OSG Corner

Here we will summarize the work done with OSG for packaging. Our contact persons are Carl Edquist and Brian Bockelman.

• OSG packaging changes:

  • PanDA common: https://github.com/PanDAWMS/panda-common/compare/master...edquist:master

• OSG Koji repository:
  • http://koji-hub.batlab.org/koji/builds?tagID=260
  • https://koji-hub.batlab.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=5469
  • http://koji-hub.batlab.org/mnt/koji/packages/osg-panda-repo/0.1/1.osg32.el6/noarch/osg-panda-repo-0.1-1.osg32.el6.noarch.rpm

• Installing from OSG repo

rpm -U http://koji-hub.batlab.org/mnt/koji/packages/osg-panda-repo/0.1/1.osg32.el6/noarch/osg-panda-repo-0.1-1.osg32.el6.noarch.
yum install panda-server-mysqloraclemerge <https://koji-hub.batlab.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=5693>

• Biulding the rpm yourself

%build
python setup.py build
%install
python setup.py install -O1 --root=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT --record=INSTALLED_FILES

Open questions

For Tadashi

• How to automate the .gacl file. Is it used? Can I simply put the default .gacl file into github
• tmpwatch watches /tmp/atlpan/tmp*. Who puts files here?
• CopyROOT uses /data/atlpan/srv/var/appdir. Could it be moved to /var/appdir/
• WrappedCursor and the SLS script use /data/atlpan/oracle/panda/monitor to write temporary files. Can they use /var/log/panda/monitor for example?
• Does the init.d script need to be added to chkconfig or similar for automated starting of the PanDA server after a machine reboot? Who does this?
• Is the fastCGI config file in use? There are some non-migrated paths in it.
• Certificates for authentication to DDM message queue are under /data/atlpan

For Carl

• User needs to be configurable. ATLAS needs to keep using atlpan for the moment.
• When installing through setup.py the config files are overwritten. I've renamed them back to .rpmnew.
• Can he give me the exact steps how he builds an rpm from the tarball?

For Jarka

• Does puppet overwrite manually installed rpm's?
• We need to discuss the filesystem distribution:
