Subj: Re: rdist
Well, mostly we don't use an rdist file for the trees, we use a script
that Josh wrote that looks up tree locations in a lookuptable which
also includes arguments that get passed about how rdist should behave
(see /usr/sde/disks/ode_backingtrees) and then assembles rdist commands
on the fly.
However, the shadow build still uses an rdist file, Here's a sample:
HOSTS = (malcolm devbld@malcolm )
FILES = (/share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6)
${FILES} -> ${HOSTS}
install -R /share/malcolm/build/u1/agos.shadow ;
except /share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6/rc_files ;
except /share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6/Logs ;
except /share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6/output ;
except /share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6/tmp ;
except /share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/acc ;
except /share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6/tools/mips_ULTRIX ;
except /share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6/obj ;
except /share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6/kits ;
except /share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6/export/alpha ;
except /share/firstout/build/agosminor.dsk4/agosminor.pre.bl6/sup ;
We also use rdist to update devbld's environment from the tools area submit tree
to lastin, and from there to all of the build machines. Here's a sample of that:
HOSTS = (
# bwisper
bbigbld
bbuffer
bcache
blastout
boskits
bpointer
bqueue
btrap
bstack
bpage
bfetch
bxor
bfirstout
bfirstin
)
TESTHOSTS = (
cardinal
malcolm
arrow
longbow
)
FILES = (
.aliases
.cshrc
.forward
.kshrc
.mwmrc
.profile
.rhosts
.sandboxrc
.xsession
.Xresources
Mwm
alpha
bin
build
consistency
envir
)
DEST = /usr/build/devbld
# production hosts - all exactly in sync
#
${FILES} -> ${HOSTS}
install -w -R ${DEST} ;
# notify [email protected] ;
# use "younger" switch and don't use "Remove" switch for test hosts,
# so that they can have experimental code.
#
${FILES} -> ${TESTHOSTS}
install -y -w ${DEST} ;
notify [email protected],[email protected] ;
Hope this helps.

| hi folks,
|
| I am working on putting together the latest release of rdist (6.1) on OSF/1.
| I believe our source pools are maintained using rdist. What I need is a
| sample distfile being used, so I can use it for my test environment.
|
| If you know someone I should contact, please let me know. Thanks.
