1. Preliminary Note

It is assumed that you start from an archived TSF module, e.g. emotsf.
If you need to make modifications to the ISF or some of the TSFs, follow the instructions in Section 2, then install as in Section 3.
To generate an IP from an existing module with no modification, go directly to Section 3.
Be sure to notify the configCtrl officer (P.LeSaux) of the changes.As a reminder, the list of authorized filters, grisms, etc is located in the Instrument Signature File, config/default.isf
Make sure that the IP file created has the exact format described below. If the ohsls version is not in the name then the execution times will not be calculated properly in p2pp and will not be displayed in ot.

2. Modification of the Instrument package

On the instrument workstation login as <insmgr>@w<instrument> (eg. susimgr@wsusi), download the relevant version of the CMM module (a list is given in appendix) and the latest version of the ohsls module (which, amongst other things, provides the execution time calculations) e.g.
cd ~/SOURCES cmmCopy -l <UserName> ohsls cd ohsls/src make clean all man install cd ~/CURRENTLY_MOD cmmModify -l <UserName> <module>

Make the required modifications to the files.
As for any module, update all the headers (add user, date and modif) of all the files that are modified, plus the ChangeLog file.
Create the tsf files and Instrument Package:
cd ~/CURRENTLY_MOD/<Modlue>/src make clean all man
The IP file is created in the <Module>/config/ directory with the format <INST>-<TSFVersion>.<OHSLSVersion>-<YYYYMMDD>.zip, e.g. CES3.6-203.07-20041202.zip for the version 2.03 of the CES ceotpl module and version 0.7 of the ohsls module.
Transfer the IP zip file to the P2PP instrument directory of a machine with P2PP installed, unzip it, and check that the modified files load properly in P2PP using the [File]>[Engineering] menu.
Check for consistency and fix errors as required:
cd ~/CURRENTLY_MOD cmmCheckForArchive -l <UserName> <module>
Archive the module
cd ~/CURRENTLY_MOD cmmArchive -l <UserName> <module>

3. Offline creation of the instrument package

On the instrument workstation login as <insmgr>@w<instrument> (eg. susimgr@wsusi), download the relevant version of the CMM module (a list is given in appendix) and (if not already done in section 2 above) the latest version of the ohsls module (which, amongst other things, provides the execution time calculations) e.g.
cd ~/SOURCES cmmCopy -l <UserName> ohsls cd ohsls/src make clean all man install cd../.. cmmCopy -l <UserName> <module> cd <Modlue>/src make clean all man

4. Online Installation the Instrument Package at telescope

On the Instrument Workstation:
- Login on <insmgr>@w<instrument> (eg. susimgr@wsusi)

After unpacking the ZIP file on the DHS, start p2pp under the instmgr account with any program ID/pwd.Otherwise some directories/permissions will not be created and the p2pp under visitor account would later fail.

5. Publish new IP

make the IP available to ESO by putting it, together with the CHANGELOG file, in /sci/facilities/lasilla/sciops/team_only/ip/<Period> Use (for example) scp:
- scp <INST>-<TSFVersion>.<OHSLSVersion>-<YYYYMMDD>.zip lssciops@eso.org:sciweb/lasilla/sciops/team_only/ip/<Period>
- scp <INST>-CHANGELOG-<YYYYMMDD>.txt lssciops@eso.org:sciweb/lasilla/sciops/team_only/ip/<Period>
notify ls-sciops@eso.org, lsarchiv@eso.org, jpritcha@eso.org, clidman@eso.org, fprimas@eso.org, smarteau@eso.org and usd-info@eso.orgthat the new IP (give version nr) is available on the web and officially released for general users.
For WFI and FEROS start of new period release: notify clidman@eso.org where to find the new packages. He will place them in http://www.eso.org/paranal/insnews/internal/ip.html Then, once installed at the ins and oh/dhs machines notify lsarchiv@eso.org, and smarteau@eso.org with cc: ls-sciops@eso.org

6. Install the IP on offline systems

This will be taken care of by LS-Archive once the above notifcation is made.

Appendix: list of TSF modules

EMMI: emotsf
SuSI2: suotsf
SofI: sootsf somtsf ( instead of previous sotpl )
TIMMI: tiotsf
HARPS: haotsf
CES: cesosf
EFOSC2: efiotm (Because very old reason *.*sf files are included in the observation templates module, but this situation will be normalized with the new BOSS/ICB EFOSC2 P76 software version).
FEROS: feotsf
