ARC0/Simple VOMS configuration

This page describes the different VO configurations strings relevant for setting up a NDGF associated site. We first describe the setup based on a simple mapping of all users belonging to a VO to a single user - ideally the mapping should should be to a pool of local account.

Tier-1 configuration

Enable the user VOs your local site support, normally ATLAS and ALICE.

Additionally, a Tier-1 site needs to enable a couple of infrastructural VOs, so that for instance monitoring jobs can run.

ATLAS

This is the arc.conf blurb needed for ATLAS:

[vo]
id="vo_atlas"
vo="atlas"
file="/etc/grid-security/grid-mapfile"
source="vomss://voms.cern.ch:8443/voms/atlas?/atlas"
mapped_unixid="atlas-user"

ALICE

[vo]
id="vo_alice"
vo="alice"
file="/etc/grid-security/grid-mapfile"
source="vomss://voms.cern.ch:8443/voms/alice?/alice"
mapped_unixid="alice-user"

OPS

This is the EGEE operations VO, used for running site availability monitoring (SAM) tests.

[vo]
id="vo_ops"
vo="ops"
file="/etc/grid-security/grid-mapfile"
source="vomss://voms.cern.ch:8443/voms/ops?/ops"
mapped_unixid="ops-user"

ops.ndgf.org

This is the NDGF operations VO, used for running regional monitoring and test jobs.

[vo]
id="vo_ndgfops"
vo="ndgfops"
file="/etc/grid-security/grid-mapfile"
source="vomss://voms.ndgf.org:8443/voms/ops.ndgf.org"
mapped_unixid="ndgfops-user"

Misc other relevant VOs

nordugrid.org

The NorduGrid VO is a Nordic academic users VO (researchers affiliated with Nordic academic institutes).

[vo]
id="vo_nordugrid"
vo="nordugrid.org"
source="vomss://voms.ndgf.org:8443/voms/nordugrid.org"
mapped_unixid="grid"
file="/etc/grid-security/grid-mapfile"

gin.ggf.org

GIN VO for Grid Interoperability Now Community Group of Open Grid Forum (chiefly used for interoperability demos)

[vo]
id="vo_gin"
vo="gin.ggf.org"
source="vomss://kuiken.nikhef.nl:8443/voms/gin.ggf.org"
