Deployment 2020-2.0 checklist

[mrakitin]

Previsit

• [x] Make sure that the current latest collection environments are pushed to all the bl machines
• [x] Make sure that the current latest analysis environments are pushed to all the bl machines
• [x] Skim the IPython startup files in profile_collection
  • Check if it's safe to start bsui remotely (does it touch any hardware?) - use git grep .put or git grep caput
• [x] Check for outstanding PRs and issues on beamline repos
• [x] Check if beamline specific packages pushed to the BL machines
• [ ] (Optional) Enable CI

Housekeeping

• [x] Add BL staff to the BL GitHub organization as owners
• [x] Work with BL staff to commit any un-committed changes to their profiles
• [x] Tag the profile as-found as 2019C3.x
• [x] Discuss with BL staff which conda envs they want to keep/delete and perform the cleanup
• [x] Check/update the beamline's inventory with the BL staff (in https://github.com/NSLS-II/playbooks/blob/master/production)

Test deployment

• [x] Run profile against new environment
  • BS_ENV=collection-2020-2.0rc7-1 bsui
• [x] Update the profile as needed to run:
  • [x] Replace .value -> .get() if it's in a Device, or with yield from bps.read() if in a plan
  • [x] history.sqlite issue - see https://blueskyproject.io/bluesky/metadata.html#persistence-between-sessions
  • [x] potential issue with images in databroker V2
• [x] Run acceptance tests (if any) and run a representative set of scans for the beamline
• [x] Tag the updated profile as 2020C2.0
• [x] Update BSUI via ansible to use the new environment (http://nsls-ii.github.io/deployment/upgrading-beamlines.html#change-bsui-s-default-environment)
