OUHEP Cluster Hardware and Software Installation:

OCHEP (US ATLAS Tier 2) Cluster Hardware:

OUHEP (Desktop) Cluster Hardware:

OUHEP_ITB Cluster Hardware:

Installed System and Grid Software (click on the links for installation notes):

• YP (NIS) Server and NFS Automounter (autofs)
• RHEL6.9
• APCSMART UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply)
• Condor
• Ganglia and RRDTOOL
• OSG 3

For Reference: Old Installed Software (click on the links for installation notes):

• RHEL5.9 NFS/NIS Client node post-install script (and old SLF3 NFS/NIS Client node post-install script)
• iperf 1.7.0
• OSG releases OSG 1.2.0, OSG 1.0.0, OSG 0.8.0, OSG 0.6.0, OSG 0.4.1, OSG 0.4.0, OSG 0.2.1,
  and ITB releases OSG 1.1.0 install, OSG 1.1.0 update, OSG 0.9.1
• GASS and GRAM cleanup script
• GUMS 1.0.1
• DQ2 0.2.11
• BeStMan-Gateway 2.2.1.2.i7
• dCache 1.6.6-5 and dCache 1.6.5-3
• OpenAFS 1.2.13
• Transarc AFS 3.6.1 - no longer used; does not seem to work properly with multi-processor systems; i.e., doesn't shut down, just hangs, which makes proper machine shutdown impossible. That's why I eventually installed OpenAFS.
• OpenAFS 1.0.1 -- installed on the RedHat 6.2 nodes.
• pacman 1
• Globus 1.1.4; I had first installed Globus 1.1.3, and I had done it in pieces, part 1, part 2 and part 3. (also, info on Globus Installation at Michigan and Indiana, and Globus Administration at Argonne). And here are some additional tips on how to set up Globus 1.1.x under RedHat 7.2.
• MDS setup (for Globus 1.1.x); GRIS servers on all local nodes - and now also the Condor job scheduler - will report to the GIIS server on the gatekeeper.
• gsiftp 0.3; you can get the tar ball at http://www.globus.org/gsiftp-alpha/tools.html. And the bottom of this page tells you what has changed for RedHat 7.2 (xinetd).
• Condor 6.2.1; If you are using the Globus jobmanager-condor for Globus 1.1.x, be sure to fix the I/O bug in the globus-script-condor-submit; look at the bottom of this page for instructions.
• Globus 2.0beta
• Condor 6.4.7 and Condor-g 6.4.7
• WorldGrid -- VDT 1.1.9
• Grid3v2.1 -- VDT 1.1.14, which also contains MonALISA v1.2.8
  If you need MonALISA v1.2.12 to report to multiple Groups simultaneously, see here for istructions
  More info about MonALISA
• Grid3Dev Installation notes
• CEMon on top of OSG 0.4.1 install
• Atlfast-Fortran -- old and out of date.
• Athena-Atlfast -- scripts for Globus 1.1.x -- runs via Globus, and can also be submitted to a job scheduler (here Condor) to run multiple jobs -- no longer used.
