Updating Oasis for the GlueX VO
The cronjob that updates Oasis is run at 1 am, 7 am, 1 pm, and 7 pm every day by the gluex account on sandd1.jlab.org. The script is
/home/gluex/bin/oasis_update.sh
The script performs an rsync from several areas on /group/halld at JLab to the central Oasis server maintained by the OSG. It uses a user account on that that server assigned to the GlueX VO which contains a public key allowing login from the gluex account on sandd1.jlab.org. The authorized_keys file on the OSG server identifies sandd1.jlab.org by IP number, not IP name.
The areas rsync'ed are:
| Description | Directory |
|---|---|
| dist directory | /group/halld/www/halldweb/html/dist/*.sqlite |
| resources directory | /group/halld/www/halldweb/html/resources/ |
| build_scripts directory | /group/halld/Software/build_scripts/ |
| container build directory | /group/halld/Software/builds/Linux_CentOS7-x86_64-gcc4.8.5-cntr/ |
| container recent build directory | /group/halld/Software/builds/Linux_CentOS7-x86_64-gcc4.8.5-cntr/recent/ |
| halld_versions directory | /group/halld/www/halldweb/html/halld_versions/ |
| CentOS 8 container build directory | /group/halld/Software/builds/Linux_CentOS8-x86_64-gcc8.3.1-cntr/ |
These areas on the group disk get rsync'ed to
/home/login/ouser.gluex/stage/group/halld
on the Oasis server. They appear under the Oasis CVMFS share as
/cvmfs/oasis.opensciencegrid.org/gluex/group/halld
Note that some of these directories have "exclude" directives in their respective rsync commands; not every file at JLab will appear on Oasis.
After all directories have been rsync'ed, the osg-oasis-update command is executed on the Oasis server, but only if files have been transferred during the runs of rsync.
