fflsh. So please clean it (remove) after fflash command
sudo shutdown -r now    ( # there is a bug in flxpci since we are in CC7 don't execute sudo /usr/local/bin/flxpci rescan)
./enable-minipod.sh

NEW METHODE

ssh -X pc-emf-felix-fe-01

cd /det/lar/project/LTDB

source setup.sh

cd directory_of_your_felix_firmware

fflashprog -c 0 -f 3 LEFIRMW.mcs prog

fflashprog -c 0 -f 0 LEFIRMW.mcs prog

sudo shutdown now -r

to verify use :

cat /proc/flx

ssh -X pc-emf-felix-fe-01
cd /det/lar/project/LTDB/
cd Felix/
./configurationFelixScript_productionServer.sh
./start.sh

To check if felixcore is launched:

ssh -X pc-emf-felix-fe-01
cd /det/lar/project/LTDB/tools/misc
./status.sh #you need to edit your bashrc to have this command

To stop this server:

ssh -X pc-emf-felix-fe-01
status
#note the felixcore's PID
kill -9 PID

To test if all is good you can do a ping of all sca with this scan: The result have to be exactly the sames.

ssh -X pc-emf-felix-fe-01
cd /det/lar/project/LTDB/tools/scanSca
source setup.sh
./scan.sh -l 1

ssh -X pc-emf-felix-fe-01 
gtbin
cd OpcUaScaServer/
./start.sh

To restart the server :

ssh -X pc-emf-felix-fe-01 
status
#note the ScaServer's PID
kill -9 PID

To see the logs the server :

ssh -X pc-emf-felix-fe-01
status
#note the last_log_file
tail -f last_log_file

ssh -X pc-emf-felix-fe-01
gtbin
cd OpcUaLarLtdbServer/
./start.sh

To see the logs

ssh -X pc-emf-felix-fe-01
status
#note the last_log_file
tail -f last_log_file

The lasts log lines have to be:

kill -9 PID

In the case of the pc-emf-felix-fe-01 is powercycled, one need to reopen the port with :

sudo iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 48030 -j ACCEPT
