0.0.0.1 Configure the siteinfo.def file

Changed:

< Set your siteinfo.def file, which is the input file used by yaim. Documentation about yaim variables relevant for CREAM CE is available at https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/LCG/Site-info_configuration_variables#cream_CE

Set your siteinfo.def file, which is the input file used by yaim.

Variables which are required in cluster mode are described below.

When the CREAM CE is configured in cluster mode it will stop publishing information about clusters and subclusters. That information should be published by the glite-CLUSTER node type instead. A specific set of yaim variables has been defined for configuring the information which is still required by the CREAM CE in cluster mode. The names of these variables follow this syntax:

In general, variables based on hostnames, queues or VOViews containing '.' and '_' # should be transformed into '-'
<host-name>: identifier that corresponds to the CE hostname in lower case. Example: ctb-generic-1.cern.ch -> ctb_generic_1_cern_ch
<queue-name>: identifier that corresponds to the queue in upper case. Example: dteam -> DTEAM
<voview-name>: identifier that corresponds to the VOView id in upper case. '/' and '=' should also be transformed into '_'. Example: /dteam/Role=admin -> DTEAM_ROLE_ADMIN

These new variables are:

Variable Name	Description	Value type
`CREAM_CLUSTER_MODE`	Defines if the CE should be configured in cluster mode. Default value is no (no cluster mode). It must be `yes` for cluster mode	yes/no
`CE_HOST_<host-name>_CE_TYPE`	CE type: should be 'cream' for cream CE	string
`CE_HOST_<host-name>_QUEUES`	Space separated list of the queue names configured in the CE. The old variable name (the one used in no cluster mode) was: `QUEUES`	string
`CE_HOST_<host-name>_QUEUE_<queue-name>_CE_AccessControlBaseRule`	Space separated list of FQANS and/or VO names which are allowed to access the queues configured in the CE. The old variable name (the one used in no cluster mode) was: `_GROUP_ENABLE`	string
`CE_HOST_<host-name>_CE_InfoJobManager`	The name of the job manager used by the gatekeeper. The old variable name (the one used in no cluster mode) was: `JOB_MANAGER`. Please, define: pbs, lsf, sge or condor	string
`CE_HOST_<host-name>_CLUSTER_UniqueID`	UniqueID of the cluster the CE belongs to. This will be obsoleted by `QUEUE_<queue-name>_CLUSTER_UniqueID`	string
`QUEUE_<queue-name>_CLUSTER_UniqueID`	UniqueID of the cluster the CE belongs to. This will obsolete `CE_HOST_<host-name>_CLUSTER_UniqueID`	string
`CE_InfoApplicationDir`	Prefix of the experiment software directory in a site. The old variable name (the one used in no cluster mode) was: `VO_SW_DIR`. This parameter can be defined per CE, queue, site or voview.	string

Be sure that CREAMCE_CLUSTER_MODE is set to yes
