ORCA migration to castor 2

In the following table:

  • column 1 : libshift version and location of libshift.so at a site
  • column 2 : executable linked at CERN before migration (e.g. standard executables in existing releases)
  • column 3 : executable linked at CERN after migration or new release

libshift.so existing executable newly linked executable
site uses link to / copy of /afs/cern.ch/cms/external
none no(1) no(2)
v1 in /usr/lib yes no(3)
v2 in /usr/lib yes yes
v1 somewhere else no(4) no(5)
v2 somewhere else no(6) no(7)
otherwise
v1 in /usr/lib yes no(8)
v2 in /usr/lib yes yes
v1 somewhere else in SCRAM library path yes no(9)
v2 somewhere else in SCRAM library path yes yes

  • (1)-(4) could be solved by providing libshift.so.2* (and link) in cms/external. Drawback: would have precedence over any site-specific library - could break if libshift.so.2 shouldn't be used on a site?
(4)
could be solved by removing the link in /afs/cern.ch/cms/external
