Retrieval node

There are one production retrieval node and several development

host	Comment
broker_test	Dev node
broker_production	Production node

To install broker node:

ansible-playbook --extra-vars "host=broker_test" install_broker_node.yml

To clean broker node from daq services installation:

ansible-playbook --extra-vars "host=broker_test" clean_broker_node.yml

Receiver node

For each beamline there is at least one main receiver node:

host_id	Comment
sf_daq_alvra	Alvra
sf_daq_bernina	Bernina
sf_daq_maloja	Maloja

To cleanup receiver node from daq configuration:

to cleanup just detector configuration, without cleaning up installed software

ansible-playbook --extra-vars "host={host_id}" clean_receiver_daq.config.yml

to cleanup completely reciever node (detector configuration and software):

ansible-playbook --extra-vars "host={host_id}" clean_receiver_daq.all.yml

To install (after fresh daq installation or after cleanup) corresponding configuration:

ansible-playbook {configuration}.yml
e.g.
ansible-playbook daq4.JF06.yml

where {configuration} is from this table:

configuration	Comment
daq8.JF02_JF06-4M	Hamos+4M
daq8.JF02_JF06	Hamos+16M(unstable)
daq8.JF06-4M_JF09_JF10	Hamos + FLEX detectors
daq8.JF06-4M	4M detector
daq8.JF06	16M detector
daq3.JF01_JF03_JF04_JF07	1p5M+I0+Fluo+16M
daq3.JF01_JF03_JF07-3m	1p5M+I0+3modules_from16M
daq3.JF01_JF03_JF07_JF14	1p5M+I0+16M+RIXS
daq3.JF01_JF03_JF07	1p5M+I0+16M
daq3.JF01_JF03_JF13_JF14	1p5M+I0+Vacuum+RIXS
daq3.JF03_JF07_JF14	I0+16M+RIXS
daq3.JF03_JF14	I0+RIXS
daq3.JF14	RIXS
daq9.JF15	1st Maloja Detector

Troubleshooting

Problem with retrieval/broker node

Re-run broker node installation script

ansible-playbook --extra-vars "host=broker_production" install_broker_node.yml

if problem persist, clean broker node from services and re-run installation:

ansible-playbook --extra-vars "host=broker_production" clean_broker_node.yml
ansible-playbook --extra-vars "host=broker_production" install_broker_node.yml

Problem/reconfiguration of reciever node

In case reconfiguration of reciever node is needed (let's say Bernina switches to use combination 1p5M+I0, while before used configuration RIXS-only) - first clean previous detector configuration; then apply suitable configuration from blessed:

ansible-playbook --extra-vars "host=sf_daq_bernina" clean_receiver_daq.config.yml
ansible-playbook daq3.JF01_JF03_JF07.yml
