Ruth drafted the above instructions based on instructions in the DME user guide in GitHub. Zhengwu later suggested following the Getting Started guide in GitHub instead.

Notes on the instructions in the above readme: 

...

  • Save the hpcdme.properties file (the copy of hpcdme.properties-

...

  • sample) to the same folder. 
  • No need to edit the server lines. Just Uncomment the lines for the server: either Production or UAT.
  • Define the environment variable HPC_DM_UTILS as a system environment variable if possible. Otherwise, define it as a user environment variable.  
  • The sed command (for Windows) seems to change the line endings in the functions file.
  • The export command seems to be preparation for the source command. 
  • The source command seems to run the functions file.
  • The functions file has comments explaining each command it contains:
    • An export command that adds the utilities (the scripts folder) to the PATH environment variable.
    • Two sed commands (for Windows) that change the line endings in each file in the scripts folder and the line endings in the hpcdme.properties-sample file.

Questions:

  • Why not change line endings in the hpcdme.properties file, too?
  • Should these instructions be moved from the readme to this wiki?
