gLite 3.1

glite-FTS_oracle - Update to version 3.1.10-0


Date 27.03.2009
Priority Normal

Description

- Upgrade of BDII. The main change is that the starting cache size used for the Berkeley Database in the BDII has been reduced from 1 GB to 50 MB. This should significantly reduce the memory footprint and still provide the necessary performance.

- DB_CONFIG now has "set_lk_max_locks 10000" (10k) to fix GGUS ticket 43230 ("gLite 3.1u34: lcg-cp failing on a BDII error in a MPI job") - New version of VDT that introduces GridFTP2 support.

- FTS job submission sometimes ends up with an invalid delegated proxy certificate in the FTS service, thus transfers will fail. This update fixes the FTS web service's delegation code that the delegated proxy certificates should not be corrupted. The fix is transparent for the clients and there is no configuration change on the server side. One only needs to restart the FTS web service (Tomcat) after upgrading the glite-data-transfer-fts package.

- lcg-vomscerts-5.4.0 adds next cert for lcg-voms.cern.ch and removes old certs of cclcgvomsli01.in2p3.fr and vo.racf.bnl.govi.
