LEAF - Individual tools

Last update: 4th April 200e, Veronique Lefebure

All tools are available from /usr/bin on lxplus and lxadm clusters (or /afs/cern.ch/group/c3/tools for some that are not yet migrated to the local installation) and are stored in CVS (/fabric/c3tools or /fabric/cdbtoolsuite  or /fabric/leaftools ). Most of tools from cdbtoolsuite have already been migrated to /fabric/leaftools.

Next Steps

• Implement a soap version (Work in progress by Veronique, started end of June05), tools will be called something like LEAFxxxxx in stead of CDBxxxx, as suggested by German.

• Maintain/complete a  "Service Manager Start here" Twiki page, gather all bits of information for setting up and managing a cluster (see ELFms meeting report) : VL, page can be found here

• When all tools use the same code, included HMS, we can work on a global log file for all changes applied to all profiles in CDB.
