IOC Manager

IOC manager is a GUI and CLI application for managing procServ instances that run EPICS IOCs.

Deploying a Release

1. Pick the release to deploy and use that tag instead of R1.0.0 in the instructions below

export RELVER=R1.0.0

2. Make sure you have no conda environment sourced
3. Enter the release area

cd $PYPS_SITE_TOP/apps/iocmanager

4. Clone the release into the release area at the new version:

git clone git@github.com:pcdshub/iocmanager.git --depth 1 -b $RELVER $RELVER

5. Enter the repo and make

cd ${RELVER}
make

6. Test a little bit: make sure you can still run iocmanager and imgr

• Note: this also will generate the .pyc files, which is helpful

./scripts/IocManager tst
./scripts/imgr --hutch tst list

7. Update the symbolic link "latest-R3" if we're in the R3 series, or "latest" if we're in the R2 series.

cd ..
ln -sfn $RELVER latest-R3

8. Write-protect the release

chmod -R a-w $RELVER
