    • GRAM5
    • globus-GRIDFTP
    • globus-GSISSHD
  • Support for uncertified sites running CREAM-CE
  • Removed metric org.ggus.Tickets

Configuration changes

  • New YAIM configuration variables 
    # switch host checks off/on (see SAM-1173) (optional variable)
NCG_CHECK_HOSTS=1

# change GOCDB root URL (see SAM-1419) (optional variable)
GOCDB_ROOT_URL=https://goc.egi.eu/gocdbpi/

# if LDAP topology is used, control adding hosts (see SAM-1470) (optional variable)
NCG_LDAP_ADD_HOSTS=1

# switch off importing admin DNs (see SAM-1434) (optional variable)
NCG_CONTACTS_USE_GOCDB=false
  • Removed Yaim variable 
    ROC_NAME=...
# use NCG_GOCDB_ROC_NAME instead
Note that after upgrade and before YAIM execution, glite-info-service-nagios.conf.rpmnew configuration file should replace the existing one, i.e. 
mv /opt/glite/etc/glite-info-service-nagios.conf.rpmnew /opt/glite/etc/glite-info-service-nagios.conf

If the .rpmnew file doesn't exist make sure that file contains the following line:

get_data = echo -e "Role=${NAGIOS_ROLE}\nMsgNagiosDestination="$(. /etc/sysconfig/msg-to-queue && echo $MSG_TO_QUEUE_DESTINATION)"\nVersion="$(cat /etc/sam-release)
Globus services currently do not support VOs. In order to monitor Globus services SAM administrator has to contact all sites and request to add the certificate DN to the grid-mapfile.

Known Issues

For machines running latest version of glite-UI (3.2.10-1):

Please restart Nagios after yaim execution. Otherwise you may see problems similar to SAM-1693.

service nagios restart
In new installations please add following line to file /etc/my.cnf and restart mysql: 
[mysqld]
event-scheduler=1

If the monitoring infrastructure contains WMS service and no CE services, metric hr.srce.GoodCEs associated to Nagios service will fail with the following error:

HealthyNodes CRITICAL - No healthy hosts found.

In order to fix it create file /etc/ncg/ncg-localdb.d/GoodCEs-fix with the following content:

MODIFY_METRIC_PARAMETER!hr.srce.GoodCEs!--metric!org.sam.CREAMCE-JobSubmit

and restart service ncg:

service ncg restart
