Network configuration (TRIUMF)

DEAP DAQ machines are on the private network (see below).

Gateway to TRIUMF network is 1U machine deap06.triumf.ca connected to the LADD-NIS cluster (deap account on ladd00).

Gateway services running on the gateway:

  • DHCP server for the 192.168.1.x network (/etc/hosts, /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf)
  • apache SSL/https proxy for MIDAS status page, ELOG, ganglia and nodeinfo (/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf, /etc/httpd/htpasswd)
  • NAT proxy from private network to the TRIUMF network (/etc/rc.local). Makes the internet accessible from deapNN machines.

Network configuration (DEAP)

The DEAP DAQ cluster is configured for standalone running with or without an internet connection.

(NB: Some internet functions are required: access to NTP for time synchronization and access to Linux package repositories to install packages, etc)

Network numbers in use: (deap06/deap00 DHCP) 

192.168.1.x (netmask 255.255.255.0): main private network
192.168.2.x: deap00a-deap01a connection
192.168.3.x: deap00b-deap02b connection
192.168.4.x: deap00c-deap03c connection
192.168.5.x: deap00d-deap04d connection

DEAP network nodes with statically configured IP addresses: 

deapmod : Wiener MPOD firmware does not support DHCP

Usernames, passwords and hostnames are distributed using NIS:

  • domain name: DEAP-NIS
  • deap00 is the master server
  • there are no secondary servers
  • hostnames are distributed using NIS (from deap00:/etc/hosts, MUST MATCH deap06:/etc/hosts!)
  • to solve chicken-and-egg problem deap00 IP address has to be listed in each machine /etc/hosts (MUST MATCH deap06 and deap00 /etc/hosts!) (SL6.2+ NIS broadcast does not work so deap00 has to be listed in each machine /etc/yp.conf, also NFS filesystems are mounted before NIS is started).
  • also NIS has to be listed in front of DNS in the "hosts:" entry of /etc/nsswitch.conf

DNS kludge:

  • normally DNS would be used to distribute IP addresses and hostnames to the DHCP server, to deap00 and to other deap machines. But we do not have a private DNS server and the TRIUMF DNS server has the wrong IP addresses for deap machines (142.90.x.x).
  • deap06 DHCP is telling all machines to use the TRIUMF DNS server (to resolve internet addresses - google, etc). To avoid confusion between local deap00, etc hostnames and deap00, etc hostnames from TRIUMF, /etc/nsswitch.conf "hosts:" entry has to list "nis" before "dns".
  • hopefully the deap00, etc hostnames will be resolved correctly by the SNOlab DNS servers and all this kludging can go away.

System monitoring tools:

  • ganglia
  • triumf_nodeinfo
  • konstantin's ganglia packages (monitor_nfs, ganglia sensors, top, etc) - To install/update: yum --disablerepo="*" --enablerepo=konstantin update
  • diskscrub

Backups

  • backups of Linux images:
    • backups of linux images are done to deap00:/data/root/backups using cron job on deap00:/etc/cron.d/backup.lxdaq.cron and deap00:~root/backup.lxdaq
  • backups of home directories: NONE
  • backups of data disks: NONE

Creating boot disks for deap01..deap05

mirrored 16GB USB Flash disks

go here Cloning_raid1_boot_disks

single 8GB/16GB USB Flash disks

The V7865 VME processors use single USB flash disks. To create the boot disks, follow instructions for #64GB_SSD_boot_disks, but clone "lxdeap01" instead of "deap01".

64GB SSD boot disks

  • attach SSD disk to any of the deap01..deap05 machines (SATA+power)
  • login as root to that machine
  • "fdisk -l" to identify which /dev/sdX disk it is
  • cd /data/root/backups
  • ./clone.perl ./deap01 /dev/sdX
  • observe script completes sucessfully and prints "Done. You can remove /dev/sdX and try to boot from it."
  • disconnect the disk
  • connect to new machine, try to boot from it
