Implementation: Variables

• /etc/sysconfig/getupdates:

  • TARGET=wkslead
  • NFSHOST=software.nfs
  • NFSSWPATH=/software -> $NFSHOST/$NFSSWPATH (boot media) or $NFSSWPATH (autofs)
  • PROTOCOL=nfs
  • WORKDIR=/var/lib/grhat
  • STATBASE=/auto/clientinfo -> runtime (autofs)
  • NFSSTATMNT=clientinfo.nfs:/clientinfo -> load time from boot media

• $TARGET determines lead vs gold and wks vs srv

• clientinfo is NFS only and for stats and logs

• $PROTOCOL is currently http or nfs, and can be ftp easily
