gLite User Interface
This release contains the gLite User Interface module v. 1.3.5. The following sections provide additional information about the release content, the module dependencies, the know bugs and issues and a list of bugs closed since the previous release. The gLite User Interface is a suite of several gLite clients and APIs. Please refer to the individual gLite clients release notes for additional information. For information about installing and using the gLite User Interface, please refer to the gLite Installation and User Guides.
The following new parameters have been added to the glite-ui.cfg.xml file:
|
Parameter name |
Default value |
Description |
|
lfc.server |
changeme |
LFC server. [Example: lxb0755.cern.ch] [Type: string] |
|
wmproxy.ShallowRetryCount |
10 |
Maximum number of shallow job re-submissions to be done in case of job failure. If this parameter is empty or missing a default value of 10 is used. [Example: 10][Type: integer] |
|
wmproxy.AllowZippedISB |
true |
When set to true makes the WMS client commands archive and compress all job input sandbox files into a single tar, gzipped file that is then transferred to the WMS. If this parameter is empty or missing a default value is true. [Example: true][Type: boolean] |
|
wmproxy.PerusalFileEnable |
true |
When set to true enables the job file perusal support in the WMS. If this parameter is empty or missing a default value is true. [Example: true][Type: boolean] |
The following parameters have been changed in the glite-io-client.cfg.xml file:
|
Parameter name |
Old value |
New value |
Description |
|
py-ui.requirements |
changeme |
other.GlueCEStateStatus == 'Production' |
The value now uses by default the standard conventions for double and single quotes, so that it can be set as:
value=“other.GlueCEStateStatus == 'Production'”
instead of
value='other.GlueCEStateStatus == “Production” '
However, both formats are accepted and produce the same entry in the internal ui config file.
The parameter has been moved to the Advanced Parameters section. |
|
ui.ClientList |
<value>glite-file-transfer-service-client</value> <value>glite-io-client</value> <value>glite-rgma-client</value>
|
<value>glite-file-transfer-service-client</value> <value>glite-io-client</value> <value>glite-rgma-client</value> <value>glite-lfc-client</value> |
Added the lfc-client module to the list of configurable clients |
The Service Discovery parameters for file-based discovery have been removed from the configuration file. File-based discovery is only supported for test or debugging. The normal mode of operation is based on R-GMA or BD-II discovery.
The gLite I/O UI module includes the following sub-modules:
- gLite Security Utilities
- gLite Service Discovery
- gLite R-GMA Client
- gLite DGAS Client
- gLite File Transfer Service Client
- gLite I/O Client
- WMProxy Client, VOMS clients and APIs
- LFC Client
The sub-modules are automatically installed with the UI module. For more information about these sub-modules please refer to the specific release notes and installation instructions.
