Synopsis

configure_gip will look for the root of the VDT installation at $VDT_LOCATION. If you do not have that set you can specify it with --vdt-install instead.
--help, --usage
Print a usage message.

The following changes will be made:

$VDT_LOCATION/globus/etc/grid-info-slapd.conf is edited to include the GLUE Schema.
$VDT_LOCATION/lcg/var/gip/lcg-info-generic.conf is created with some default values.
grid-info-resource-ldif.conf is configured to use the generic information provider and disable the Globus information providers.

After it is done, you will need to:

Edit $VDT_LOCATION/lcg/var/gip/lcg-info-generic.conf to have correct default values for your site.
Run the following command to create the generic information provider:

$VDT_LOCATION/lcg/sbin/lcg-info-generic-config $VDT_LOCATION/lcg/var/gip/lcg-info-generic.conf
