Description
This update fixes various bugs. For the full list of bugs, please see list below.
edg-mkgridmap not robust against xml parsing errors.
- We now specify ISO-8859-1 as the character encoding, such that the XML parser will not bomb out on finding a character with the high bit set.
- Added "--cache" option for VDT, which causes the grid-mapfile to be treated as a cache, i.e. it is only rewritten when the contents change. The example edg-mkgridmap.conf file (overwritten by YAIM) has these changes.
- Removed references to lcg-voms.cern.ch - added new sources for "lhcbsgm" and "lhcbprd"
- Get "atlas" users from root group instead of "lcg1" subgroup.
R-GMA
- Gin, service-tool and standard-tables do not need to be restarted
- Any user code that uses the rgma python api needs to be restarted such as the job status raw and gridftp logfile parsers.
- All rgma services will need to be restarted to pick up the new file permissions (not world writable) - service-tool, flexible-archiver, publish-site, gin, glue-archiver(specific archiver configuration for glue)
