Notes about services from IGI middleware, based on EMI/UMD

These notes are provided by site admins on a best effort base as a contribution to the IGI communities and MUST not be considered as a subsitute of the Official IGI documentation. This document is addressed to site administrators responsible for middleware installation and configuration.

How to join, enable and configure igi.italiangrid.it VO

How to enable and support the VO igi.italiangrid.it at your site

site-info.def

Add igi.italiangrid.it to VOS variable in your site-info.def. For example:

VOS="igi.italiangrid.it comput-er.it dteam glast.org infngrid ops gridit enmr.eu"

Add igi.italiangrid.it to the related queue settings inside the GROUP_ENABLE variable in your site-info.def. For example (we suppose to use ''prod'' queue):

PROD_GROUP_ENABLE="comput-er.it gridit igi.italiangrid.it

Create vo.d/igi.italiangrid.it file inside your site configuration directory.

$ cat <confdir>/vo.d/igi.italiangrid.it
SW_DIR=$VO_SW_DIR/igi
DEFAULT_SE=$SE_HOST
STORAGE_DIR=$CLASSIC_STORAGE_DIR/igi
VOMS_SERVERS="'vomss://vomsmania.cnaf.infn.it:8443/voms/igi.italiangrid.it?/igi.italiangrid.it'"
VOMSES="'igi.italiangrid.it vomsmania.cnaf.infn.it 15003 /C=IT/O=INFN/OU=Host/L=CNAF/CN=vomsmania.cnaf.infn.it igi.italiangrid.it'"
VOMS_CA_DN="'/C=IT/O=INFN/CN=INFN CA'"

users.conf

Add to your users.conf the users for the igi.italiangrid.it fitting your site's policy in users management (range of uid and gid). To find your users.conf:

# grep USERS_CONF site-info.def
site-info.def:USERS_CONF=/root/igi-siteinfo/ig-users.conf

As example, here a list of pool account:

groups.conf

Add to groups.conf the VOMS FQANs for the igi.italiangrid.it VO. To find your groups.conf:

# grep GROUPS_CONF site-info.def
site-info.def:USERS_CONF=/root/igi-siteinfo/ig-groups.conf

# grep italiangrid /root/igi-siteinfo/ig-groups.conf

Configure your nodetypes

In order to enable the newly added "<voname>'' VO on your site you have to run for each nodetype the function you find in the table below. Naturally you can also complete reconfigure your nodetypes but this is a more expensive procedure.

For each nodetype you have to use the following command, properly replacing the profile and function's names:

/opt/glite/yaim/bin/yaim -r -s <confdir>/<your-site-info.def> -n <profile> -f <function>

Profiles	Function
BDII Site	''config_newvo_bdii_site''
BDII Top	''config_newvo_bdii_top''
