Frequently Asked Questions

What does no pid file mean when starting workflows?

Not sure right now, but just check publishing status at https://operations-api.access-ci.org/wh2/state/v1/status/ to see if the runs were published.

Also, check local process status with

bash ~/ipf/bin/wfm status

How do I upgrade to the latest version?

  1. Re-run the installer 
    • bash ~/install_ipf.sh

I messed up the install. Can I start over from scratch?

Yes!

  1. Stop any running workflows 
    • bash ~/ipf/bin/wfm stop
  2. Make backups of any config files 
    • bash ~/ipf/bin/save_configs.sh
  3. Remove the install directory and installer 
    • rm -rf ~/ipf install_ipf.sh
  4. Follow through the QUICKSTART guide again starting from the top

Can I configure multiple workflows of the same type?

Yes! The configure_extmodules script will look for config files matching the naming convention configure_extmodules*.conf. You can create multiple config files and a workflow definition will be created for each one. Just make sure that RESOURCE_NAME is unique in each config file.

How can I backup my workflow configs?

  1. Backup workflow configs 
    • bash ~/ipf/bin/save_configs.sh

This will do 2 things:

  • make backup copies in ~/.config/ipf/
  • create symlinks to the backup copies in the ipf install dir. On a re-install, the IPF installer will look for any backed up config files and re-make the symlnks.
