(C) UC Regents, 2012 Welcome to the Rocks Source Tree. ******************** CAUTION *********************** Building Rocks from source is (a) Time consuming (b) Invasive. A great deal of software will be added to to your build host. There are literally 100+ packages that are needed to build the 300+ RPMs of a full build (c) Space consuming. At least 40GB of free space I. Tested Build Environments There are two tested methods of building Rocks 1) On a CentOS system without Rocks 2) On a Rocks Development Appliance II. Setup A. Download the full source tree To download all the Rocks source code use the ./init.sh script in this repo. It cycles through all the required subrepo and download them automatically. (for more info run ./init.sh -h) B. Update OS Mirror location One of the primary reasons that so much disk space is needed is because the complete CentOS distribution and updates are mirrored, then built as DVD images, and finally added to the local distribution (3 copies). Disk space is cheap. Having a mirror that is close to you (network distance) makes the mirroring process much quicker. The file src/roll/base/OSROLL/version.mk contains a line MIRRORURL=http://mirror.hmc.edu (a) Edit the above file to specify a mirror closer to you (b) The environment variable WORKDIR controls where the mirror is created. If WORKDIR does not exist, /tmp is used. IIIa. Bootstrapping a CentOS system without Rocks Rocks needs Rocks to build completely. In particular, the Rocks database has to be set up properly. The steps to perform this are as follows: (a) Install CentOS as a Desktop Workstation (b) Download Rocks Source code. (c) on CentOS 6 cd src/roll/base (c1)on CentOS 7 cd src/roll/core (d) ./bootstrap0.sh < /dev/null &> /tmp/bootstrap0.sh.out Inspect the the last few hundred lines of /tmp/bootstrap0.sh.out, You should see yum install a large number of packages. (e) Log out. Log back in, to make sure that newly installed /etc/profile scripts have been sourced. OR IIIb. Bootstrapping a Development Appliance Rocks needs Rocks to build completely. Most of the prerequisites are already on a Develeopment Appliance, but further prep is needed to build rocks. The steps to perform this are as follows: (a) Install Rocks node as a Development Appliance (b) Download Rocks Source code. (c) on CentOS 6 cd src/roll/base (c1)on CentOS 7 cd src/roll/core (d) ./prepdevel.sh < /dev/null &> /tmp/prepdevel.sh.out Inspect the the last few hundred lines of /tmp/prepdevel.sh.out, You should see yum install a large number of packages. (e) Log out. Log back in, to make sure that newly installed /etc/profile scripts have been sourced. In particular, /etc/profile.d/rocks-binaries.sh IV. Results of Bootstrap If things have worked well, then # rocks list roll Output should look similar to the following: # rocks list roll NAME VERSION ARCH ENABLED CentOS: 5.8 x86_64 yes Updates-CentOS-5.8: 2012-04-17 x86_64 yes Notice that the Updates Roll should have the date on which bootsrapped. V. Building Rocks The primary driving script to build all of Rocks is builder.sh. The Order in which rolls are built is critical, both the base roll and kernel rolls need to be built and part of the local distribution before any other rolls have been built. If for some reason, the base and/or kernel rolls do not build, the build will abort. # ./builder.sh < /dev/null &> /tmp/builder.sh.out & Each Roll will have the output of its build stored in # /tmp/clean-<roll>.out (Output of make clean) # /tmp/make-<roll>-bootstrap.out (Output of Bootstrap.sh for each roll) # /tmp/make-<roll>-roll.out (Output of Roll build) # /tmp/build-<roll>.out (Summary of Roll Build, Inventory of RPMs) VI. Example build-<roll>.out output.
