Qc2-OPE-RUN

Ok! Kvalobs Qc1 and Qc2 is built in the test environment. There are still some integration issues that are unresolved and the standard kvalobs environement is not yet Qc2 aware.

STEP 1: Update kv_ctl.conf

on dev-vm116 the relevant file is located: /metno/kvalobs/etc/kvalobs/kv_ctl.conf and shall be edited to include kvQc2:

#START_PROGS="kvQabased kvManagerd kvDataInputd kvServiced kvAgregated"
START_PROGS="kvQabased kvManagerd kvDataInputd kvServiced kvAgregated kvQc2"

#STOP_PROGS="kvQabased kvManagerd kvDataInputd kvServiced kvAgregated"
STOP_PROGS="kvServiced kvDataInputd kvQabased kvManagerd kvAgregated kvQc2"

TIMEOUT=70
KVUSER=kvalobs

kvAgregated now removed from main kvalobs distro, thus no longer runs from kv_ctl.conf

STEP 2: Remember that we are currently working with a local installation. The html log files for kvQabased are written to: /metno/kvalobs/var/kvalobs/log/html

The script called by the default cron job does not know this and needs to be modified by editing /usr/lib/kvalobs/bin/qabase_cron.sh and making it point to the correct log/html directory.

#! /bin/sh

QABASELOGDIR=/metno/kvalobs/var/kvalobs/log/html
##QABASELOGDIR=$(kvconfig --localstatedir)/kvalobs/log/html

#find $QABASELOGDIR -name '*.html' -type f -mtime +0 -exec rm -f {} \;
find $QABASELOGDIR -xdev -name '*.html' -type f -mmin +360 -exec rm -f {} \;
#find $QABASELOGDIR -name '*.html' -type f  -exec rm -f {} \;
find $QABASELOGDIR -xdev -type d -cmin +120 -exec rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty {} \;

# create nice map of existing log-files (output: html)
####find $QABASELOGDIR -name '*.html' -type f | /metno/kvalobs/bin/log_map > $QABASELOGDIR/log_map.html

Then run the corresponding standard cron jobs as described:

https://dokit.met.no/sysdok/kvalobs/installasjon#cron-jobber

Clean-up of the html log files is necessary to manage disk space.

STEP 3 Now run kvalobs as user kvalobs with kvQc2:

kvQc2 requires one additional environment variable to be set:

$ export KVALOBS=/metno/kvalobs

or place this in the .bashrc [TBD .. talk with BM, VB if this is still necessary].

$ cd
$ bin/kvstart

The following result is expected:

KVBIN=/metno/kvalobs/bin
KVPID=/metno/kvalobs/var/kvalobs/run
TIMEOUT=70
 
 
  Starter kvalobs dette kan ta noe tid!
  Hvis det ikke skjer noe på MER enn 70 sekund
  bruk CTRL-C for å avbryte!
 
 
Starter kvQabased ....Ok!
Starter kvManagerd ....Ok!
Starter kvDataInputd ....Ok!
Starter kvServiced ....Ok!
Starter kvAgregated ....Ok!
Starter kvQc2 ....Ok!

STEP 4 … and to stop:

$ cd
$ bin/kvstop

The following result is expected:

listopt: 0
killallopt: 0
KVPID=/metno/kvalobs/var/kvalobs/run
TIMEOUT=70
node: dev-vm116
 
 
  Stopper kvalobs dette kan ta noe tid!
  Hvis det ikke skjer noe på MER enn 70 sekund
  bruk CTRL-C for å avbryte!
 
 
kvServiced .....Stopped!
kvDataInputd .....Stopped!
kvQabased .....Stopped!
kvManagerd .....Stopped!
kvAgregated .....Stopped!
kvQc2 .....Stopped!

NB The timeout has been set to 70s since kvQc2 checks for new configuration files every minute and the rest of the time either sleeps or processes a given set of instructions.
