Installation of a Worker Node

For installing a worker node these repositories have to be placed in /etc/yum.repos.d/

 dag.repo
 lcg-CA.repo
 glite-TORQUE_client.repo 
 glite-WN.repo 

You can find the repository files at http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/repos/3.2.

Get them with

 rm -f /etc/yum.repos.d/dag.repo
 wget -P /etc/yum.repos.d/ http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/repos/3.2/dag.repo
 wget -P /etc/yum.repos.d/ http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/repos/3.2/lcg-CA.repo
 wget -P /etc/yum.repos.d/ http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/repos/3.2/glite-TORQUE_client.repo 
 wget -P /etc/yum.repos.d/ http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/glite/repos/3.2/glite-WN.repo

Now you can install the packages:

yum groupinstall glite-WN

and

yum install glite-TORQUE_client lcg-CA

If asked to accept importing the gpg keys of the repository answer with "y":

Importing GPG key 0x836AAC2B "Gd Integration <gd-release-team@cern.ch>" from http://glite.web.cern.ch/glite/glite_key_gd.asc
Is this ok [y/N]: y

Please note that yum uses the groupinstall option to install the gLite worker node software. To list the installed/ available groups in your system you can run yum grouplist:

# yum grouplist
Loaded plugins: kernel-module
Setting up Group Process
Installed Groups:
   Graphical Internet
   Legacy Network Server
   Mail Server
   Network Servers
   System Tools
   Yum Utilities
   glite-WN (production - x86_64)
Available Groups:
   ...

That's all for installation. You can go on with the configuration.
