3.1.0 PPS Update 13

Release date: 11.01.2008

Comment [12.01.2008] Tarballs have been added.

Comment [17.01.2008] The patch #1595 (R3.1/SLC4/i386: 2GB file fix for DPM gridftp) has been added to the release. This has resulted into new metapackages for glite-SE_dpm_disk and _mysql. In addition, 64 bit repositories for dcache have been added to the release. The 64 bit versions of dcache can be installed using the yum groupinstall method.

Preface

• new metapackages for dCache
• globus update, which results most of the metapackages to be upgraded
• GFAL/lcg_util update

In addition, there is an update of the bdii configuration as well as new voms-admin-client tools, which have been added into the glite-UI and glite-VOBOX metapackages.

Mirroring

For mirroring it should be taken into consideration that the dCache packages are located in a separate generic-dcache repository and symbolic links have been created to point to this central location.

1) The repository to be mirrored:
http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/pps/3.1/generic-dcache/sl4/i386/

2) The symbolic links to be created:
glite-SE_dcache_admin_gdbm -> generic-dcache
glite-SE_dcache_admin_postgres -> generic-dcache
glite-SE_dcache_info -> generic-dcache
glite-SE_dcache_pool -> generic-dcache

3) The repository strings to be used in installation:
http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/pps/3.1/glite-SE_dcache_admin_gdbm/sl4/i386/
http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/pps/3.1/glite-SE_dcache_admin_postgres/sl4/i386/
http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/pps/3.1/glite-SE_dcache_info/sl4/i386/
http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/pps/3.1/glite-SE_dcache_pool/sl4/i386/

3b) The repository strings to be used in installation for the SLC4/64bit platform:
http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/pps/3.1/glite-SE_dcache_admin_gdbm/sl4/x86_64/
http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/pps/3.1/glite-SE_dcache_admin_postgres/sl4/x86_64/
