NMI INCA Test setup instructions http://users.sdsc.edu/~ssmallen/nmi.html is the website - set env $INCA_LOCATION to /usr/grid/globus/inca - source $INCA_LOCATION/etc/setup.[c]sh - add port to $INCA_LOCATION/etc/services for tomcat, 8080 and 8081 are taken so I use 8082 mkdir $INCA_LOCATION/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24/logs symlink $INCA_LOCATION/var to /usr/grid/var (for local disk) add the hostname of the machine in the correct format to /nmi/admin/verify/components/inca/hosts.allow (for distributed testing) set ANT_HOME and JAVA_HOME in the env mkdir $INCA_LOCATION/var/depot/ There will be a file called cache created when the test is successful. Cache is not a directory (as per the old docs) and you should not create it!!! run /share/nmi/admin/verify/components/inca/inca_verify.pl The tomcat server should be run as the user who deployed it. If not done so tomcat doesnot start properly as it tries to create a bunch of files which fails becuase of permission issues. One alternative could be linking $INCA_LOCATION/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24/logs to /var/grid/tomcatlogs but I still suspect that will work (Not tested) I executed following commands for the testing ------------------------------ cd /share/nmi/admin/verify/components/inca export GLOBUS_LOCATION=/usr/grid/globus export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java-1.4.2 export ANT_HOME=/usr/apache-ant-1.5.4 export INCA_LOCATION=$GLOBUS_LOCATION/inca source $INCA_LOCATION/etc/setup.sh ln -s /usr/grid/var $INCA_LOCATION/var mkdir -p $INCA_LOCATION/var/depot mkdir -p $INCA_LOCATION/var/logs mkdir -p $INCA_LOCATION/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24/logs depot -help depot -p 8082 -s start collector -depot http://localhost:8082 -port 6323 -allow /share/nmi/admin/verify/components/inca/hosts.allow -verbose 10 start collector status #ABOVE COMMAND RETURNS ZERO. MEANS TO VERIFY controller -spec $INCA_LOCATION/samples/one-shot.xml -catalog $INCA_LOCATION/samples/catalog.xml -out tcp:localhost:6323 -verbose 10 start controller status #ABOVE COMMAND RETURNS ZERO. MEANS TO VERIFY controller stop collector stop depot stop cache file should be created if the test is good -----------------------------
