gLite 3.1

glite-WN - Update to version 3.1.11-0


Date 16.12.2008
Priority Normal

Description



Major features in glite-data-hydra-service v1.3.0-1 and
glite-data-hydra-cli v3.1.0-1:

   o split-key support using Shamir's Secret Sharing Scheme
   o using GFAL for I/O (replacing gLite I/O)

Known bugs:
   o glite-eds-put doesn't work as documented. It cannot use lfc's GUID:s, so "-i keyname" must be specified on the command line

lcg-vomscerts-5.2.0:
- renamed all certificates with ".pem" suffixes because of bug 43395
- removed expired certificate of voms.cern.ch

This is a simple fix for the library moving problem.

If the service is working, this change has no effect. When the service is next time reconfigured or if there is a clean install this change has an effect and will use the algorithm described in the original submission comment.

It is recommended to run the config script again to get the additional link to the /usr/share/java/bcprov.jar even though it doesn't exist to prepare for the eventual update to bouncycastle 1.41.

It is recommended to run the config script again to get the additional link to the /usr/share/java/bcprov.jar even though it doesn't exist to prepare for the eventual update to bouncycastle 1.41. That's why it's better to reconfigure the services that run on tomcat.

But the WN doesn't have services running on tomcat, thus this is just a synchronization update to be in sync with other components
