Configuration variables for AMGA with the Postgres Database Backend

These are all the necessary variables to configure the AMGA service.

There are two example files coming in /opt/glite/yaim/examples/siteinfo. The site-info.def file, containing general variables and the services directory, containing the node type specific variables. Please, remember to move these files into your appropriate siteinfo directory where you store the YAIM configuration. You can also put all the variables together in the same file. For more details please check The configuration variables section in the YAIM guide.

• Mandatory general variables: they can be found in opt/glite/yaim/examples/siteinfo/site-info.def and they are described in the site-info.def variables section in the YAIM Guide: INSTALL_ROOT, VOS.

• AMGA Postgres specific variables
  • Mandatory variables: they can be found in /opt/glite/yaim/examples/services/glite-amga. Sys admins must ensure these variables are properly defined according to the features of the site.

The value of the DNs variable must be of the following format: AMGA_ROOT_USER_DN='C = CY, O = CyGrid, O = UCY, CN = Asterios Katsifodimos' NOTE the spaces between keys - values. Spaces are important for the certificates to work properly.

This can be obtained from:

openssl x509 -subject -in cert.pem -nameopt oneline -noout
