glite-VOBOX - Update to version 3.0.17-3

Date 16.04.07
Priority Normal

Description


This update fixes various bugs and releases the 3.0.1 version of glite-yaim and the 2.1.0 version of the lcg-info-dynamic-scheduler. For the full list of bugs, please see list below.
  • glite-yaim

    Release of major new version of yaim: glite-yaim-3.0.1.

    This version contains changes to the 3.0.0 series of yaim in the area of
    • YAIM's hierarchical configuration storage
    • DNS-like VO names
    • Changes in the groups.conf file
    • Special accounts management
    • Queue management
  • Please see the detailed information about the update and the changes for the configuration procedure here as well as the known issues.
  • lcg-info-dynamic-scheduler (version 2.1.0)

    lrms.py was changed in order to support caching of search results. Most of the time spent in lcg-info-dynamic-scheduler was due to queries like "find all jobs from group 'lhcb', in state 'waiting', for queue 'qlong'." Queries like this are now cached for future use, and can also be supplied *before* use, like they now are for lcg-info-dynamic-scheduler. That program now generates slices of the job list for the various combinations queue/group/state that will be needed while running the program.

    There were previously two different 'return a list of matching job' functions, with different interfaces. These now have a unified interface so that result caching can be supported. This does break backwards compatibility for lrms.py.
Please also have a look at the list of known issues for this metapackage.
