Release notes: patch 1216 of FTS 2.0

Delegation configuration

Scope: Channel agents only

Impact: Serious. Under some circumstances, the use of delegation will cause the agent to get stuck.

Workaround:

To do before running YAIM config. (If you have already run YAIM, make this change, rerun YAIM and restart the agents).

Edit the files:

/opt/glite/share/config/glite-data-transfer-agents/glite-transfer-channel-agent-urlcopy-oracle.config.xml /opt/glite/share/config/glite-data-transfer-agents/glite-transfer-channel-agent-srmcopy-oracle.config.xml

these files belong to the glite-data-transfer-agents RPM.

Locate the item (starting on line 216 in both files):

      <param name="CredentialsView" type="string" mandatory="fixed" level="expert">
<description>Enable the Credentials View DAO Factory</description>
<value>false</value>
</param>

and change the value from false to true. It should look like this:

      <param name="CredentialsView" type="string" mandatory="fixed" level="expert">
<description>Enable the Credentials View DAO Factory</description>
<value>true</value>
</param>

Check:

[root@xxxx root]# md5sum glite-transfer-channel-agent-urlcopy-oracle.config.xml \
                         glite-transfer-channel-agent-srmcopy-oracle.config.xml

0d3c4a3ffba9fa8b688f6176e81ea64c  glite-transfer-channel-agent-urlcopy-oracle.config.xml
db35e9680521922aa9be04ca6a535320  glite-transfer-channel-agent-srmcopy-oracle.config.xml

Fix:

Will come in the next patch version.
