This tutorial gives an overview of the Quattor tool suite and its application to Grid services configuration and administration.
The main goal is to illustrate the potentials of Quattor in a Tier2 environment, with services possibly distributed across geographical areas. Examples and demos of real-world scenarioes are presented interactively.
The topics covered are:
- Overview of Quattor architecture and modules; - How to describe and manage the configuration of large sites; - Software package deployment and configuration of Grid services; - Experiences coming from running Quattor instances.
The level of detail is intermediate. Neither low-level installation tasks nor implementation issues are covered, although the attendees should have a basic understanding of Unix service management, as well as of Grid services and versioning-based authoring.
Note that the afternoon is available for further presentations: Anyone wishing to contribute is welcome!Bon appetit!
