Glue Usage within EGEE

The information in the EGEE information systems conforms to a schema called the GLUE schema. The GLUE schema started as collaboration effort between European and US grid projects to facilitate interoperation between them. The activity has now been moved to the Open Grid Forum (OGF). A full description of the schema can be found in the specification document and this page describes the usage of the Glue Schema within EGEE. The current version used is version 1.3 and the definitive schema definition can be found here. In addition there is a section in the glite user guide describing the use of the Glue Schema with respect to matchmaking. This guide explains any further restrictions or interpretations of the Glue Schema which are not described in the specification.

Notes

Unique Identifiers
The only semantics that should be applied to UniqueIDs is that they are globally unique. Even if another value has been used, no other semantics should be assumed.
Local Identifiers
The only semantics that should be applied to LocalIDs is that they are unique within the element. Even if another value has been used, no other semantics should be assumed.
OS Naming
A detailed description of OS naming can be found ... Please contact operational-documentation@mailmanNOSPAMPLEASE.egi.eu
Service Types
An enumeration of Service Types can be found here.
Authorization Rules
A description of the syntax for use with the Access Control Base Rules can be found here.

LFC Service

The LFC requires certain parameters to be set in the Key Value pairs for the Service
