#******************************************************************************
# Deploying CTSS v3 Globus 4.0.1 software and services on the TeraGrid
#******************************************************************************
#
# Separate Components
#
To make it easier to manage and update software and services the following
Globus components will be deployed separately:

  GridFTP server
  Pre-WS GRAM server, including fork and relevant job managers
  WS (Web Services) container, including WS GRAM, RFT, and MDS4
  Full client toolkit
  Replica Location Service "RLS" server (optional)

#
# Available Platforms
#
The GIG Software Integration team is providing binaries for the following
TeraGrid platforms:

  aix-5.1                  - Less Java components
  aix-5.2                  - Less RLS
  linux-debian_3.1-ia32    - Sarge
  linux-rhel3-ia32
  linux-rhel3-ia64         - Also SGI ProPack 3.4
  linux-rhel4-ia32         - Also CentOS 4.0
  linux-sles8-ia32
  linux-sles8-ia64
  linux-sles9-opteron      - Cray XT3 front-end
  linux-suse_9.1-ia32
  OSF1                     - A.k.a. Tru64
  solaris-9

Additional non-TeraGrid platforms for which binaries will be provided:

  linux-sles9-ppc          - BlueGene front-end
  linux-sles9-ia32
  linux-sles9-ia64

# Where to install components
#
Server (gridftp, prews-gram, rls, and wsrf container) software will only be
used on machines that are running services and doesn't need to be available
to users.

The full client toolkit, which includes all the components necessary for
users to use Globus services and build Globus applications, needs to be
available on machines used by users like login, compute, and gram fork
nodes; but doesn't need to be available on machines running services.

Most CTSS software has typically been installed on shared file-systems and
used from multiple machines. This documentation will assume that that is how
you're installing Globus software.  Software can of course also be installed
locally.

#
# Install ownership and protection
#
All Globus software should be installed as a non-root user, typically 'globus'.
The umask in effect during installation should be '0022'.

#
# Component deployment documentation
#
Deploying each components involves three steps:

INSTALL   - Install software on disk
CONFIGURE - Configure and start services
TEST      - Test services and client software

For each component a separate document explains each step.

GridFTP server deployment:
  INSTALL.gridftp, CONFIGURE.gridftp, and TEST.gridftp

Pre-WS GRAM server deployment:
  INSTALL.prews-gram, CONFIGURE.prews-gram, and TEST.prews-gram
  
Web Service container deployment:
  INSTALL.wsrf, CONFIGURE.wsrf, and TEST.wsrf

RLS server deployment:
  INSTALL.rls, CONFIGURE.rls, and TEST.rls

Full client toolkit deployment:
  INSTALL.client, CONFIGURE.client, and TEST.client
