E.3 Installation & Configuration
Vaisala recommends the use of TS recording in two configurations. The
simplest (but least flexible) configuration is where the RVP900 also serves
as the archive host.
The ideal configuration is to have a separate archive host with an increased
amount of disk space and peripherals (that is, tape drives). The two system
configuration should be used in a high bandwidth environment. If this is
not possible, the RVP900 can be equipped with a separate disk for archive
operations.
If a two system configuration is used, then the TS IMPORT and TS
EXPORT modules have to be turned on at boot time on both systems. The
UDP ports for the sending and receiving system also have to be configured.
E.3.1 Required Software
The TS archive software is part of the Vaisala’s RDA release, which is
installed by default on all RVP900s and RCP8s, but it is not installed on
IRIS systems.
E.3.2 Configuring UDP Ports
The UDP ports can be configured by editing the tsimport and tsexport
scripts found in /usr/sigmet/config_template/rc/d/. These files should be
copied to /etc/rc.d/init.d/. The tsimport and tsexport files must be edited if
you plan on using tsarchive with a separate archive host. The export port
on the sending system must match up to the import port on the receiving
system so that a connection can be made between the two ports.
Vaisala recommends the following ports:
NOTE
A separate partition should be created to prevent system crashes.
