A. Create rpm Development Tree (if it does not exist)

The rpmdevtools package contains the rpmdev-setuptree command which will create the necessary directories.

sudo yum install -y rpmdevtools

rpmdev-setuptree

Alternatively, to create the tree 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 "openpbs.spec" file):

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 python3-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 python3-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 python3 sendmail sudo tcl tk libical

For openSUSE systems, run the following command as root:

zypper install expat libedit postgresql-server python3 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 OpenPBS <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 openpbs/src/openpbs.spec

1.    Go to openpbs directory which you have cloned (git clone https://github.com/openpbs/openpbs)
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 (openpbs-<pbs_version>.tar.gz) file in the same directory.
5.    Move the openpbs-<pbs_version>.tar.gz file to ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
6.    Copy openpbs/openpbs.spec file to  ~/rpmbuild/SPECS
7.    Change directory to ~/rpmbuild/SPECS
8.    Run the below command
                  rpmbuild -ba openpbs.spec         (This command will generate the below rpm packages in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS dirctory)

                  a) openpbs-client-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm 

                  b) openpbs-debuginfo-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm 

                  c) openpbs-execution-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm

                  d) openpbs-server-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm


To Build the rpm Package from openpbs-<pbs_version>.src.rpm:

  1. Download from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/pbsproci/

2. You can either use the –rebuild option, or you can build the rpm yourself.

To use the --rebuild option:

Do an rpmbuild –rebuild openpbs-<pbs_version>.src.rpm


To build the rpm yourself:

Install the openpbs-<pbs_version>.src.rpm

rpm -i openpbs-<pbs_version>.src.rpm    

This installs openpbs-<pbs_version>.tar.gz and openpbs.spec in their respective directories under the rpmbuild dev tree.

Change directory to ~/rpmbuild/SPECS and run the below command

rpmbuild -ba openpbs.spec               (This command generates the below rpm packages in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS dirctory)

a) openpbs-client-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm

b) openpbs-debuginfo-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm

c) openpbs-execution-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm

d) openpbs-server-<pbs_version>-0.x86_64.rpm

D. Install and Test Your rpm Package Locally

Installing and Testing Locally on CentOS7:

  1.  Log in as root
  2.  Change directory to ~/rpmbuild/RPMS
  3.  Install the package: yum -y install /root/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/openpbs-server-<pbs_version>.x86_64.rpm
  4.  Enable MoM via “PBS_START_MOM=1” in /etc/pbs.conf file
  5.  Start the PBS Pro daemons using /etc/init.d/pbs start
  6.  From a non-root account, make sure that PBS works by running a job
  7.  Continue as root
  8.  cd test/fw
  9.  Install PTL and dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt .
  10.  Create user accounts and groups required by PTL:  pbs_config --make-ug
  11.  cd ../tests
  12.  Run PTL tests: pbs_benchpress -l INFOCLI2 -o ptl.txt
  13.  Once pbs_benchpress completes, you can find the PTL log in ptl.txt

Installing and Testing Locally on openSUSE 13.2:

  1.  Log in as root
  2.  Change directory to ~/rpmbuild/RPMS 
  3.  Install the package: zypper -n install /root/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/openpbs-server-<pbs_version>.x86_64.rpm
  4.  Enable MoM via “PBS_START_MOM=1” in /etc/pbs.conf file
  5.  Start the PBS Pro daemons using /etc/init.d/pbs start 
  6.  From a non-root account, make sure that PBS works by running a job
  7.  Continue as root
  8.  cd test/fw
  9.  Install PTL and dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt .
  10.  Create user accounts and groups required by PTL: pbs_config --make-ug
  11.  cd ../tests
  12.  Run PTL tests: pbs_benchpress -l INFOCLI2 -o ptl.txt
  13.  Once pbs_benchpress completes, you can find the PTL log in ptl.txt
