APEL (affecting monbox and utils packages for various batch systems) with several bug fixes

  • APEL will now read the CPUScalingReferenceSI00 value from the site GIIS. If this value is not available, APEL will read GlueHostbenchmarkSI00.
  • SGE log files with format accounting-YYYYMMDD and accounting-YYYYMMDD.gz are now parsed.
  • Entries in the SGE accounting log file with queue name containing a dot are now read by the APEL parser.
  • Out of memory error in parser (for grid-jobmap files) fixed.
  • Problems parsing different versions of LSF log files fixed. Also fixed parsing of parallel jobs in LSF.
  • Removed reference to IPv6 non compliant address in database script.
  • APEL publisher can now use external public keys (from a file) to encrypt UserDNs. The location of the public key file can be set up in the publisher configuration file (/opt/glite/etc/glite-apel-publisher/publisher-config-yaim.conf) <JoinProcessor publishGlobalUserName="yes" publicKeyLocation="/encryption/key/public.der">

Note that the new version of APEL will read the CPU power (specint rating) from the GlueCECapability CPUScalingReferenceSI00 attribute if it is published, so please check that the value is correct (the same as the GlueHostBenchmarkSI00 attribute) and that your APEL accounting records look OK after the upgrade.

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