  The project aimed to implement a beamline control and data collection system through a server virtualization system, and was applied to the 5C beamline of the 3rd generation beamline of Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL). The 5C beamline is currently under construction for the FBDD beamline with the goal of building a fully automated beamline. Therefore, the project was started to operate stably and efficiently various systems to be applied to the beamline. The control system was implemented using EPICS software tools and MxDC/MxLive software for data acquisition and storage. The control and data collection system of this beamline is integrated using XCP-ng[1] (XenServer Based), and it is in operation. With the integrated server virtualization system, network organization / simplification and data send/receive between systems are more stabilized. The overall size of the system has been significantly reduced, making maintenance easier.

  At least three different computers are used in the beamline of PAL, first for EPICS IOC, second for device control and data acquisition(DAQ), and third for analyzing data for users. In the meantime, stable beamline control was possible by maintaining the policy of separating applications listed above from the hardware layer. As data volumes grow and the resulting data throughput increases, demands for replacement of highly efficient computers has increased. Advances in virtualization technology and robust computer performance have enabled a policy shift from hardware-level isolation to software-level isolation without replacing all the computers. DAQ and analysis software using the Bluesky Data Collection Framework have been implemented on this virtualized OS. In this presentation, we introduce the DAQ system implemented by this virtualization method.
