Maintenance

1. Cron Jobs

The portal source contains a crontab which should be installed and run under the hcoop user. This sends out monthly dues reminders and periodically generates semi-static pages.

2. Adding Machine

To support user requests for a machine, insert a WebNode into the database. The Debian version should be the release name (e.g. "squeeze").

INSERT INTO WebNode (id, name, descr, debian)
        VALUES ((select max(id)+1 from WebNode), $HOST, $DESCRIPTION, $DEBIANVERSION);

If the machine should show up in the portal for members to request permissions or packages on, add it to ActiveWebNodes.

insert into ActiveWebNode VALUES ((select id from WebNode where name = '$HOST'));
