Support for scratch space for pool accounts
If you want to support scratch space for pool accounts via EDG_WL_SCRATCH you need to
- set a valid GLITE_LOCAL_CUSTOMIZATION_DIR in your environment on the worker node and point it to a folder
- inside this folder, you need to create a cp_1.sh script (the name is fixed) where you put 'cd $EDG_WL_SCRATCH' inside.
Please also have a look at the list of known issues.
