configure_voms - VOMS and VOMS Admin configuration script

Synopsis

    configure_voms --server <y,n>
                   --vo <vo name>
                   --remove
                   --mail-from <from address on voms mail>
                   --smtp-host <outgoing smtp host>
                   --vdt-install <VDT installation root>

Description

--server <y,n>

For y install the voms init script in /etc/init.d, make appropriate run level links and start the server. For n remove any existing voms init from /etc/init.d.

--vo <vo name>

Create the specified VO. Defaults to VDT.

--remove

Remove the VO instead of creating it.

--mail-from <from address on voms mail>

The from address the VOMS server should use when it sends out email messages in response to admin requests. Defaults to `whoami`@`hostname`.

--smtp-host <outgoing smtp host>

The SMTP server to use for sending mail. By default configure_voms searches (in this order) `hostname`, smtp.`domainname` and mail.`domainname` for an SMTP server to use.

--vdt-install <VDT installation root>

configure_voms 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 actions are performed (as needed) to add a VO:

Set up directories, files, and ports that VOMS and VOMS Admin need

Use VOMS Admin to configure itself and VOMS, including database creation

Patch the VOMS and VOMS Admin configurations to work in the VDT

Install the VOMS Admin web application(s) into Tomcat

Configure Tomcat and Apache to allow secure access to the web applications

Patch and install the VOMS init script and, if requested, start the server

Restart Tomcat if removing or starting the VO
