22. The EDG Testbed - n° 22 LCFG Installation Server setup: u Download rpms (perl + lcfg + apache) u Install rpms u Start http server (apache, …) u Create configuration files u Run mkxprof on them Client setup: u Download rpms (perl + lcfg) u Install rpms u Reboot (rdxprof will be started) Configuration management (server): u Update config files u Run mkxprof

23. The EDG Testbed - n° 23 EDG Machine Installation On the LCFG server: u Create directories for rpms u Download rpms from central edg repository u Create LCFG profile for each client machine: n Filename = hostname; includes machine type specific config file and site specific config file (needs to be customized!) n Example templates + rpm-lists are provided n Run mkxprof on each of these files On the LCFG clients: u Setup clients as describe before D O N E

24. The EDG Testbed - n° 24 Manual Setup (without LCFG) u Download rpms directly on machine (RPM-lists per machine type exist) u Install rpms u Configure individual services (see installation guide)

25. The EDG Testbed - n° 25 Issues when Adding new Sites to the Testbed u EDG is currently setting-up procedures explaining how to add new sites n Variations already tested with Taiwan and Romania n Step-by-step instructions produced which we expect to become simpler over time u Need to clarify the “minimum requirements” for a site to become a member of the testbed n A number of regular tasks have to be performed by the sites administrators n A maximum delay needs to be defined for responding to requests/problems if the testbed is to run efficiently u Sites from new countries have to identify/create a supporting CA n Since CAs need mutual trust this could lead to an explosion of inspection activities u Some tasks will fall on the people responsible for managing the VOs n HEP experiment secretariats already perform some level of authentication of their institutes and members. How an we get some leverage from this?
