• Getting Started:
    • ssh west
    • cd /home/sandboxes/pbrandt/gbt_devel/src/guppi_daq
    • source /home/gbt7/bedevere/McPython.bash
    • source vegas_spec-hpc.bash
    • bin/vegas_setup_shmem (NOT vegas_init_shmem!!!)
    • bin/vegas_hpc_hbw&
    • python ../sim/roach_spead_simulator.py

  • Options:
    • monitor the status of the VEGAS software by running (in a different terminal window): python2.5 python/guppi_status_monitor.py
    • reset the shmem by invoking: gbt_devel/src/guppi_daq/bin/clean_guppi_shmem
    • NOTE: clean_guppi_shmem doesn't clean all the vegas hpc resources. use the following to clean up completely:
      • ipcrm -m shmid
      • ipcrm -s semid
    • use ipcs -a to view interprocess resources

  • Building software for 64bit machines:
    • type 'vegasenv' which does the following...
    • export YGOR_ROOT=/home/sandboxes/pbrandt/ygor64/ygor
    • export GB_ROOT=/home/sandboxes/pbrandt/ygor64/gb
    • export GBT_ROOT=/home/sandboxes/pbrandt/ygor64/gbt
    • source $YGOR_ROOT/ygor.bash
    • source /home/gbt7/bedevere/McPython.bash
