What have I to do to move the site-bdii on another machine?
be sure the new site-bdii is working and publishing all the necessary site information
put the old site-bdii in scheduled downtime on GOC-DB for a couple of hours
register the new service on GOC-DB by adding a new Service Endpoint:
select "Site-BDII" in "Service Type" field
fill in at least the hostname
select "Y" for production and monitoring, "N" for beta service field
properly modify the "Giis Url" with the new SITE-BDII ldap url
mark the old site-bdii as not production and turn off its monitoring
top-BDIIs updates their sites-list every hour so the new site-bdii should be published in less than an hour; instead nagios updates the monitored host every 3 hours
when the new site-bdii is appeared on nagios and the old one is disappeared, turn off the old site-bdii and remove it from GOC-DB
What if I have just to turn off a site-bdii cohosted with an lcg-CE:
