Configuration
=============

Please use the <install_dir>/etc/NSCONFIG.templ template to create your 
own configuration file with the appropriate values. If no prefix has been
specified, <install_dir> is /opt/lcg.
 
By default the following are set :
  - log file :                    /var/log/lfc/log
  - configuration file :          /opt/lcg/etc/NSCONFIG
 
If you have a different setup use /etc/sysconfig/lfcdaemon
by copying it from /etc/sysconfig/lfcdaemon.templ and set
the appropriate values.
 
To start/stop the LFC MySQL server, use :

    service lfcdaemon start|stop
 
Note : by default, the LFC daemon will be run as  'lfcmgr'.
 
The LFC Data Location Interface (DLI), used by the Resource Broker 
for match making, is included in the LFC-server RPM.
To run it, first set the LFC_HOST value in /etc/sysconfig/lfc-dli
by copying it from /etc/syconfig/lfc-dli.templ
Then run :

    service lfc-dli start
