Adding a new Project¶

First, choose which array to put the project:¶

• We have two arrays: /data/ftp/.1 and /data/ftp/.2
• Make sure there is enough disk space for your project
• If you expect the project to use a lot of bandwidth, put it on the less used array (look at iostat)

For local master (account on ftp-osl to upload files):¶

• add trigger permissions in cf.mirror:

  /data/trigger/set/$project mode=2775 owner=$project group=trigger
  

• add files/data/mirror/bin/update-master/$project:

#!/bin/bash

echo "We are master"

For remote mirrors (update via rsync):¶

• add project cronjob to files/etc/cron.d/mirror/update.master
• add rsync line to files/data/mirror/bin/update-master/$project:

#!/bin/bash

rsync -avH --delete projecthost::module/ /data/ftp/.$array/$project/

For all mirrors:¶

• add symlink in cf.mirror:

  /data/ftp/pub/$project -> /data/ftp/.1/$project
  

• if wanted, add vhost config: files/etc/apache2/vhosts.d/mirror/$project.osuosl.org.conf

• commit

For local master:¶

useradd -m $project
mkdir /data/ftp/.$array/$project
chown $project:$project /data/ftp/.$array/$project
ln -sf /data/ftp/pub/$project /home/$project/data

• put ssh keys in /home/$project/.ssh/authorized_keys
• add trigger script /home/$project/trigger-$project

#!/bin/bash

/data/mirror/bin/trigger-set $project

• add /home/$project/README

Your data is in /data/ftp/.$array/$project/
The symlink "data" links there for your convenience.

To signal the server to push your data to the other servers, run the
trigger-$project script.

For remote mirror:¶

• after committing/pushing changes in git, run cfexecd -F -q
• run the update script /data/mirror/bin/run-update <project> --email - this will sync the project, and trigger the slaves to sync with the master
