||
|
|
CPUs, aka PARISC <br>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
7x00 and 2.0 8x00 CPUs (aka PARISC 2.0). Runs on 64 Bit
|
||
|
|
also, The seti app <br>
|
||
|
|
is 20 % slower than the 64 bit optimized binary). Should
|
||
|
|
also run on IA64 <br>
|
||
|
|
(Itanium), but very slow. HPUX 11.x (11.0, 11.11 (11i
|
||
|
|
Version 1) and 11.23 (<br>
|

|
|
<big>1.1 Install with swinstall</big><br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Unzip the depot package : <br>
|
||
|
|
gunzip

|
|
seti-boinc_32.depot.gz <br>
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Source your /etc/profile with the new entries required for boinc and
|
||
|
|
seti : <br>
|

cp -R seti-boinc_64/*/opt/boinc /opt/<br>
|

|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
cp ./catalog/seti-boinc_64/SETI_BOINC-LIB/postinstall /opt/boinc<br>
|
||
|
|
-> now you can make a tar file for example, from
|
||
|
|
the destination directory <br>
|
||
|
|
/opt/boinc to copy it to other
|
||
|
|
sytems, or move wherever you want. <br>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Add this to /etc/profile, or the in the profile of the user : <br>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SHLIB_PATH=$DESTINATION_DIR_FROM_BOINC/lib:$SHLIB_PATH<br>
|
||
|
|
-> for example
|
||
|
|
SHLIB_PATH=/home/seti/lib <br>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
export SHLIB-PATH<br>
|

|
<big><big>2. add a group and a user</big> </big><br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Don't run the boinc client and seti app as root !<br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
This steps require a root account :<br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Add a group (groupadd -g $GROUPID $GROUPNAME ) : <br>
|
||
|
|
groupadd -g 200 seti<br>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Add a user (useradd -u $USERID -g $GROUPID -d $HOMEDIRECTORY
|
||
|
|
$USERNAME) : <br>
|
||
|
|
useradd -u 200 -g 200
|
||
|
|
-d /opt/boinc seti<br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Change the password for you new user (passwd $USERNAME):<br>
|
||
|
|
passwd seti<br>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Change the owner and group for the boinc directory, where the client is
|
||
|
|
located (<br>
|
||
|
|
chown $USERNAME:$GROUPNAME $SETIDIRECTORY)<br>
|
||
|
|
chown seti:seti /opt/boinc<br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Feel free to change the directories, if you want... <br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
<big><br>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<big>3. Register your Account for seti@home</big></big><br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
You can use the standard registration mechanism within the client : <br>
|
||
|
|
./boinc_client
|
||
|
|
-attach_project setiweb.berkeley.edu $ACCOUNT_KEY<br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
If this don't work, whis workaround helps :<br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Change $ACCOUNT_KEY in the file
|
||
|
|
/opt/boinc/account_setiathome.berkeley.edu.xml<br>
|
||
|
|
in the key you get from email from the seti@home project. <br>
|
||
|
|
Edit line 3, and do not set any blanks before or after the key. <br>

<big>6.1 Multi processor systems </big><br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
For muli processor systems, you need to setup the preferences on your
|
||
|
|
account <br>
|
||
|
|
page. If this is not configured, your multi processor system will only
|
||
|
|
use one <br>
|
||
|
|
cpu.<br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
At the seti homepage (setiweb.berkeley.edu) login with your account.<br>
|
||
|
|
Click to "View or edit general preferences". Then to "Edit preferences"<br>
|
||
|
|
Add in the section "On multiprocessors, use at most XX processors" the
|
||
|
|
number <br>
|
||
|
|
of CPUs your system have, and click to "Update preferences".<br>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
Now, you need to update your client with the new preferences you made
|
||
|
|
on the <br>
|
||
|
|
website :<br>
|
||
|
|
seti@windu:/opt/boinc # ./boinc_client -update_prefs
|
||
|
|
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu<br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
You client will download some new work...<br>

<br>
|
||
|
|
In /sbin/init.d is a script for start boinc at boot and stop for
|
||
|
|
shutdown. <br>
|
||
|
|
It's linked to /sbino/rc3.d/S990boinc. <br>
|
||
|
|
It will also redirect stdout and stderr from the boinc client, redirect
|
||
|
|
the <br>
|
||
|
|
output from the boinc script /opt/boinc/boinc.sh to
|
||
|
|
/opt/boinc/boinc.log. The <br>
|
||
|
|
script will keep on boinc running in a look, and could mail you, if
|
||
|
|
boinc was<br>
|
||
|
|
terminated abnormaly.<br>
|
||
|
|
This script is configurable by /etc/rc.config.d/boinc. For details how
|
||
|
|
to <br>
|
||
|
|
configure, please look into /etc/rc.config.d/boinc. <br>
