Hi Andrea and Gonzalo.
The plan for the migration of Spanish and Italian sites to the new MDSes
should proceed like this:
1) today I publish the modification to the BDII configuration to the
Rollout list so that at least the main sites start using the new MDSes
(which, at this point, should still be empty to avoid confusion). I
tested the config at CERN and everything is working fine. I only need a
confirmation from Gonzalo about the MDS node name (see my previous e-mail)
2) at the same time, i.e. today, you two should add to the MDS node
configuration file the list of Site GIISes which will belong the the
lcgsouth region, i.e. all Spanish sites and CNAF, which is currently the
only Italian site. Details for this operation are below in this e-mail.
3) tomorrow I'll publish the procedure for existing sites to move from
the lcgeast zone to the lcgsouth one. At this point sites may proceed at
their leisure to modify their Site GIIS configurations, as this should
not have any real impact on the LCG grid.
Please let me know if you see any problem with this plan.
To authorize sites belonging to the lcgsouth region to connect to the
new Regional MDSes you should add the following lines to the node
configuration files for wn-02-37-a.cr.cnaf.infn.it and
grid-proxy.ifae.es (or grid-mds.ifae.es):
EXTRA(globuscfg.allowedRegs_topmds) wn-02-29-a.cr.cnaf.infn.it:2135
EXTRA(globuscfg.allowedRegs_topmds) grid-w1.ifae.es:2135
EXTRA(globuscfg.allowedRegs_topmds) loki01.ific.uv.es:2135
EXTRA(globuscfg.allowedRegs_topmds) lcg02.ciemat.es:2135
EXTRA(globuscfg.allowedRegs_topmds) lcg-ce.usc.cesga.es:2135
EXTRA(globuscfg.allowedRegs_topmds) grid003.ft.uam.es:2135
When new sites in Italy and Spain are ready to join LCG (this is
announced on the Rollout list), you will have to add corresponding
EXTRA() lines to the configuration file, publish the new profile and
restart the globus-mds service (this last step should be automatically
done by the globuscfg object but please check nonetheless).
Ciao
Emanuele
