If these directions are followed carefully and mistakes are +avoided the basic installation should only take a half hour or so. +Additional time may be required to customize the system, to configure the +local tape drives and other devices, set up IRAF networking, and so on. +.PP +This Installation Guide is intended primarily for sites installing IRAF on +an SGI workstation running IRIX 4.0.x or later. Other popular UNIX systems +for which IRAF is available, e.g. Ultrix and SunOS, have their own system +specific IRAF installation guides. + +.NH +Installing IRIX/IRAF +.PP +Although the details of how IRIX/IRAF is installed or updated depend upon the +type of distribution and the desired local system configuration, the basic +procedure is always the same. First one obtains the distribution files, +then one follows the procedure outlined below to install the system. Most +of these steps should be performed while logged in as IRAF; superuser +permission is required in the final stages of the installation, to run the +\fIinstall\fP script. +.PP +System managers familiar with the installation of typical UNIX programs +should beware that IRAF, being a large system in its own right and not a +UNIX program, does not always follow to the usual conventions. It is wise +to read and adhere to the installation instructions to avoid problems. +.XS +\fR# Prepare the root IRAF directory.\fP +if new installation + create iraf account +else if updating an old installation + save locally modified files; delete old system + +\fR# Install the files.\fP +login as iraf +unpack the core system distribution +configure the BIN directories + +\fR# Merge local revisions into new system.\fP +if updating an old installation + merge locally modified files back into new system + +run the iraf install script to complete the installation +checkout the new system +.XE +.PP +If problems should arise during the installation help is available via the +IRAF HOTLINE (602-323-4160), or by sending email to \f(CWiraf@noao.edu\fP. + +.NH 2 +Prepare the root IRAF directory +.NH 3 +If updating an existing IRAF installation... +.PP +If you are updating an existing IRAF installation then you will be replacing +IRAF by the new version, and IRAF should already have an account and root +directory on the desired host system. You should save any locally modified +files and delete the old system, e.g., login as IRAF and enter something +like the following. +.XS +% cd $iraf\(dg +% tar -cf /scr0/oiraf.tar local dev unix/hlib +% /bin/rm -rf * +.XE +.FS +\(dg\0\(CW$iraf\fP symbolizes the UNIX pathname of the root IRAF directory. +If no "iraf" environment variable is defined just supply the actual pathname. +.FE +.PP +There are many possible variations on this, e.g., you could use \fImv\fR to +move the above directories to someplace outside the main IRAF directory +tree. Although it is probably simplest and safest to save entire +directories as in the example, in practice only a few files are likely to +have been modified. These are the following. +.XS +dev/graphcap +dev/hosts +dev/tapecap +dev/termcap +hlib/extern.pkg +hlib/login.cl +hlib/zzsetenv.def +local/.login +.XE +.PP +Once the old system has been deleted you are ready to install the new one, +as described in \(sc2.2. It is important to delete the old system first to +avoid creating junk files or directories when the new system is installed +(due to file or directory name changes or deletions). Once the new system +has been restored to disk, do \fInot\fR merely restore the files saved above, +as you will need to carefully merge local changes into the versions of the +files supplied with the new IRAF release (more on this later). +.NH 3 +If installing IRAF for the first time... +.PP +If you are installing IRAF for the first time then the first step is to set +up a new account for the user `\f(CWiraf\fP'. This is necessary for IRAF +system management, which should always be done from the IRAF account. The +IRAF account has special login files which set up a custom UNIX environment +for IRAF system management. Having an IRAF account provides a convenient +place (the IRAF system manager's login directory) to keep scratch files +created during system configuration. +.PP +The location of the IRAF root directory is arbitrary. Our practice here is +to locate the software in a system file storage area separate from the IRIX +files (to simplify OS upgrades), and then use a symbolic link such as +/iraf or /usr/iraf to point to the actual root directory. This makes life +simpler if IRAF is NFS mounted on several machines and it is later necessary +to move the IRAF files. Try to keep the path to the physical IRAF root +directory short to avoid filename truncation problems when IRAF is run. +.PP +The login directory for the iraf account should be $iraf/local (e.g., +/iraf/iraf/local), rather than the IRAF root directory $iraf as one might +expect. This is done to provide a work area for local files separate from +the main IRAF directory tree, to simplify updates and make it easier to keep +track of what has been locally added and what is standard IRAF. In any +case, make sure that when the IRAF account is set up the login directory is +set correctly, or the IRAF environment will not be set up properly, and +later problems are sure to result. +.PP +A typical IRAF installation consists of the main IRAF release, a number of +BIN directories (the IRAF binaries), and additional directories for layered +software such as STSDAS, PROS, and so on. If sufficient disk space is +available to keep everything in one area the following directory structure +is recommended. +.XS +/iraf/iraf \fR# iraf root directory ($iraf)\fP +/iraf/iraf/local \fR# iraf login directory (~iraf)\fP +/iraf/irafbin \fR# iraf BIN directories\fP +/iraf/irafbin/bin.irix \fR# IRIX binaries - iraf core system\fP +/iraf/irafbin/noao.bin.irix \fR# IRIX binaries - iraf NOAO package\fP +/iraf/stsdas \fR# layered package\fP +/iraf/xray \fR# layered package\fP + \fI(etc.)\fP +.XE +.PP +For the purpose of this example we assume that the IRAF files are stored in +/iraf; as we say this might be a link and the actual directory is +arbitrary. Given this directory the IRAF root $iraf would be "/iraf/iraf/" +and the login directory for the IRAF account would be /iraf/iraf/local. The +binaries for the core IRAF system would be in /iraf/irafbin/bin.irix, +with a link $iraf/bin.irix pointing to this directory (more on this +later). +.PP +Given the above directory structure the \f(CWpasswd\fR file entry for the +IRAF account would be something like the following. +.XS +iraf:2drP8tNQ:312:12:IRAF system login:/iraf/iraf/local:/bin/csh +.XE +.PP +Do not worry about configuring the environment files for the new account as +these will be created when the iraf system is later restored to disk. + +.NH 2 +Install the files +.PP +If you are installing from tape skip forward to \(sc2.2.2. If you are +installing from a network distribution (i.e., from disk) continue with the +next section. +.NH 3 +Installing from a network distribution +.PP +IRIX/IRAF is available over the network via anonymous ftp from the node +\f(CWiraf.noao.edu\fR, in the subdirectory \f(CWiraf/v\fInnn\fP/IRIX\fR, +where "\f(CWv\fInnn\fR" is the IRAF version number, e.g., subdirectory +\f(CWiraf/v210/IRIX\fR for V2.10 IRIX/IRAF. +.PP +If IRAF is being installed from a network distribution all the architecture +independent IRAF files for both the core IRAF system and the NOAO packages +will be in the distribution file \f(CWas.irix.gen\fR. This "file" is stored +in the network archive as a directory wherein the large distribution file +has been split into a number of smaller pieces, e.g., +.XS +% ls as.irix.gen +CHECKSUMS as.irix.gen.Z.12 as.irix.gen.Z.26 +FILES.Z as.irix.gen.Z.13 as.irix.gen.Z.27 +as.irix.gen.Z.00 as.irix.gen.Z.14 as.irix.gen.Z.28 +as.irix.gen.Z.01 as.irix.gen.Z.15 as.irix.gen.Z.29 +as.irix.gen.Z.02 as.irix.gen.Z.16 as.irix.gen.Z.30 +as.irix.gen.Z.03 as.irix.gen.Z.17 as.irix.gen.Z.31 + \fI(etc.)\fP +.XE +.LP +Assume that the directory \f(CWas.irix.gen\fR as shown above has been +recreated somewhere on the machine on which IRAF is to be installed. +We can restore the main IRAF source tree as follows. +.XS +% whoami +iraf +% cd $iraf +% cat /\fIpath\fP/as.irix.gen/as.* | uncompress | tar -xpf - +.XE +After the above finishes the root IRAF directory should appear as follows +(this is for V2.10). +.XS +HS.IRIX.GEN bin.generic lib noao +IS.PORT.GEN bin.irix local pkg +README dev math sys +bin doc mkpkg unix +.XE +The files \f(CWbin.irix\fR (and others for multiple architectures) are links +to the IRAF BIN +directories (for binary executables), which probably do not exist yet. +Configuring the BIN directories is discussed in section \(sc2.2.3. +.NH 3 +Installing from tape +.PP +If you have not already done so, log into the IRAF account so that the files +when restored will belong to IRAF. Mount the distribution tape, which may +be a cartridge tape, a 6250 bpi 9 track tape, a DAT tape, an Exabyte, or +whatever. +.PP +IRAF distribution tapes consist of multiple files separated by tape marks, +with a TOC (table of contents) file as the first file on the tape. To find +out what is on the tape, rewind it and read out the TOC file as follows (the +actual device name will likely be different than that shown in the examples). +.XS +% mt -f /dev/nrtape rew; cat /dev/nrtape +.XE +This should cause a TOC file to be listed similar to the following, except +for the file names which will vary depending upon what type of distribution +you have (also the file sizes are now somewhat larger than what is shown). +The example below is for a distribution of IRIX/IRAF with the binaries. +.XS +0 Table of Contents + +1 AS.IRIX.GEN nn.n Mb IRAF, NOAO packages and IRIX/OS sources +2 IB.IRIX.MIP nn.n Mb IRIX binaries for IRAF system +3 NB.IRIX.MIP nn.n Mb IRIX binaries for NOAO packages +.XE +.PP +Here, the first column is the file number on the tape, the TOC file being +file zero (the first distribution file is number one), the second column is +the name of the tape file, the third column is the file size in megabytes +(this tells you how much space will be needed to unpack the file on disk), +and the last column is a description of the file contents. +.PP +There are three types of tape files in the example shown: the \f(CWAS\fR +file, which is all the IRAF sources (the core IRAF system, NOAO packages, +and the IRIX host system interface), the \f(CWIB\fR files, or IRAF core +system binaries, one for each architecture, and the \f(CWNB\fR files, or +NOAO package binaries. The NOAO package sources are included in the +\f(CWAS\fR file since most people requesting IRAF are expected to want the +astronomical reduction software, although IRAF can be configured without +this if desired. All of the file objects are UNIX \fItar\fR format files, +with the exception of the TOC file which is a simple text file. The +distribution files may be compressed if this was necessary to fit all the +files on a tape. +.PP +In the above example, the \f(CWIRIX\fR in the file names indicates that +these files are for SGI IRIX. A SunOS version 4 distribution is +indicated by a \f(CWSOS4\fR in the file names, and a DECstation Ultrix +distribution is indicated by a \f(CWDSUX\fP, and so on. In principle a +given distribution tape may contain any combination of these files. +.PP +The following commands would suffice to restore the main IRAF system to +disk, given the distribution tape described by the TOC file in our example +above. Once again, the tape device file and block size shown in the example +will very likely have to be changed to whatever is needed for the tape +device being used (the example is for a cartridge drive). +.XS +% whoami +iraf +% cd $iraf +% mt -f /dev/nrtape rew; mt -f /dev/nrtape fsf 1 +% tar -o -xpbf 126 /dev/nrtape +.XE +.PP +After the above tar file read operation, the tape is left positioned to +\fIjust before the EOF of the file just read\fR, since \fItar\fP stops +reading the file data before reading the physical EOF. Hence, an +\fImt\0fsf\fR will be required to position to the next file on the tape. +Any combination of \fIfsf\fP (forward skip file) or \fIbsf\fR (backward skip +file) operations may be used to position to a file on a 9 track tape. On a +cartridge tape, it is best to plan things so that only forward file skips +are used, using a rewind and forward skip if it is necessary to position to +an earlier file on the tape. +.PP +Once the main system, containing only sources, is installed it is possible to +create one or more empty BIN directories for the executables, then compile +and link the full system. More commonly one will merely read the precompiled +executables off the distribution tape, as we discuss in the next section. +.NH 3 +Configuring the BIN directories +.PP +In IRAF all the files specific to any particular architecture, e.g., IRIX +or SunOS are contained in +a single directory called the BIN, or "binary", directory. To run IRAF +you must install not only the \f(CWAS\fR (all-sources) directory tree, but +the BIN directories (the IRAF core system and the NOAO packages have separate +BIN directories). +.PP +The BIN directories for the IRAF core system or a layered package (such as +NOAO) are located, logically or physically, in the root directory of the +IRAF core system or layered package. Every layered package has its own set +of BIN directories. In the distributed V2.10 system you will find the +following BIN files (directories or symbolic links) at the IRAF root. +.XS +link bin -> bin.generic +directory bin.generic +link bin.irix -> ../irafbin/bin.irix +link noao/bin.irix -> ../../irafbin/noao.bin.irix +.XE +.PP +If the IRAF directory structure is set up as described in \(sc2.1.2, with +$iraf located at iraf/iraf and the BIN directories stored in iraf/irafbin, +then these links will not have to be modified. If a different directory +structure is used you will have to modify the links accordingly. +.PP +The \fIbin\fR link and the \fIbin.generic\fR directory are required for the +correct operation of the IRAF system software (\fImkpkg\fR) and are +maintained automatically by the IRAF software management utilities. +\fIUnder no circumstances should "bin" or "bin.generic" be modified or +deleted\fR. It is a very common error to manually delete the bin link and +manually set it to bin.irix or some other architecture. The bin.irix link +can be modified as desired but bin and bin.generic should be left alone. +.PP +Assume that the bin.irix directory has been created somewhere (e.g. in the +iraf/irafbin directory) and that the \f(CWib.irix.mip\fR distribution files +for the core IRAF system IRIX binaries have been downloaded from the +network archive. We can restore the IRIX binaries with the following +commands. +.XS +% cd $iraf/bin.irix +% cat /\fIpath\fP/ib.irix.mip/ib.* | uncompress | tar -xpf - +.XE +Similarly, to restore the NOAO package IRIX binaries: +.XS +% cd $iraf/noao/bin.irix +% cat /\fIpath\fP/nb.irix.mip/nb.* | uncompress | tar -xpf - +.XE +Note that when restoring the NOAO package binaries that the bin is yet +another link to the \f(CWirafbin\fR directory, and specifically to a +\f(CWnoao.bin.irix\fR directory the installer has created within +\f(CWirafbin\fR. +.PP +The procedure for restoring a BIN directory from a tape distribution is +similar to that described in \(sc2.2.2 for the core system. For example, +.XS +% cd $iraf/bin.irix +% mt -f /dev/nrtape rew; mt -f /dev/nrtape fsf 2 +% tar -o -xpbf 126 /dev/nrtape +.XE +would restore the core system bin.irix directory from a cartridge tape +containing an uncompressed \f(CWib.irix.mip\fR as file 2 on the tape. + +.NH 2 +Merge local revisions back into the new system +.PP +If this is a new IRAF installation this step can be skipped. Otherwise, +once the new system has been restored to disk any local revisions made to +the previous IRAF installation should be merged back into the new system. +See \(sc2.1.1 for a list of the files most likely to be affected. +When propagating revisions made to these files, be sure to not replace the +entire file with your saved version, as the version of the file in the new +release of IRAF will often contain important additions or changes which +must be preserved. It is best to merge your revisions into the version of +the file which comes with the new IRAF.\(dg +.FS +\(dgThe UNIX utility \fIdiff\fP is useful for comparing files to see +what has changed. +.FE +This task will be easier if the revisions have been localized as far as +possible, e.g., keep all \f(CWtermcap\fP additions together at the head of +the file, so that they may merely be transferred to the new file with the +editor. The task of propagating revisions will also be much easier if +detailed notes have been kept of all revisions made since the the last +release was installed. +.PP +Beginning with IRAF version 2.8, one should no longer install locally added +software in the core system LOCAL package. This significantly complicates +updates and is no longer necessary as, due to the layered software +enhancements introduced in V2.8 IRAF, it is now straightforward for each +site to maintain their own custom LOCAL package external to the core IRAF +system. The core system LOCAL is now only a \fItemplate-local\fR to be +copied and used as the starting point for a custom LOCAL layered package. +The layered software enhancements, and the procedure for building a custom +LOCAL, are discussed further in the \fIUNIX/IRAF Site Manager's Guide\fR. + +.NH 2 +Run the INSTALL Script +.PP +Once all of the IRAF files have been restored to disk the IRIX/IRAF +installation script must be run to complete the system installation. The +install script modifies the system as necessary to reflect the new root +directory and new default image storage and local bin directories, checks +the mode and ownership of a number of files, installs a small set of IRAF +commands in UNIX, and so on. +.LP +To make a trial run of the install script, enter the following commands: +.XS +% setenv iraf /\fIpath\fP/iraf/ +% cd $iraf/unix/hlib +% source irafuser.csh +% ./install -n +.XE +and answer the questions (don't forget the trailing `/' in the "setenv +iraf"). The "-n" argument tells install to go through the motions without +actually doing anything, so that one can see what will be done before +committing to it. +.PP +Installing IRAF requires a few changes to be made to system directories +outside the IRAF directory tree. Two fifo device entries are made in /dev. +A symbolic link "iraf.h" is created in /usr/include. A number of links (cl, +mkiraf, etc.) are made in /usr/local/bin or some similar directory which +most users can be expected to have in their search path. The tape +allocation task alloc.e is made suid root (there are no known security +loopholes, although we cannot make any guarantees). A symbolic link +imtoolrc is created in /usr/local/lib. +.PP +Following one or more trial "no execute" ("-n") runs to see what the install +script will do, the install script should be run without the "-n" to +complete the installation. This must be done by the superuser as superuser +permission is required to carry out the necessary additions to UNIX. +.PP +It is necessary to run the install script separately on each node from which +IRAF will be used. If a single version of IRAF is installed on a server and +NFS mounted on one or more clients, the install script must be run first on +the server and then on \fIeach\fR client (when installing on a client there +will be warnings about insufficient permission to make changes to files on +the NFS mounted partitions, which can be ignored). To install IRAF on a +diskless client it may be necessary to run the install script \fIon the +server\fR to do the install for the client, since the client's /usr/include +and /dev directories may only be writable by root on the server. On some +systems /usr is mounted read-only, and must be unmounted and remounted +read-write before doing the installation to allow an entry to be made in +/usr/include. Once the installation is complete the default mount access +mode may be restored. +.LP +The exchange with the install script will be along the lines of the +following. +.XS +% ./install -n +new iraf root directory (/iraf/iraf): +default root image storage directory (/d0/iraf): +local unix commands directory (/usr/local/bin): +install iraf for machine type irix +old iraf root = /usr/iraf, old imdir = /d0/iraf +installing iraf at /iraf/iraf, imdir=/d0/iraf, lbindir=/usr/local/bin +proceed with installation? (yes): +.XE +.LP +The "iraf root directory" is the value of $iraf (minus the trailing `/'in +this case). The "root image storage directory" is the default place to put +image data for users; the program may prompt with /tmp if it cannot find any +likely looking data storage areas on your system, but /tmp is not a good +place to put image data as the contents are deleted whenever the system +reboots. The value entered should be the path to a public iraf subdirectory +of a designated data or scratch disk on your system. Lastly, the "local +unix command directory" is where the UNIX callable IRAF startup commands +will be defined. This should be a UNIX directory which is in the default +path of anyone who might want to use IRAF; /usr/local/bin is the most common +value. +.PP +After answering with "yes" or hitting return in response to the "proceed with +installation" query, the script will issue a series of messages as it checks +the system and performs the installation, possibly answering additional +questions in the process. + +.NH +System Checkout +.PP +The basic IRAF system should be usable once the files have been restored to +disk, the binaries have been configured or generated, and the install script +has been run. To verify that the basic system comes up and runs +successfully, login as iraf and startup the CL (IRAF command language) from +the iraf account. You should be able to login as IRAF and type "cl" to +start IRAF, using the login files which come with the distributed system. +.XS +% login iraf +% cl +.XE +.LP +To more thoroughly test the installation it is a good idea to test IRAF from +a user account. To do this you login to a user account and run the +\fImkiraf\fR task to set up the IRAF login files. This will create or +initialize the user's \f(CWuparm\fP (user parameter) directory, and create a +new \f(CWlogin.cl\fP file. It may also be desirable to edit the +user's \f(CW.login\fP file to modify the way the environment variable +\f(CWIRAFARCH\fP is defined. This variable, required for software +development but optional for merely using IRAF, must be set to the name of +the desired machine architecture, in this case \fIirix\fR. +.XS +% mkiraf +Initialize uparm? (y|n): y +Terminal types: xterm,gterm,vt640,vt100,etc." +Enter terminal type: xterm +A new LOGIN.CL file has been created in the current directory. +You may wish to review and edit this file to change the defaults. +.XE +The \fIcl\fR command should now start up the CL, which will clear the screen +and print out a startup message. The standard test procedure included in +Volume 1A of the \fIIRAF User Handbook\fP should be run to verify the +installation. + +.bp +.SH +Appendix A. A Complete Example +.PP +Assume we are installing IRAF for the first time on an Indigo. The IRAF +directories will be located at /u3/iraf using a symbolic link /iraf to point +to this location. The BIN directories will be located in the directory +/iraf/irafbin. The local user commands will be placed in /usr/local/bin. +We will be installing from a network distribution with the distribution +files located in /scr0. +.PP +The first step is for the superuser to create an account for the fictitious +user `\f(CWiraf\fP', with home directory /iraf/iraf/local and shell +/bin/csh. The /u3/iraf directory is created owned by IRAF, and pointed to +by the link /iraf. We then login as IRAF (a warning message will be printed +since there is no login directory) and proceed as follows. +.XS +% whoami +iraf +% +% setenv iraf /iraf/iraf/ \fR# set root directory\fP +% mkdir /iraf/iraf +% +% cd $iraf \fR# unpack main IRAF distribution\fP +% cat /scr0/as.irix.gen/as.* | uncompress | tar -xpf - +% +% cd /iraf \fR# create BIN directories\fP +% mkdir irafbin +% mkdir irafbin/bin.irix +% mkdir irafbin/noao.bin.irix +% +% cd $iraf/bin.irix \fR# unpack core bin.irix\fP +% cat /scr0/ib.irix.mip/ib.* | uncompress | tar -xpf - +% +% cd $iraf/noao/bin.irix \fR# unpack NOAO bin.irix\fP +% cat /scr0/nb.irix.mip/nb.* | uncompress | tar -xpf - +% +% cd $iraf/unix/hlib \fR# run the INSTALL script\fP +% source irafuser.csh +% ./install -n +% su +# ./install +# exit +% +% cd +% source .login \fR# read new .login\fP +% rehash \fR# pick up new iraf commands\fP +% cl \fR# verify that the CL runs\fP +.XE +.LP +This will fully install IRAF on a server or a standalone system. If this +version of IRAF will be accessed via NFS by client nodes then the IRAF +install script must be run on each client node as well. Installing IRAF +does not allow one to access local tape drives, printers, and so on. +Refer to the \fIUNIX/IRAF Site Manager's Guide\fR for information on how +to configure IRAF for the local site. |
