The Planetary Data System (PDS) Data Distribution System
(PDS-D) uses the
OODT Data Grid
Framework
's product servers to support search and
retrieval of planetary data. The Linux Product Server is for
discipline nodes running Linux using RPM package managers. It
supports real-time conversions of PDS data to
industry-standard formats, retrieval of raw PDS data, PDS
labels, and other information.
To install the Product Server for
Linux,
download
the compressed tar archive
, uncompress and extract it to
retrieve the RPM and the
README.txt
file.
Follow the instructions in
README.txt
. You
will need to have
Java 2
Software Development Kit 1.4.2 or later
on your system
as well.
Your system will also need to be accessible on the public
Internet, and any firewall protecing your system must allow
incoming TCP/IP traffic to port 7576 from
*.jpl.nasa.gov
. (The product server's traffic is
HTTP, and, if necessary, you can run the server on a
different port.)
