[DQMGUI] Adapt for new Point 5 machines #1298

Closed nothingface0 closed 8 months ago

nothingface0 commented 8 months ago

This PR aims to adapt the existing deployment configurations for DQMGUI for the needs of the updated deployment procedure on RHEL8 with Python 3.8, which should replace the existing one (which does not work for anything newer than CentOS7).

It has currently been tested on Point 5 machines and OpenStack VMs, but not on the CMSWEB vocms0731, vocms0738 or vocms0739 ones (which are currently running CentOS7 with Python 2), meaning that those changes might not be backwards-compatible with the existing Deploy script.

We suppose that the three vocms073X machines will be updated to a more modern OS version at some point, meaning that the currently used Deploy script will be deprecated, one way or another.

We are opening this PR in order to review and discuss the changes needed in the future.

This is part of our (DQM-DC) effort to move to RHEL8 (mentioned in https://github.com/dmwm/deployment/issues/1254).

@arooshap Is there any chance for this PR to be tested on vocms0731, just to see if those changes can work with the current deployment procedure?

@nothingface0 sure, I can create a deployment on Monday!

@nothingface0 could you please remove this as a draft, so that I can incorporate these changes?
