WN Installation and Configuration - WORK IN PROGRESS

Have a look to the section Repository Settings and ensure that you have the common repo files.
Before starting the installation procedure remember to clean all yum cache and headers:

yum clean all

WN Prerequisites

Batch System:

• If you will use LSF (licences are needed) - The server/client installation must be done manually. Have a look to Platform LSF documentation,
• TORQUE server/client installation is done through the use of the -torque- metapackages, see bellow

CAs installation:

• Install CAs on ALL profiles:

yum install ca-policy-egi-core

Service installation

Install the WN metapackages, containing all packages needed. Have a look to the WN documentation before starting to install: WN Guides. IGI provides 5 custom profiles (metapackages) one for each specific batch system used in your cluster. Please use one of theese:

• igi-wn_torque
• igi-wn_torque_noafs
• igi-wn_lsf
• igi-wn_lsf_noafs
• igi-wn (useful for SGE or other Batch System)

yum install <metapackage>

IMPORTANT NOTE: All the metapackages name are case sensitive, you have to write it as described above.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR TORQUE: After the Torque installation you should have the version 2.5.7-7. Please remember to copy the munge key from the batch master to the WN just installed

scp <batch master host>:/etc/munge/munge.key /etc/munge

Service Configuration

YAIM Verification

• Before starting the configuration PLEASE TEST that you have defined all the mandatory variables for all the WN profiles (WN_torque, WN_torque_noafs, WN_LSF, WN_LSF_noafs)

For Torque:

 /opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -v -s <site-info.def> -n  WN_torque 

 /glite/yaim/bin/yaim -v -s <site-info.def> -n  WN_torque_noafs 

For LSF:

 /opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -v -s <site-info.def> -n  WN_LSF

 /opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -v -s <site-info.def> -n  WN_LSF_noafs

For Other Batch System:

 /opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -v -s <site-info.def> -n  WN

You can find in this documentation: YAIM WN Variables all mandatory variables.

If no errors are reported with the verification you can proceed to the configuration, otherwise correct them before continuing with the configuration.

YAIM Configuration

Please use the debug flag ( "-d 6") to configure the services in order to have detailed information. For your convenience yo can save all the configuration information in a log file you can look at any time, separated from the yaimlog default one.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
All the profiles name are case sensitive, you have to write it as described above.

For Torque:

 /opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -c -d 6 -s  <site-info.def>  -n  WN_torque 2>&1 | tee /root/conf_WN_torque.`hostname -s`.`date`.log

 /opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -c -d 6 -s  <site-info.def>  -n  WN_torque_noafs 2>&1 | tee /root/conf_WN_torque_noafs.`hostname -s`.`date`.log

For LSF:

 /opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -c -d 6 -s  <site-info.def>  -n  WN_LSF 2>&1 | tee /root/conf_WN_LSF`.hostname -s`.`date`.log

 /opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -c -d 6 -s  <site-info.def>  -n  WN_LSF_noafs 2>&1 | tee /root/conf_WN_LSF_noafs.`hostname -s`.`date`.log

For Other Batch System:

 /opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -c -d 6 -s  <site-info.def>  -n  WN 2>&1 | tee /root/conf_WN.`hostname -s`.`date`.log
