Date 24.10.07
Priority Normal

Description

YAIM

YAIM 4.0.0 is a release without any important functionality changes. It mainly fixes bugs found in YAIM 3.1.1. The most relevant changes are:
  • configuration of the new glite-info-generic rpm.
  • users.conf example files includes pool accounts for sgm and prd users.
  • removal of lcgenv.(c)sh file. Instead, the environment variables created there are now available in grid-env.(c)sh.
Please, check the YAIM 4 guide for more details:
https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/LCG/YaimGuide400

Advice: 
It is advised to verify the consistency between the accounts listed
in YAIM's users.conf, /etc/passwd and /etc/grid-security/gridmapdir.

Accounts that should no longer be used should only be removed when
the service is in scheduled downtime and activity has drained.

To clean up /etc/grid-security/gridmapdir the following procedure
should be applied:

1. cd /etc/grid-security/gridmapdir

2. For any unwanted account name file "abc123" run this command:

        ls -li abc123

3. If the link count is 1, the file can be removed.

4. If the link count is 2, note the inode number of the file and
   run this command:

        ls -li | awk '$1 == inode_number'

   For example:

        ls -li | awk '$1 == 2467912'

   That will report 2 files: the unwanted account name file and
   the file whose name contains '%' characters and represents
   the user mapped to the account.  Both must be removed.
lcg-vomscerts

There is a new version of lcg-vomscerts (4.6.0) that provides the host certificate of the US-ATLAS VOMS server (vo.racf.bnl.gov) and removes the old expired certificate (lcg-voms.cern.ch).
Other updates
  • Missing dependency on uberftp-client has been added.
  • Missing dependency on lcg-tags has been added.
