gLite 3.0

glite-VOBOX - Update to version 3.0.28-0

Date 20.08.07
Priority Normal

Description


This update fixes various bugs. For the full list of bugs, please see list below.
YAIM

This release contains a new version of YAIM. YAIM 3.1.1 will configure gLite 3.0 and gLite 3.1 services and clients. The main feature of the new YAIM is its modularity. There will be a yaim core module, a yaim client module and different yaim modules for each gLite service. In the first release not all the services have been splitted in a new module and therefore they are part of yaim core. The idea for upcoming releases is to have a full modular version.

The first YAIM 3.1.1 release is a merge of yaim 3.0.1-22 and yaim 3.1.0 (for UI and WN). The new yaim will allow to configure all gLite 3.0 and gLite 3.1 services and clients.

If you have not already performed a manual action in order to fix bug #27539, then you to do need a re-configuration and restart of the node.
