Release history and use in Alma

This is the fifth ACS development to be used in cycle 8. Below is the list of addressed tickets.

If a successful Go/NoGo decision is made, Java 11 will be merged along this release (from branch feature/ICT-14271). We expect other subsystems to have upgraded to Java 11 by this point. In the meantime all the relevant changes are being patched in integration/java11 branch.

System Requirements

The officially supported OS is the 64 bit version of "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.6 (Maipo)". The binary distribution of ACS (tarball) is made for this OS. We also successfully use its clone "CentOS 7.6".

For all machines the expected kernel is 3.10

The expected and actual versions of compilers, ORBs and various RPMs can be found by running the command =acsConfigReport=, both for required RPMs and for software shipped together with ACS. To get a rough overview before installing ACS, here are the most basic ones:

gcc: 4.8.5 RHEL 7.6
java: openjdk-11.0.2
python: 2.7.16 and 3.7.4
ACE: 6.4.3
TAO: 2.4.3
mico: 2.3.13
JacORB: 3.9
omniorb: 4.2.3

There is a new requirement needed for python 3:

libffi
libffi-devel
