How to create a standalone FTS server for IPv6 compatibility testing

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

This page summarizes the steps taken to create a standalone FTS server for IPv6 conpatibility testing. The steps are rather complex. They are not recommended for installation on other testbed nodes.

  1. The Glite 3.2 repository is used. The EMI 1 RPM repository was checked, but it looks like most of the configuration scripts were not updated for that version yet. Add /etc/yum.repos.d/glite32-fts.repo:
    [glite-FTS]
    name=gLite 3.2 FTS
    baseurl=http://glitesoft.cern.ch/EGEE/gLite/R3.2/glite-FTS_oracle/sl5/x86_64/RPMS.release/
    gpgkey=http://glite.web.cern.ch/glite/glite_key_gd.asc
    gpgcheck=1
    enabled=1
    
    [glite-FTS_updates]
    name=gLite 3.2 FTS
    baseurl=http://glitesoft.cern.ch/EGEE/gLite/R3.2/glite-FTS_oracle/sl5/x86_64/RPMS.updates/
    gpgkey=http://glite.web.cern.ch/glite/glite_key_gd.asc
    gpgcheck=1
    enabled=1
    
    
    [glite-FTS_ext]
    name=gLite 3.2 FTS
    baseurl=http://glitesoft.cern.ch/EGEE/gLite/R3.2/glite-FTS_oracle/sl5/x86_64/RPMS.externals/
    gpgcheck=0
    enabled=1
    protect=1
    
  2. yum install glite-FTS_oracle.x86_64

  3. Obtain instantclient libraries from Oracle site
    oracle-instantclient11.2-basic-11.2.0.3.0-1.x86_64.rpm
    oracle-instantclient11.2-jdbc-11.2.0.3.0-1.x86_64.rpm
    
  4. Add /etc/ld.so.conf.d/glite_test.conf
    /opt/globus/lib 
    /opt/lcg/lib 
    /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/lib
    /opt/glite/lib64
    
  5. run ldconfig
  6. Configure tomcat
    ln -s /etc/glite-security-trustmanager /opt/glite/etc
    ln -s /opt/glite/etc/glite-security-trustmanager/trustmanager-log4j.properties /opt/glite/etc/glite-security-trustmanager/log4j-trustmanager.properties
    

    then execute:

    #!/bin/sh
    . /opt/glite/yaim/functions/config_tomcat
    
    function yaimlog()
    {
      echo $2
    }
    
    config_tomcat
    
    mkdir /var/log/glite-security-trustmanager
    chgrp tomcat /var/log/glite-security-trustmanager
    chmod 775 /var/log/glite-security-trustmanager
    

    Point trustmanager JARs to new location:

    # ln -sf /usr/share/java/glite-security-trustmanager.jar /var/lib/tomcat5/server/lib
    # ln -sf /usr/share/java/glite-security-util-java.jar /var/lib/tomcat5/server/lib
    

    Add CATALINA_OPTS=\”-Xmx1024M\” to /etc/tomcat5/tomcat5.conf

  7. Add Oracle JDBC libs:
       cp /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/lib/ojdbc6.jar /usr/share/tomcat5/common/lib/
       chown tomcat.tomcat /usr/share/tomcat5/common/lib/ojdbc6.jar 
    
  8. Try creating oracle tables for FTS.
       SQL connect string:
       connstring='fprelz/XXX@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=dbvrts1019.ipv6.cern.ch)(PORT=10121))(ENABLE=BROKEN)(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=DBV6)))'
       fts_schema_dir="/opt/glite/etc/glite-data-transfer-fts/schema/oracle"
    
       /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/bin/sqlplus $connstring @$fts_schema_dir/oracle-schema.sql
       Then check schema version:
       /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/bin/sqlplus -S -L $connstring @$fts_schema_dir/oracle-get-version.sql  
    3.4.1
       /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/bin/sqlplus $connstring @/opt/glite/etc/glite-security-delegation-interface/schema/oracle/oracle-schema.sql
       Then check schema version:
       /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/bin/sqlplus -S -L $connstring @/opt/glite/etc/glite-security-delegation-interface/schema/oracle/oracle-get-version.sql
    1.2.0
    
       /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/bin/sqlplus -S -L $connstring @$fts_schema_dir/fts_history_pack.sql
       /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/bin/sqlplus -S -L $connstring @$fts_schema_dir/fts_history_body_pack.sql
       Then check schema version:
       /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/bin/sqlplus -S -L $connstring @$fts_schema_dir/package-get-version.sql FTS_HISTORY_PACK
    1.0.0
      
       /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/bin/sqlplus -S -L $connstring @$fts_schema_dir/fts_purge_pack.sql
       /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/bin/sqlplus -S -L $connstring @$fts_schema_dir/fts_purge_body_pack.sql
    
       Then check schema version:
       /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/bin/sqlplus -S -L $connstring @$fts_schema_dir/package-get-version.sql FTS_PURGE_PACK       
    1.0.0

  22. Start FTS agents:

  23. Now the client tools can be tested. The GSI-SOAP communications work on IPv6 only from CGSI-gSOAP version 1.3.3-2 on. Version 1.3.3-1 (found on a production UI) was still compiled with no IPv6 support in SOAP.
    Gsoap supports IPv6 on TCP since version 2.5 (2005), and on UDP since version 2.7.2 (2005), but WITH_IPV6 was apparently left undefined when compiling the gsoap stubs:

    With dual-stack UI and server, IPv4-only clients work OK via IPv4:

    $ glite-transfer-submit -s https://seipersei.mi.infn.it:8443/glite-data-transfer-fts/services/FileTransfer gsiftp://seipersei.mi.infn.it/etc/motd gsiftp://lx5v6hepix01.cern.ch/tmp/fts_test_1.txt
    7a6c73e3-6d29-11e1-b43e-e002d5af454f
    $ glite-transfer-status -s https://seipersei.mi.infn.it:8443/glite-data-transfer-fts/services/FileTransfer 7a6c73e3-6d29-11e1-b43e-e002d5af454f
    Finished
    
  24. To add a new transfer channel:
    1. - Create database entries:
      $ glite-transfer-channel-add -f 2 -b 10 -c Francesco.Prelz@mi.infn.it -t 8 -T 3 -s https://seipersei-v4.mi.infn.it:8443/glite-data-transfer-fts/services/ChannelManagement INFN-DESY mi.infn.it desy.de 
      $ glite-transfer-channel-setvoshare INFN-DESY ipv6.hepix.org 100 -s https://seipersei-v4.mi.infn.it:8443/glite-data-transfer-fts/services/ChannelManagement
      $ glite-transfer-channel-addmanager -s https://seipersei-v4.mi.infn.it:8443/glite-data-transfer-fts/services/ChannelManagement INFN-DESY '/C=IT/O=INFN/OU=Personal Certificate/L=Milano/CN=Francesco Prelz'
      
    2. - Create transfer channel agent:
      /opt/glite/bin/glite_data_config_generator -f /opt/glite/share/config/glite-data-transfer-agents/glite-transfer-channel-agent-urlcopy-oracle.config.xml -o /opt/glite/etc/glite-data-transfer-agents.d/glite-transfer-channel-agent-INFN-DESY.properties.xml -l
      /opt/glite/etc/glite-data-transfer-agents.d/glite-transfer-channel-agent-INFN-DESY.log-properties
      
          Level: low (0)
          ConnectString = (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=dbvrts1019.ipv6.cern.ch)(PORT=10121))(ENABLE=BROKEN)(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=DBV6)))
          User = fprelz
          Password = XXX
          Name = INFN-DESY
          Log file: default (/tmp/transfer-channel-agent.log)
      chown edguser /opt/glite/etc/glite-data-transfer-agents.d/*
      
    3. - Add the following to /opt/glite/etc/services.xml:
        <service name='DESYIPV6gridftp'>
          <parameters>
            <type>gsiftp</type>
            <site>desy.de</site>
            <endpoint>gsiftp://hepix01.desy.de</endpoint>
            <version>6.5</version>
          </parameters>
        </service>
      
    4. - Start the new agent:
      /etc/init.d/transfer-agents start
    5. - Test the new agent:
      glite-transfer-submit -s https://seipersei.mi.infn.it:8443/glite-data-transfer-fts/services/FileTransfer gsiftp://seipersei.mi.infn.it/etc/motd gsiftp://hepix01.desy.de/tmp/fts_test_1.txt
  25. To allow FTS url-copy endpoints to be resolved as IPv6 addresses (the equivalent of the -ipv6 switch to globus-url-copy), at least this patch needs to be applied to libglite_data_transfer_url_copy.so.0.0.0.
