How to Fix - Pipeline II

Owned by: Tony Johnson and Dan Flath

Pipeline-II servers (PROD and DEV) are now running under account glast on glastlnx12, and glastlnx07 respectively, and cron jobs are set up to start the servers after a reboot or crash at:

~glast/pipeline-II/prod

~glast/pipeline-II/dev

How to Fix:

Test and Fix

1. Restarting an Unresponsive Server

The Pipeline-II production server (PROD) is now running under account glast on glastlnx12, and a cron job is set up
to start the server after a reboot or crash at: ~glast/pipeline-II/prod

To Test: Check if the server is running by entering from the command line: ping glastlnx12.slac.stanford.edu

Note: If jobs are not starting as expected (see Pipeline II monitor), the server may need restarting even though it
responds to pings and other requests. (If you wish to perform additional tests, refer to the Pipeline II User's Guide.)
To Fix: The prod server runs on glastlnx12. Do not attempt to start it elsewhere.

Only one version of the PROD pipeline can be run at a time; if a version is already running, you need to stop it
before you can restart it.

Stopping the server. If the server stops working correctly, try shutting it down as follows:

cd ~glast/pipeline-II/prod
./pipeline shutdown

If the prod server doesn't respond to a shutdown command, it can be terminated by doing:

cd ~glast/pipeline-II/prod
./stop

To start the prod server:

cd ~glast/pipeline-II/prod
./start
