This page is a collection of !HowTo for testing and certification people 

---+ Prerequisities
Two things usually need to be checked (se also sysadmin guide for the complete list):
   * Command _hostname_ should return a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN). So check */etc/hosts*
   * Check that the fs support the extended attribute and the ACL. Example:
<verbatim>
[~]# vi /etc/fstab
  ...
  /dev/hda3     /storage ext3 defaults,acl,user_xattr 1 2
  ...
</verbatim>

---+ Workaround and Known issues 

---++ xml-common-apis
If at the end of the yaim configuration you see this error:
<verbatim>
Starting tomcat5: /usr/bin/rebuild-jar-repository: error: Could not find xml-commons-apis Java extension for this JVM
/usr/bin/rebuild-jar-repository: error: Some detected jars were not found for this jvm
</verbatim>
Install this rpm: *xml-commons-apis*

---+ Testing Tip&Tricks

---++ --novoms testsuite section
To use the *--novoms* parameter of the testsuite you need to modify before the _ /etc/storm/backend-server/namespace.xml_ file on the BE:
remove the _vo-name_ entry from the application rule: _testers.eu-emi.eu_no_voms-rule_
