A gCube infrastructure is a set of working nodes (so-called DHN, DILIGENT Hossting Node) glued by the gCube enabling services and able to host gCube services. There are two kinds of infrastructure: secure infrastructures and non-secure infrastructures. The setup of the latter is easier than the former, since the secure infrastructures require some additional steps. In order to setup a non-secure infrastructure, the following steps have to be performed:
#decide the VOs hierarchy configuration: at least one root VO and a subVO are required to be there #identify a set of machines to turn on as DHNs #setup the root VO ##identify three machines to dedicate to the VO management ##install the DHN 1.0 bundle in the three machines ##configure one DHN as root, join it to the root VO as default VO and install there the DIS core services (DIS-IC, DIS-Registry, DIS-Broker) dedicated to the root VO (named DIS root DHN) ##configure one DHN to join the root VO and install and populate a Package Repository there (named PR DHN) ##configure one DHN to join the root VO install and configure a DL Management Service there (named DLMan root DHN) ##start the container on the DIS root DHN, then on the DLMan root DHN and then on the PR DHN and verify that they work properly #setup the subVO ##identify two machines to dedicate to the subVO management ##install the DHN 1.0 bundle in the two machines ##configure one DHN as root, join it to the subVO as default VO and there the DIS core services (DIS-IC, DIS-Registry, DIS-Broker) dedicated to the subVO (named DIS subVO DHN) ##... #configure and start generic DHNs ##install the DHN 1.0 bundle in each machine ##...
