Deploying a SmartSite Test Release

Information

Once a test tag has been made /wiki/spaces/UCDSAKAI/pages/120456414, it should be deployed.

As of this writing, smartsite-test has two nodes:

• littlejohn (headnode)
• braddock

Setup of deployment

• Start the deployment by building the test tag as follows on the headnode:

1. ~/config-staging/tomcatclean.sh
   

2. cd ~/src
   

3. svn co https://mware.ucdavis.edu/svn/ucd-sakai/sakai/tags/sakai_2-4-x-HEAD-test-XYZ
   

4. cd sakai_2-4-x-HEAD-test-XYZ
   

5. patches/scripts/apply-patches.pl
   

6. maven sakai
   

• Next step is to deploy the tag in the staging area

1. cd $HOME/config-staging
   

2. Delete any old tag directories

3. svn export https://mware.ucdavis.edu/svn/ucd-sakai/sakai-properties/tags/intg-sakai-2-4-x-HEAD-test-XYZ/sakai.properties
   

Deployment

• Stop all nodes in the cluster by ~/bin/stop.sh and make sure all tomcat processes are dead (eg ps -ef | grep java| grep sakai)

• On each node do(starting with the head node):

1. cd $HOME
   

2. ./setup-sakai-node.sh
   

3. cd $CATALINA_HOME/logs
   

4. ~/bin/start.sh ; tail -f catalina.out
   

5. Once sakai is fully up, test login and continue with the next node

After Deployment

• Make sure all JIRAs associated with the tag have a fix rev of the tag, and that they are all in proper state.
• Update MOTD under Administration Workspace to include new tag
