Update 36 to 3.2 (sl5_x86_64)
Normal priority update
Released on 14/03/2012
glite-VOBOX
For version 2.0.2 all the lcg-vobox code has been completely overhauled to deal with various issues:
- The proxy renewal mini DB can get corrupted by a race condition, requiring it to be removed and the proxies to be re-registered. The new vobox-proxy command automatically converts any existing DB into a set of human-readable files in a "data" subdirectory.
- The voms-proxy-init command can hang indefinitely, which has caused registered proxies to expire on various occasions at various sites. The new code has a timeout + retry loop around the command. (bug #77598)
- The myproxy-get-delegation command can fail when the Globus or MyProxy port range is defined. The new code ensures those variables are unset.
- The new "voname-box-proxyrenewal" service has more robust start and stop behavior. (bug #36766, bug #47204)
- The daemon runs under an "sgm" account, so it can accidentally be killed by that user. However, currently only root can restart the "voname-box-proxyrenewal" service. The new code allows the sgm user to restart the service as well.
