Installation and Update

Installation

Recommended: Download and install the package using gsm. This is the simplest and the recommeded way.

1. Get and install gsm

   mkdir $HOME/install
   cd $HOME/install
   wget https://data.gempa.de/packages/Public/gsm/gempa-gsm.tar.gz
   tar xvf gempa-gsm.tar.gz
   rm gempa-gsm.tar.gz
   

2. Initial setup

   cd gsm
   ./gsm setup
   

   Follow the instructions.

3. Installation

   ./gsm update
   ./gsm install thor
   

Manual installation (not preferred): Download the package file and unpack it from the directory above the $SEISCOMP_ROOT directory:

cd $SEISCOMP_ROOT/..
tar xvf <package-file-name>

Both procedures will result in a complete installation. However, gsm remembers the installation. During updates with gsm only required files will be kept while manual installations will eventually result in an accumulation of old files, e.g. libraries.

Package update

For updating apply the same procedure as for installation. We recommend to use gsm for updating. Old files not required or provided with the new version will be removed. Additionally restart the modules after installation

gsm update
seiscomp stop autothor
gsm install thor
seiscomp start autothor

Note

• When unpacking using tar, any updated module must be stopped before unpacking.

• Stopping and starting of autothor is optional.

• During updates all files provided with the package are overwritten including default configurations. User-defined configurations will not be changed. In order to keep changes of files also provided by the installation package, give different names to the changed files.
