Page 4: Introduction
INTRODUCTION The EBPG5200 Linux Workstation is configured in the way the Vistec engineers use it as well. The advantage of this is that if any discussion is made with Vistec engineers, they know where to find the files and eventually support is easier. -

Page 6: How To Use Projects
HOW TO USE PROJECTS Beams commands make use of the environment variables which point to directories in wherein to write files or wherefrom to read files. Directly after login, these environment variables have default the next values: PG_BIN="/home/pg/bin" PG_JOBS="/home/pg/jobs" PG_LOG="/home/pg/log" PG_PATTERNS="/home/pg/patterns"... -
Page 7: How To Maintain Beams
Although a new beams-release can be got and installed in one action as shown above, it is recommended to do it in two steps. First get the release y09_07a from the Vistec ftp server: [beams@a217 ~]$ beams y09_07a --get Then extract and install beams-release y09_07a: [beams@a217 ~]$ beams y09_07a --install That is all to upgrade beams. -
Page 8: Documentation
DOCUMENTATION The distributions of “beams” include documentation files in html format and manual- pages. To get a full list of available “pg” commands, enter next command: [pg@a217 pg]~> man pg For detailed help for a particular “pg” command see the header “SEE ALSO” in the above manual page, e.g.: [pg@a217 pg]~>... -
Page 9: Network
See further the “beams”-documentation NETWORK When the system has to get other network settings for the Internet, execute: [root@a217 ~]# nm-connection-editor Then the next window appears on the screen: To make changes to the Internet, only change the device “eth0”. Ask the local network manager for the details to get system connected to the Internet. -
Page 10: Raid 1 Storage
RAID 1 STORAGE The system is delivered with a hardware RAID 1 implementation, which consists of one controller on the motherboard and 2 450GB SAS-disks. These two disks make, together one 450GB storage device. With RAID 1, a storage device contains 2 disks, which are identical mirrored. -

Thus it is a good practice to keep the IP-address of a217 in /etc/hosts to 127.0.0.2 in case the system is still at Vistec but when it is at the final destination, the IP-address of a217 should be the IP-address of the system itself. -
Page 12: Linux Tools
LINUX TOOLS On the system a set of tools are installed. These tools can be displayed by the command “tools”: [pg@a217 pg]~> tools Vistec Linux tools V02.02 (26-MAY-2010) astyle backup dump_nfs evaluate fbfiles findf gnome listpath preference purge search selinux... -
Page 13: Backup
BACKUP Although the system has a RAID 1 storage system, backups must always be done from at least the critical software. The critical software are the custom files in the /home/*- directories.

Page 18: Make The Automation Pc Usb Stick Bootable
12.3. Make the Automation PC USB stick bootable. To be able to boot the Automation PC from a USB-stick three settings from the factory default settings in the BIOS have to be changed. In principle this has to be done only once in the Automation PC’s life time. -

4) Be sure the DVD is mounted in the drive of the MCC-computer. 5) Be sure the prepared USB-stick is in a free USB-port of the Automation PC. 6) Be sure the subnet of the EBPG5200 is setup well; including the power of the HUB is turned on. -

This will also make the secundairy disk the primary. 2) select "Delete Volume" This makes the RAID-controller an ordinary SAS disk controller. Thus the next time the computer boots, the computer boots from the first disk it finds connected to this controller.
