1. The SILECS developemt environment is located on the asl-cluster. In order to work there you will need to get an user-account there.
  2. If this is the first time you use FESA, you should start with this HandsOn in order to get used to FESA before using SILECS !
  3. Setup path for the 'silecs' script. Put the following into your ~/.profile (Create it, if it does not exist .. that's the file which will be sourced on graphical login)
    SILECS_ENVIRONMENT=/common/usr/cscofe/silecs/latest/silecs_environment
    if test -f $SILECS_ENVIRONMENT; then
     source $SILECS_ENVIRONMENT
    fi
    'latest' is a moving target. You can as well use a concrete version if preferred. E.g. '2', '2.4' or '2.4.0'
  4. re-load the file to make use of the changes:
    source ~/.profile
  5. Check if the silecs tools can be used now
    silecs -h
  6. Optionally install the SILECS Eclipse plugin
    1. In Eclipse, go to help --> Install new Software
    2. Enter the following site-location: file:/common/usr/cscofe/silecs/silecs-eclipse-plugin-gsi-update-site
    3. Pick the most recent version of silecs-eclipse-plugin-gsi-feature (Possibly you need to uncheck 'group items by category')
    4. Press next / accept / finish and restart eclipse
    5. If you have trouble and an older version of the silecs-eclipse-plugin is already installed, try to uninstall this older version first help --> install new software --> already installed --> silecs eclipse plugin feature --> uninstall
