Hi,

We used to have shared NFS homedirectories for poolaccounts on our WNs
and CEs, but due to a change in fileserver setup this may not be a
feasible setup anymore for us for at least 1 of our CEs.

I have setup PBS correctly to use SCP to copy job input and output,
which works perfectly for pure PBS jobs.

However, when I try to submit a (grid) SAM job for example, amongst
other things I see that the jobs want to enter a GRAM directory on the
WN homedirectory, that isn't there.

/var/spool/torque/mom_priv/jobs/1982067.bat.SC: line 41: cd:
/home/opssgm04//gram_scratch_oj4XN4bt05: No such file or directory
/var/spool/torque/mom_priv/jobs/1982067.bat.SC: line 42:
/home/opssgm04/.globus/.gass_cache/local/md5/86/7cbe4be541f8044042bf44aab7b01d/md5/30/3f63d995c1eeaceb3b276b14c0036b/data:
No such file or directory

Are there any special tricks or YAIM configuration flags to get non
shared homedirectories to work with Grid/gLite/Globus jobs?

Anyone have any experience with this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I can't seem to find any documentation anywhere on this.

Kind regards,
- Ramon.
