Sites installation and setup tips

This page contains information related to SL5/gLite3.2 installation. Feedback is more than welcome, to keep this page updated and (hopefully) useful. The page was originally prepared for the eumed VO: however, most of its (and its links') content is generic, and may be used by other VOs as well. Again, your feedback is more than welcome.

Note that these pages are meant as a further assistance on top of the standard official gLite32 installation guides:

The Generic Installation and Configuration Guide for EMI 1 page
The Official Glite3.2 installation page
The INFNgrid gLite3.2 installation page
The gLite 3.2 CREAM-CE installation page

so you are encouraged to read official instructions first, and then find some other bit of information here.

In general, the content refers to the INFNgrid customization, although most of it may be applicable to plain EGEE gLite release as well.

General tips, planning your site installation
- Getting the Operating System
- Creating a local repository with mrepo
- Other things you need to plan: this section contains general tips dealing with how you are organizing your site (installed services, software area, home directories, and such)
- General tips on nodes setup

Tuning tips, final touches
- Possible service-specific issues during configuration

Instructions for sites willing to support GPU (graphical processor units) jobs

Note that the attached files or archives will allow you to fully configure the most important services at your site. As for the supported VirtualOrganizations, these include africacert , sagrid , vo.eu-decide.eu among others.
