The infrastructure

This document gives some (draft) information on the local Globus setup. It does not describe:

• How to use globus as an end-user - see www.globus.org for details on using the grid programs. A good start: the local GLOBUS_INSTALL_PATH should be set to /global/ices/toolset/globus. Start from there by sourcing the globus-user-setup.sh file.

  Certification requests should for the time being be mailed to davidg.

• How in properly run Globus for the VLab - see the document by Frank van der Linden [3] for some preliminary thoughts. The administrative environment suggested in this document is compatible with the proposed VLab environment.

• How to install Globus on another site - but you can peruse the information in this document together with the Administration guide for a jumpstart.

• How to deploy Globus on other hosts at NIKHEF - ask me :-).
