Upgrade ISISICP

Wiki > Deployment > Deployment on an Instrument Control PC > Upgrade ISISICP

To upgrade on a computer when the DAE type is remaining the same

1. Check isisicp and isisdatasvr processes are not running. You cannot kill them if ISISDAE-IOC-01 is running so you need to stop this separately (and stop procserv restarting them) or run stop_ibex_server

2. Backup existing installation: copy the following to c:\data\old\isisdae_backup_YYY_MM_DD:

   • c:\LabVIEW Modules\dae
   • c:\data\recovery.run
   • c:\data\selog.* (.sq3 .sq3-shm and .sh3-wal files)

3. Confirm the type of DAE you have - look in c:\labview modules\dae\icp_config.xml, if DAEType is 1 or 2 you have a DAE2 (1 for neutron instruments, 2 for muon instruments), if it is 3 you have a DAE3. If you install the wrong type, it will just fail to start and complain in the ICP log file.

4. Go to \\isis\inst$\Kits$\CompGroup\ICP\ISISICP and into the directory for the DAE type you have

5. Go into the latest build number directory (also in LATEST_BUILD.txt) and double click on update_inst.cmd This can take a while (several minutes). You will get various messages. The following are OK:

   • If it can't replace the file isisicp_extMC.dll as it is open

6. As printed to screen at the end of script, open a command terminal as administrator (gamekeeper) and run

   cd "c:\labview modules\dae"
   register_programs.cmd
   

7. Now delete c:\data\selog.* (.sq3 .sq3-shm and .sh3-wal files)

This complete the ISISICP installation

At this point is it useful to install/update the JournalParser. This utility is not part of the ISISICP but parses the XML journal files generated by the ISISICP in c:\data at run end and updates entries in the MqSQL database used by the IBEX journal viewer. The journal parser executable program is ran by the isisicp at each run end via end_of_run.bat to add a new entry

1. To install/update journal parser, navigate to <public share>\journalparser_static_new
   • Either run install.bat to install it an migrate all old journal files (new ibex instrument)
   • or run install_no_migrate.bat to install it without copying old journal files (existing ibex instrument)

If this install fails for some reason, it will not affect an instrument operating - it will just mean that new run entries will not be visible in the ibex journal viewe (which looks at MySQL). It will not affect the actual creation of the XML reference files by the ISISICP, so a full re=import can be done at a later date when any issues are resolved.

changing DAE type (DAE2 -> DAE3)

1. If DAE3 is new to this computer, it may not have the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 redistributable" installed. Check in the installed program list, if it is missing run vc_redist.x64.exe in \\isis\inst$\Kits$\CompGroup\ICP\ISISICP\VS2015
2. install the new DAE software as above
3. edit icp_config.xml and change DAEType from 1 to 3
4. Before you run DAE3 for first time you will need to run set_dae3_arp.bat in labview modules\dae as an administrator
5. You will also need to add set_dae3_arp.bat to be run as administrator at system startup. To do this run the task scheduler as administrator and then import the DAE3_arp_boot_task.xml boot task file.
6. Also check firewall settings
