FTS Server Installation Guide: YAIM example

The following gives a exmaple of the YAIM varibales that need to be set to configure a few FTA agents and a single FTS web-service.

In the example, we assume that you have chosen to run two VO agents (for dteam and atlas) and two channel agents (CERN-CERN and CERN-BNL). We choose to run:

• the dteam VO agent and CERN-CERN channel agent together on the host fts001.test.ch
• the atlas VO agent and CERN-BNL channel agent together on host fts002.test.ch

The web-service will run on a different host that is referenced by the DNS alias fts-prod.test.ch.

YAIM file

All agent variables are prefixed with "FTA_". All web-service variables are prefixed with "FTS_".

###
### This section sets up what agents go where
###

# There are two machines for the agwnt
FTA_MACHINES="ONE TWO"

# Two agent daemons on the first host
FTA_AGENTS_ONE_HOSTNAME="fts001.test.ch"
FTA_AGENTS_ONE="DTEAM CERN-CERN"

# ..and two agent daemons on the other
FTA_AGENTS_TWO_HOSTNAME="fts002.test.ch"
FTA_AGENTS_TWO="ATLAS CERN-BNL"

# Specifiy what type each of the agents is
FTA_CERN_CERN="URLCOPY"
FTA_CERN_BNL="URLCOPY"
FTA_DTEAM="VOAGENT_PYTHON"
FTA_ATLAS="VOAGENT_PYTHON"


###
### This section sets up the global parameters for all the agents
###

# Specify the DB connection parameters (you get these from your DB admin)

FTA_GLOBAL_DB_PASSWORD=xxxxxxxx

# It is recommended to change the default logging level for all the agents (see bug 16521).
FTA_GLOBAL_LOG_PRIORITY=INFO 


###
### This section varies the default values for specific agent types
###

# For better debugging, it is recommended to up the default transfer logging level (see bug 16521).
FTA_TYPEDEFAULT_URLCOPY_GUC_LOGLEVEL=DEBUG

# The plugin properties for the default retry plugin must be specified (see bug 16520).
FTA_TYPEDEFAULT_VOAGENT_PYTHON_PYTHON_PYTHONPATH="${GLITE_LOCATION}/lib/python2.2/site-packages:${GLITE_LOCATION}/lib/python/glite/fts/strategies/"
FTA_TYPEDEFAULT_VOAGENT_PYTHON_ACTIONS_RETRYMODULE=smarter_retry
FTA_TYPEDEFAULT_VOAGENT_PYTHON_ACTIONS_RETRYPARAMS="MaxFailures = 3 ; HoldEnabled = false ; OverwriteFailedFiles = true ; OverwriteExistingFiles = false ; DefaultRetryDelay = 300 ; RetryDelayForTimeoutOnGet = 1800 ; RetryDelayForDestFileExists = 300 ;"


###
### It is not recommended to change any individual agent values until
### you have evaluated the behaviour of the running agents.
