Note: This version of the VDT (1.3.4) is no longer supported. Feel free to look through the documentation and install it, but we cannot guarantee support for it. The current stable release is 2.0.0.

Installing VDT Debian Packages

A subset of the VDT is now available in Debian packages for Debian Linux 3.1 (sarge). We will be working to make .debs for the other packages provided by the VDT in future releases.

Caveats: Using the VDT Debian packages is not as nice as using the Pacman installation. The packages do no configuration so it is up to you to figure out how to do it. Currently there are not any of the nifty VDT utilities as part of the Debian packages. This is a subset of the software.

That said, these packages should work fine for a grid client installation with little effort. You'll still need to do more configuration if you plan on running any grid services, but we're working hard to eliminate that step for future releases.

Debian packages can be found at: http://vdt.cs.wisc.edu/native_packages/1.3.4/deb/sarge

Steps for installing Debian Packages

  1. Add the VDT Debian repository to your sources.list file 
    vdt-debian31-ia32:~# echo 'deb http://vdt.cs.wisc.edu/native_packages/1.3.4/deb/sarge /' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
vdt-debian31-ia32:~# apt-get update
  2. Install the packages 
    vdt-debian31-ia32:~# apt-get install vdt

Setting up vdt-condor (VDT1.3.4) ...
You should look inside the post-install README file for some details about
how Condor was installed.

Condor has been installed into:
    /opt/vdt/condor

In order for Condor to work properly you must set your 
CONDOR_CONFIG environment variable to point to your 
Condor configuration file: 
    /opt/vdt/condor/etc/condor_config 
before running Condor commands/daemons.

In order for the kx509 clients to find the kca server, you will need
to add the following entries to DNS. Ask your network administrator
for assistance.

_kca._udp.DOMAIN.  IN   SRV    0       0       PORT1   HOST1
                   IN   SRV    0       0       PORT2   HOST2

In order to authenticate kerberos users, the kca service must have a
keytab file (Kerberos V) or srvtab file (Kerberos IV). This must be
generated with the principal kca_service/HOST. The keytab or srvtab
file must be located in /opt/vdt/globus/etc/kca/kca_keytab or
/opt/vdt/globus/etc/kca/kca_srvtab respectively.
Ask your kerberos administrator for assistance.
