Hi, 

I have just updated the STAR EPICS VM Environment to a new version.  I have long debated to do any major work on the EPICS VM environment, but there seems to be some demand (as I get a request for login info every now and then).  Combined that and some other internal reasons, I decided that it is worth creating a new version.  So, here it is.  Anyway it is available at the following URL: 

http://physicsweb.creighton.edu/jiro/VirtualBox/ver6_index.html

It now uses Scientific Linux 6.6 (32-bit) with EPICS Base 3.14.12.5, Sequencer 2.2.2, Asyn 4.26, MEDM 3.1.9, EDM 1.12.99, caQtDM 3.9.4, Probe 1.1.8.0, VDCT 2.6.1274, Strip Tool 2.5.17.0, and StreamDevice 2.6.  

Most significant is an addition of caQtDM (as I wanted to look into using caQtDM).  Those of you who has been using the previous version (with Scientific Linux 5), the login information is the same on this version.  I have done some testing, and everything I have tried so far seems to work.  

I have also given a bit more disk space on the VM, so you can do more than what the old version used to do.  Of course, that means that the disk requirement on the host OS is bit higher now than before...  The old version is still available where it always have been.  So, feel free to use that one, if you must.  

Cheers, 

Jiro
