These are the steps needed to setup a new Virtual Organization:


  1. select the gCube infrastructure to join
  2. decide the scope hierarchy, i.e. the name of the VO within the new infrastructure
  3. identify at least 6 machines to turn on as gHNs (their number may vary depending on the VO needs). These machine will serve the needs for a typical exploitation scenario of the VO: (i) 3 machines for the enabling services, (ii) 3 machines for the VO services (Content Management, Indexes and Metadata Management), and (iii) then consider, 2 machines for each VRE that is expected to be deployed within the VO
  4. prepare a Service Map file for the VO scope
  5. install the VO enabling services:
    1. identify 3 machines to dedicate to the VO Enabling Services
    2. install gCore in the 3 machines and copy the Service Map files under the $GLOBUS_LOCATION/config folder
    3. configure the first gHN to join to the VO scope and
      • deploy the IS-Collector and configure it to join the VO scope
    4. configure the second gHN as ROOT and to join to the VO scope and
      • deploy a IS-Registry instance and configure it to join the VO scope
      • deploy a IS-Notifier instance and configure it to join the VO scope
    5. configure the third gHN to join it to the VO scope and
      • deploy a VREModeler instance and configure it to join the VO scope
      • deploy a VREManager instance and configure it to join the VO scope
      • deploy a Software Repository instance and configure it to join the VO scope; this is an optional step, since also the Software Repository can be joined to the new VO via the Resource Management tool
    6. start the 3 containers following the order of the deployments and verify that they work properly
