Geworkbench17grid

From Informatics

This machine (geworkbench17grid.c2b2.columbia.edu) is a virtual machine set up using VMWare, and is used to geWorkbench 1.7 cagrid services.

Geworkbench 17 grid services use caTransfer. There were some issues in getting caTransfer to work with Apache. The issue, workaround, configuration, and how to proceed in subsequent grid service releases has been documented here:

http://wiki.c2b2.columbia.edu/mantis/view.php?id=1952

In short, we use an apache proxy in front of our tomcat instance to redirect outside traffic to this machine:

http://cagridnode.c2b2.columbia.edu:8080/v1.7.0/ ==> http://geworkbench17grid.c2b2.columbia.edu:8080/

To use the caGrid 1.3 transfer service, we also do the following redirect: http://cagridode.c2b2.columbia.edu:8080/wsrf/services/cagrid/caGridTransfer ==> http://geworkbench17grid.c2b2.columbia.edu:8080/caGridTransfer/

You can query services deployed on this machine by using following command in DOS prompt.

 "%GLOBUS_LOCATION%/bin/wsrf-query" -a -z none -s http://cagridnode.c2b2.columbia.edu:8080/v1.7.0/wsrf/services/DefaultIndexService | grep "<ns8:Address xmlns:ns8" | cut -d">" -f2 | cut -d"<" -f1 | sort
