ARC 15.03 update 9
Description
The Advanced Resource Connector (ARC) middleware is an Open Source software solution to enable distributed computing infrastructures with the emphasis on processing large volumes of data. ARC provides an abstraction layer over computational resources, complete with input and output data movement functionalities. The security model of ARC is identical to that of Grid solutions, relying on delegation of user credentials and the concept of Virtual Organisations. ARC also provides client tools, as well as API in C++, Python and Java.
Release notes
This update includes a minor update of ARC to version 5.1.3. In addition to several bug fixes this release introduces two auxiliary tools to (a) generate backtraces from core dumps generated by ARC and (b) to convert delegation DBs between BDB and SQLite. Additionally, all ARC services kan now be managed through the systemd system, as required by the newest Fedora.
This changes the following component versions:
- ARC core, clients, CE, Infosys and gridftp - from version 5.1.2 to 5.1.3
- documents - from 2.0.8 to 2.0.9
- gangliarc - from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1
See the release notes for details.
