There may be problems when you change the installed path /opt to /lcg with configuration pointing at the wrong place. I would suggest either symlinking /opt/globus to /lcg/globus or just mounting /opt/globus explicitly. The following final headache to do solve is having the clients find /etc/grid-security/certificates which you can do by setting the the appropriate env to the correct path and mouting into that path.
