A. Create rpm Development Tree (if it does not exist)
Create the tree by hand, or use "rpmdev-setuptree" to create necessary directories. To create by hand:
1. Go to your home directory; you don't need to be root
2. mkdir rpmbuild
3. cd rpmbuild
4. mkdir BUILD BUILDROOT RPMS SOURCES SPECS SRPMS
B. Install Dependencies
Below is the list of prerequisite packages. (These are also specified in the "pbspro.spec" file):
- gcc
- autoconf
- automake
- hwloc-devel
- libX11-devel
- libXt-devel
- libedit-devel
- libical-devel
- ncurses-devel
- perl
- postgresql-devel
- python-devel >= 2.6
- python-devel < 3.0
- tcl-devel
- tk-devel
- swig
- expat-devel (if suse then libexpat-devel)
- openssl-devel (if suse then libopenssl-devel)
1. Install dependencies for building PBS Pro:
For CentOS systems, run the following command as root:
yum install -y gcc make rpm-build libtool hwloc-devel libX11-devel libXt-devel libedit-devel libical-devel ncurses-devel perl postgresql-devel python-devel tcl-devel tk-devel swig expat-devel openssl-devel libXext libXft
For openSUSE systems, run the following command as root:
zypper install gcc make rpm-build libtool hwloc-devel libX11-devel libXt-devel libedit-devel libical-devel ncurses-devel perl postgresql-devel python-devel tcl-devel tk-devel swig libexpat-devel libopenssl-devel libXext-devel libXft-devel fontconfig
2. Install prerequisite packages for running PBS Pro:
In addition to the commands below, you should also install a text editor of your choosing (vim, emacs, gedit, etc.).
For CentOS systems, run the following command as root:
yum install -y expat libedit postgresql-server python sendmail sudo tcl tk libical
For openSUSE systems, run the following command as root:
zypper install expat libedit postgresql-server python sendmail sudo tcl tk libical1
3. Install prerequisite packages for testing PBS Pro:
Make sure you have the following on your local system:
the pip command
the sudo command
the which command
the net-tools package
C. Build the rpm Package for PBS Pro <pbs_version>
You can either build from source cloned from GitHub, or build from source rpm (srpm).
To Build from source cloned from GitHub:
Note: <pbs_version> specified at pbspro/src/pbspro.spec
1. Go to pbspro directory which you have cloned (git clone https://github.com/PBSPro/pbspro)
2. Run the autogen.sh script to generate the configure script and Makefile.in files
./autogen.sh
(generates configure script and Makefile.in templates)
3. Run ./configure
4. Generate the source tar that will use to build the rpm
make dist
make dist generates .tar.gz (pbspro-<pbs_version>.tar.gz) file in the same directory.
5. Move the pbspro-<pbs_version>.tar.gz file to ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
6. Move pbspro/pbspro.spec file to ~/rpmbuild/SPECS
7. Change directory to ~/rpmbuild/SPECS
8. Run the below command
rpmbuild -ba pbspro.spec (This command will generate the below rpm packages in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS dirctory)
a) pbspro-client-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm
b) pbspro-debuginfo-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm
c) pbspro-execution-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm
d) pbspro-server-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm
To Build the rpm Package from pbspro-<pbs_version>.src.rpm:
2. You can either use the –rebuild option, or you can build the rpm yourself.
To use the --rebuild option:
Do an rpmbuild –rebuild pbspro-<pbs_version>.src.rpm
To build the rpm yourself:
Install the pbspro-<pbs_version>.src.rpm
rpm -i pbspro-<pbs_version>.src.rpm
This installs pbspro-<pbs_version>.tar.gz and pbspro.spec in their respective directories under the rpmbuild dev tree.
Change directory to ~/rpmbuild/SPECS and run the below command
rpmbuild -ba pbspro.spec (This command generates the below rpm packages in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS dirctory)
a) pbspro-client-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm
b) pbspro-debuginfo-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm
c) pbspro-execution-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm
d) pbspro-server-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm
D. Install and Test Your rpm Package Locally
Installing and Testing Locally on CentOS7:
- Log in as root
- Change directory to ~/rpmbuild/RPMS
- Install the package: yum -y install /root/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/pbspro-server-<pbs_version>.x86_64.rpm
- Enable MoM via “PBS_START_MOM=1” in /etc/pbs.conf file
- Start the PBS Pro daemons using /etc/init.d/pbs start
- From a non-root account, make sure that PBS works by running a job
- Continue as root
- cd test/fw
- Install PTL and dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt .
- Create user accounts and groups required by PTL: pbs_config --make-ug
- cd ../tests
- Run PTL tests: pbs_benchpress -l INFOCLI2 -o ptl.txt
- Once pbs_benchpress completes, you can find the PTL log in ptl.txt
Installing and Testing Locally on openSUSE 13.2:
- Log in as root
- Change directory to ~/rpmbuild/RPMS
- Install the package: zypper -n install /root/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/pbspro-server-<pbs_version>.x86_64.rpm
- Enable MoM via “PBS_START_MOM=1” in /etc/pbs.conf file
- Start the PBS Pro daemons using /etc/init.d/pbs start
- From a non-root account, make sure that PBS works by running a job
- Continue as root
- cd test/fw
- Install PTL and dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt .
- Create user accounts and groups required by PTL: pbs_config --make-ug
- cd ../tests
- Run PTL tests: pbs_benchpress -l INFOCLI2 -o ptl.txt
- Once pbs_benchpress completes, you can find the PTL log in ptl.txt
