NetDRMS Release Notes

Version 2.6

Significant changes since Release 2.5

• The NetDRMS checkout is now configurable. Users can specify which Stanford-project directories they'd like to check out, in addition to the base files previously associated with the NetDRMS set of files. A set of new check-out scripts exists that allows users to check out or update custom NetDRMS file sets.
• A (required) parameter AUTOSELCOMP has been added to the local configuration file to allow automatic selection of icc or gcc as the compiler to be used automatically by the make system.
• SUM_delete_series() is now called on chunks of 10000 SUs at a time instead of being called on all SUs individually. This prevents SUMS from being tied up for a long time when there is an attempt to delete a large series.
• localhost is now an allowed database host in DRMS modules.
• Added a new utility module set_info. It works like set_keys, except that it can ingest multiple files into a generic segment, and it can ingest FITS files into a FITS-protocol segment.
• Derived an efficient SQL query used to generate reports on SUMS usage. The scripts that evaluate this query do so by directly accessing SUMS tables.
• Provides an updated version of the distribution package for drms_export_cgi_NetDRMS
• Numerous bug fixes

NetDRMS 2.6 is a subset of JSOC Version 5.13, q.v.
