## Installation ## 1. Place multihome in your path (i.e. ~/bin) 2. Depending on your shell, put the following at the top of its initialization file. CSH (/home/$USER/.cshrc): setenv PATH ${HOME}/bin:${PATH} set MULTIHOME=`which multihome` if ( -x $MULTIHOME ) then # Destroy environment env -i # Resassign HOME eval `$MULTIHOME` if ( "$HOME" != "$HOME_ORIG" ) then cd $HOME source ~/.cshrc endif endif BASH (/home/$USER/.bash_profile): export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH MULTIHOME=`which multihome` if [ -x $MULTIHOME ]; then HOME_ORIG=$HOME # Destroy environment env -i # Resassign HOME eval `$MULTIHOME` if [[ "$HOME" != "$HOME_ORIG" ]]; then cd $HOME source ~/.bash_profile fi fi ## Configuration ## 1. Create /home/$USER/.homerc file ### Options for .homerc ### 1. cluster_force=true|false Type: Boolean Default: false Description: Setting this "true" creates a stand-alone home directory for every machine under the "standard" cluster directory. Example: cluster_force=false 2. clusters=( host_pattern [host_pattern ... ] ) Type: Array Default: Empty Description: Hostname substrings that denote particular clusters Example: cluster=( ops dev test prod ) 3. transfer_env=( file [file ...] ) Type: Array Default: .*profile .*login .*cshrc* .bash* .ssh .Xauthority Description: Files and/or directories to be copied from /home/$USER into the new home structure.
