The following list shows the steps that are required to add a site to the Dissemination testbed (GriDis) 1) User certificates are issued by CNRS, thus the CA CNRS needs to be trusted: see: http://marianne.in2p3.fr/datagrid/ca/ca-table-ca.html which are the following 3 RPMs: [hst@lxshare0409 certificates]$ rpm -qa | grep ca | grep CNRS ca_CNRS-Projets-0.16-1 ca_CNRS-DataGrid-0.16-1 ca_CNRS-0.16-1 2) Add the tutorial users to the grid-mapfile. All the users are listed in the LDAP VO for tutor: ldap://marianne.in2p3.fr/ou=EDGtutorial,o=testbed,dc=eu-datagrid,dc=org In detail, you need to configure the grid-mapfile creation process as follows: /op/edg/etc/mkgridmap.conf needs to be extended by the following line: group ldap://marianne.in2p3.fr/ou=EDGtutorial,o=testbed,dc=eu-datagrid,dc=org .tutor 3) All machines (CEs, WNs, SEs) need to allow for the VO tutor and the grid-mapfiles need to updated with the tutorial users. Also, accounts for tutor need to be created (similar to other VOs e.g. tutor001, tutor002 etc.) 4) for data Management, the WNs need to be configured with the DM software for the VO tutor, in particular, the RC configuration file needs to point to the RC at NIKHEF which hosts the VO tutor: ldap://grid-vo.nikhef.nl:10789/lc=EDGtutorial WP1 Repcat, rc=EDGtutorialReplicaCatalog,dc=eu-datagrid,dc=org an example of a correct rc.conf is: RC_REP_CAT_MANAGER_DN=cn=Manager, rc=EDGtutorialReplicaCatalog,dc=eu-datagrid,dc=org RC_REP_CAT_MANAGER_PWD=EDGtutorial RC_REP_CAT_URL=ldap://grid-vo.nikhef.nl:10789/rc=EDGtutorialReplicaCatalog,dc=eu-datagrid,dc=org RC_LOGICAL_COLLECTION=ldap://grid-vo.nikhef.nl:10789/lc=EDGtutorial WP1 Repcat,rc=EDGtutorialReplicaCatalog,dc=eu-datagrid,dc=org RLS=none LRC=rls://ced-rc0.datagrid.cnr.it GDMP_STAGING=no GDMP_VO=tutor 5) on the SE, the Storage Directory for the VO tutor needs to be created. This can be done e.g. by running the configuration GDMP configuration for the VO tutor. NOTE: for the tutorial, GDMP is not used and thus it does not need to configured. Only the storage area needs to be correct: For example: /flatfiles/SE00/tutor ... needs exists (or a similar directory) ---> most of the configuration part can actually done with LCFG for the CE/WN and SE 6) You must run a site GIIS that will register with the GriDis top GIIS. To run a site GIIS one of your CE, modify the file /etc/globus2.conf and add the following entries: [mds/gris/registration/site] regname= reghn= [mds/giis/site] name= where is the full DNS name of your CE host and is just a string identifying your site. If you already have a site GIIS running on your CE, then all the above is already done. In order to have all GRISes at your site register with the site GIIS that you just setup, you have to add the following entry in the /etc/globus2.conf file of all SEs and CEs: [mds/gris/registration/site] regname= reghn= If you already have a site GIIS running on one CE, then all the above is already done. This site GIIS has to register with the GriDis TOP GIIS. To do so, the sites have to add the following entry in the /etc/globus2.conf file of the site GIIS machine: [mds/giis/site/registration/cedpro] name= regname=cedpro reghn=ced-ii0.datagrid.cnr.it where is exactly the same as before, a string identifying your site. Once all the above is done, you need to restart the MDS daemons on all CEs and SEs at your site. To do so, please run the following: /etc/rc.d/init.d/globus-mds restart Please, communicate to hep-project-grid-tutorial@cern.ch the name of your site GIIS. AIM: A site can either contribute with CE(s) and/or SEs. The aim is that the RB from GriDis can submit jobs to addition CEs and that our data management tools work for release 1.4.x. We can test that with: 1) dg-job-submit -r resource file.JDL (for the CE) 2) edg-replica-mananger-copyAndRegister (for the SE) 3) edg-replica-manager-deleteFile (for the SE) Once these commands work, we whould be fine. In EDG release 2.0 we use new replica manager client tools that can be used on the same SE configuration.
