Description
LCAS/LCMAPS update
Both LCAS and LCMAPS exist in library form only. They need an eco system in which they can live. This used to be the gridftp for example and nowaday glexec is used.
This also means that LCAS and LCMAPS are mostly shielded from the end user and that the interaction primarely goes through glexec.
From a site point of view there is the configuration of LCAS and LCMAPS and the end user should have no control over it. Other then that, there is not much more interaction required.
New SCAS service
The VOBOX is affected by some lcas/lcmaps new versions introduced by this patch.
New version of glite-info-provider-service
The new version contains the templates to publish the gatekeeper and the RTEpublisher services. Only the lcg CE is actually affected by the new change.
Upgrade of GlueCluster.template
The upgrade adds a new Glue attribute, GlueHostProcessorOtherDescription, needed by the lcg CE.
WMS to submit to ARC resources
The ability to submit jobs to ARC CEs has been included in the WMS. Any ARC CEs that wish to be used this way will need to install the gLite runtime environment.
The instructions for doing this can be found here. For more details please check the documentation in
ARC-WMS
New version of gLExec
The VOBOX is affected by some lcas/lcmaps new versions introduced by this patch.
Please also have a look at the list of known issues.
