This guide proposes a quick way to get your GridWay instance up and running without prior knowledge, just on a clean Ubuntu Server 9.10. You are advised to check the commands and understand what is being done at each step. Still you might use a throughout script:
wget http://dev.gridway.org/attachments/download/43/quick_install-gridway_5.6.beta-ubuntu_9.10.sh chmod +x quick_install-gridway_5.6.beta-ubuntu_9.10.sh sudo ./quick_install-gridway_5.6.beta-ubuntu_9.10.sh
This section is intended for user willing to install GridWay without need to share the installation with other users. We will assume a installation done by a user with sudo capabilities and placed in a directory inside the $HOME folder.
We assume that your installation will be performed at $HOME/gridway.
sudo apt-get install subversion make libssl-dev xinetd ant mkdir $HOME/gridway cd $HOME/gridway wget http://dev.gridway.org/attachments/download/44/gridway_5.6.1.tar.gz gunzip -c gridway_5.6.1.tar.gz | tar xvf - cd $HOME/gridway/gridway_5.6.1
From here on, we assume you have already installed the Globus Toolkit 4.2 and your $GLOBUS_LOCATION is /opt/globus/4.2.1. Check the Globus Quick Start Guide in order to know how to easily install Globus on your machine (you can restrict yourself there to sections 1.1, 1.2 and 1.5).
You will need to add following environmental variables in your ~/.profile
nano $HOME/.profileAdd at the end the following content:
GLOBUS_LOCATION=/opt/globus/4.2.1
GW_LOCATION=$HOME/gridway/5.6.1
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk
ANT_HOME=/usr/share/ant
PATH=$GW_LOCATION/bin:$GLOBUS_LOCATION/bin:${PATH}
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$GW_LOCATION/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH GLOBUS_LOCATION GW_LOCATION JAVA_HOME ANT_HOME
And do not forget to source this file in order to follow:
. $HOME/.profile
This step is required only if you want to compile GridWay with support of the drmaa-ruby, ldap, ssh and Berkeley DB:
sudo apt-get install ruby-dev libnet-ldap-perl libnet-ssh-ruby1.8 libnet-sftp-ruby1.8 libdb4.7-dev
In any case, you are ready for the ./configure; make; make install phase:
./configure --enable-ldap --enable-prews --enable-drmaa-ruby --enable-ssh --enable-debug --prefix=$HOME/gridway/5.6.1 make make install
You will need to edit the $HOME/gridway/5.6.1/etc/gwd.conf according to the Configuration Guide.
If you are a sysdamin willing to give support to more than one user simultaneously, then this section is for you.
sudo addgroup gwusers sudo adduser --system --home /opt/gridway --ingroup gwusers --shell /bin/sh gwadmin
sudo apt-get install subversion make libssl-dev xinetd ant cd /opt/gridway sudo -u gwadmin sh -c 'wget http://dev.gridway.org/attachments/download/44/gridway_5.6.1.tar.gz; gunzip -c gridway_5.6.1.tar.gz | tar xvf - || sudo -u gwadmin svn co http://svn.gridway.org/gridway/tags/GW_5_6_1 gridway_5.6.1'
From here on, we assume you have already installed the Globus Toolkit 4.2 and your $GLOBUS_LOCATION is /opt/globus/4.2.1. Check the Globus Quick Start Guide in order to know how to easily install Globus on your machine (you can restrict yourself there to sections 1.1, 1.2 and 1.5).
You will need environmental variables for the gwusers so
sudo nano /etc/profile.d/gridway.shand edit the
/etc/profile.d/gridway.sh file with the following content:
for i in `groups`; do
if [ "$i" = 'gwusers' ]; then
GLOBUS_LOCATION=/opt/globus/4.2.1
GW_LOCATION=/opt/gridway/5.6.1
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk
ANT_HOME=/usr/share/ant
PATH=$GW_LOCATION/bin:$GLOBUS_LOCATION/bin:${PATH}
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$GW_LOCATION/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH GLOBUS_LOCATION GW_LOCATION JAVA_HOME ANT_HOME
fi
done
This step is required only if you want to compile GridWay with support of the drmaa-ruby and ldap:
sudo apt-get install ruby-dev libnet-ldap-perl libnet-ssh-ruby1.8 libnet-sftp-ruby1.8 libdb4.7-dev
In any case, you are ready for the ./configure; make; make install phase, but it will be trickier since the gwadmin is a system user (that's why we use sudo -u) and environmental variables are loaded when login (that's why we use sh -l)
cd /opt/gridway/gridway_5.6.1 sudo -u gwadmin sh -lc './configure --enable-ldap --enable-prews --enable-drmaa-ruby --enable-drmaa1 --enable-ssh --enable-debug' sudo -u gwadmin sh -lc 'make' sudo -u gwadmin sh -lc 'make install'
You will need to edit the /opt/gridway/5.6.1/etc/gwd.conf according to the Configuration Guide.
Moreover the administrator of GridWay needs to launch the Execution and Transfer MADs as the user themselves, therefore some privileges are required to be set in the /etc/sudoers file.
sudo visudoand add the following lines
Runas_Alias GWUSERS = %gwusers Defaults>GWUSERS env_keep="GW_LOCATION GLOBUS_LOCATION GLOBUS_TCP_PORT_RANGE X509_USER_PROXY" gwadmin ALL=(GWUSERS) NOPASSWD: /opt/gridway/5.6.1/bin/gw_em_mad_prews * gwadmin ALL=(GWUSERS) NOPASSWD: /opt/gridway/5.6.1/bin/gw_em_mad_ws * gwadmin ALL=(GWUSERS) NOPASSWD: /opt/gridway/5.6.1/bin/gw_em_mad_ssh * gwadmin ALL=(GWUSERS) NOPASSWD: /opt/gridway/5.6.1/bin/gw_tm_mad_dummy * gwadmin ALL=(GWUSERS) NOPASSWD: /opt/gridway/5.6.1/bin/gw_tm_mad_ftp * gwadmin ALL=(GWUSERS) NOPASSWD: /opt/gridway/5.6.1/bin/gw_tm_mad_ssh * gwadmin ALL=(GWUSERS) NOPASSWD: /opt/globus/4.2.1/bin/grid-proxy-info *
sudo -u gwadmin sh -lc 'gwd -m'
We recommend you to insert a similar line into your /etc/rc.local to get it started every time after boot
su gwadmin -c "sh -lc 'gwd -m'"
