Standard Procedures

A new MIB (combination) is available and ready to be used

The MIB to be ingested can be specified in two different ways, either by the CVS MibTags or by the database MibLabels.

ccm -loadmib PACS_MIB_TAG EGSE_MIB_TAG CDMSSIM_MIB_TAG

or

ccm -loadmib=MIB_LABEL

The MIB loading does not affect any ongoing operation. It can be executed at any time.

A new (modifiable) instrumentModel shall be created using new MIB definition

The MIB must be already ingested into the database using the above procedure.

Depending from the source for the initial CUS definitions two command options are available.

A dialog window will pop-up to enter a CVS comment if none was entered at the command line.

Each of these options will create an instrumentModel, load it with the specified MIB, load the requested CUS definitions (also updating the CVS repository) and create the first missionConfiguration for this new instrumentModel. Finally the property file will be updated with the new instrumentModel and missionConfiguration and the test-control server will be restarted.

<!> Note: The CUS editor "cusgui" must be restarted to view (and edit) the new modifiable instrumentModel.

Publish CUS modifications for the current instrumentModel

Whenever you want to make the CUS modification edited with the CUS editor available for commanding you must commit your changes to the database to update the instrumentModel and you must use the following command to create a new missionConfiguration and make it available.

ccm -updatecus -cvscomment=comment

A dialog window will pop-up to enter a CVS comment if none was entered at the command line.

Monitoring TestControl and TmIngestion

To monitor and control both TmIngestion and TestControl convinience procedures exist.

TestControl start       # starting TestControl, it will run in the background
TestControl stop        # stopping TestControl
TestControl status      # showing the output of "ps -lf" of TestControl (if it runs)
TestControl log         # showing the tail of the TestControl log file and continue to monitor it

TmIngestion start       # starting TmIngestion, it will run in the background
TmIngestion stop        # stopping TmIngestion
TmIngestion status      # showing the output of "ps -lf" of TmIngestion (if it runs)
TmIngestion log         # showing the tail of the TmIngestion log file and continue to monitor it
