Procedure to recreate the scratch

There are two steps to recreate the scratch filesystem.

  1. Recreate the filesystem structure: Make sure that the following directories exist in the scratch filesystem:
    mkdir -p home/nordugrid-atlas/sessiondir
    mkdir -p home/nordugrid-atlas/spool/cachemetadata
    chown nordugrid-atlas.atlas home/nordugrid-atlas -R
    chmod 1777 home/nordugrid-atlas/sessiondir
    
    /home/egee/                                   # Required for /home/egee/, WNs and CREAM have a symbolic link in /home/egee to /lustre/scratch/home/egee
    /home/egi_PP/                                # Required for PP
    /tmpdir_pbs                                    # Where the jobs run
    #/CREAM_CE/cream01/                # <-- Only if the cream01 stores the shared filesystem to store the cream sandbox
    
  2. Destroy user accounts and all data related to the old grid users existing in the system.
    /opt/cscs/sbin/clean_grid_accounts.bash
  3. Run YAIM
  4. Set the sticky bit and correct permissions in tmpdir_pbs
    chmod 1777 tmpdir_pbs/ 
  5. Make it visible for our local scripts
    echo OK > /gpfs/chk_mount
