Standard reboot of the station's computers

Reboot procedure to be used during maintenance operations or in case of a serious blockage during observation.

 



The station is composed of: a synology cluster that acts as a system server, glslogin1 & glslogin2 that acts as a DHCP machine (glslogin1 by default, and glslogin2 in case the previous fails), and other machines (NUCs and LCUs).

This procedure does not reboot the SynologyCluster Disk Server. The server is a double seerver with each server having double power cords. It almost never requires rebooting.

The procedure below works both as a last resort and a machine diagnosis.



 

  1. Reboot glslogin1. If it is not possible to reboot it via SW, then you have to power cycle: turn it off, wait 10 seconds and then turn it back on again.
  2. Try to login to glslogin1; if this is not possible, to glslogin2.
    1. If it's impossible to log in on either of the 2 machines after rebooting, the problem may come from the disk server (solution).
    2. If it's possible to log in on glslogin2 but not on glslogin1, then glslogin1 then is down.
  3. Once logged in, check if you can access your data by typing in a terminal:
    1. ls ~ ; if you don't have access to your data, it's a problem on the disk server (solution)
  4. If you see your data, it means that the disk server and the current workstation (glslogin1 ou 2) are working
  5. Restart the other workstations by typing in a terminal:
    1. if you are on glslogin1: T_reboot_servers glslogin2 glsdrs glsaux glsmonitor
    2. if you are on glslogin2: T_reboot_servers glsdrs glsaux glsmonitor
  6. Check workstation status by login on glsdrs and glsaux. glsmonitor makes an auto login and displays Euler's sensors
  7. Restart the LCUs by typing in a terminal (and validating):
    1. T_reboot_lcu
  8. Check the status of the LCUs by typing in a terminal:
    1. T_show_date

 You should see here which machines are accessible. The only machine that is not needed in normal observations is aux.

If after a complete reboot the observation is not possible, we are certainly facing a serious problem: write a problem-report
