Storage Upgrade

Pools

To change our pools to a 64 bits node host, important directories:

• The pool directory. It contains a control/ directory with meta data, a data/ directory with data, a one or more setup files.
• An entry in the pool_name_n.poollist (i.e. spraid02.poollist) file stored in the config/ directory of the dCache installation. This entry contains the path to the pool directory, the name of the pool and various settings.

Follow these steps to move a pool. Let's assume you move pool POOL_1 from SOURCE to DEST. SOURCE and DEST may

• Make sure the pool is shut down /opt/d-cache/bin/dcache stop.
• Copy the directory containing POOL_1 from SOURCE to DEST (take care not to overwrite files at DEST).
• Copy the SOURCE.poollist file from SOURCE to DEST (you can add more pools in this same file)
• Restart the pools at DEST

Important: Do not start the pool at SOURCE after you moved the files.

• Another possibility is using dcache CopyManager to just copy POOL_1 from SOURCE to DEST.

Admin

It means that we want to migrate our PNFs to a different host, so we need to export our database. In our SOURCE admin it is done like a

/opt/d-cache/bin/dcache stop
/opt/pnfs/bin/pnfs stop
pg_dump -U pnfsserver admin >admin.dump 
pg_dump -U pnfsserver data1 >data1.dump

dropdb -U pnfsserver admin
dropdb -U pnfsserver data1
createdb -U postgres admin
createdb -U postgres data1
psql -U postgres admin
and restart your pnfs system.

 Guidelines 
Postgres
cd /tmp/
wget http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/reporpms/8.3/pgdg-centos-8.3-4.noarch.rpm
rpm -ivh pgdg-centos-8.3-4.noarch.rpm
yum install postgresql postgresql-server
chkconfig postgresql on
service postgresql initdb
chkconfig postgresql on && service postgresql start
/usr/bin/postgres --version


Java
chmod +x jdk-6u12-linux-x64-rpm.bin 
./jdk-6u12-linux-x64-rpm.bin 
java -version


PNFS

It is know a dependency with  an libpq.so.4 for 32 bits. The first workaround is include a symbolic link of /usr/lib64/libpq.so.4 to  /usr/lib/libpq.so.4 . The second one is install pnfs-postgresql using rpm -ivh --nodeps .
