SMSCG Info

SMSCG Project Homepage

To use the SMSCG resources, you must first be granted access to some grid credentials.

Please send an email to aaiadm@id.uzh.ch. You can copy this and customize the parts for you.

I would like to request access to the SLCS certificates. My working group is XYZ. My UniAccess ID is: m######

Eventually you will receive word from the AAI Admin that you have been granted access. Then follow these steps:

  1. Visit this link in your web browser: https://rt.smscg.ch/registration.php
  2. Choose your "Home Organization" (Universitat Zurich). Check the box next to "Remember this selection" and click Select.
  3. Enter your m###### or s####### userid and password. Click Anmelden.
  4. In the VO "Please Select" box, choose "life". Check the box next to "Do you accept the usage policies?" Click Submit.

Eventually you will receive word from SMSCG that your VO membership is granted. You can then follow the steps on this page to find out if all is working properly. (You should run these commands from ocikbgtw.uzh.ch)

Installing Nordugrid Client

To install the Nordugrid Client on your box, first follow the instructions for your Linux distribution:

You want to install the nordugrid-arc-client, voms-clients, ca-policy-igtf-classic, ca-policy-igtf-misc, and ca-policy-igtf-slcs packages. The packaging system should take care of the dependencies.

Download the newest SLCS client here (glite-slcs-ui-??.zip) : https://slcs.switch.ch/download/

Add VOMS to /etc/vomses:

$ cat /etc/vomses
"smscg" "voms.smscg.ch" "15020""/DC=com/DC=quovadisglobal/DC=grid/DC=switch/DC=hosts/C=CH/ST=Zuerich/L=Zuerich/O=SWITCH/CN=voms.smscg.ch" "smscg" 
"tutor" "voms.smscg.ch" "15021" "/DC=com/DC=quovadisglobal/DC=grid/DC=switch/DC=hosts/C=CH/ST=Zuerich/L=Zuerich/O=SWITCH/CN=voms.smscg.ch" "tutor" 
"life" "voms.smscg.ch" "15022" "/DC=com/DC=quovadisglobal/DC=grid/DC=switch/DC=hosts/C=CH/ST=Zuerich/L=Zuerich/O=SWITCH/CN=voms.smscg.ch" "life" 
"crypto" "voms.smscg.ch" "15023" "/DC=com/DC=quovadisglobal/DC=grid/DC=switch/DC=hosts/C=CH/ST=Zuerich/L=Zuerich/O=SWITCH/CN=voms.smscg.ch" "crypto"

Change /opt/nordugrid/etc/giislist:
