perfsonar development work

[Loukik Kudarimoti <>]

Hi Roman,

We have identified the following things that we would like to see 
changed in the ant targets. The expected effort to make these change is 
estimated at a maximum of 1 hour.

1) Change the location of log directory and log4j.properties
** logs should be created inside webapps/perfSONAR-RRDMA-1.1/WEB-INF/logs
** log4j.properties should be present inside the webapps directory as well
(here: 
/home/loukik/perfSONAR/perfSONAR-SQL-MA-1.0-RC3/webapps/perfSONAR-SQL-MA-1.0-RC3/WEB-INF/classes/perfsonar/conf) 


2) Change the location of objects.config file
Move inside WEB-INF directory
(here: 
/home/loukik/perfSONAR/perfSONAR-SQL-MA-1.0-RC3/webapps/perfSONAR-SQL-MA-1.0-RC3/WEB-INF/classes/perfsonar/conf) 


3) Change the location of test of default metadata config file
The test or default metadata config file should be moved inside WEB-INF 
as well
to here:  
/home/loukik/perfSONAR/perfSONAR-SQL-MA-1.0-RC3/webapps/perfSONAR-SQL-MA-1.0-RC3/WEB-INF/classes/perfsonar/conf 


4) Change the default webapps directory location
The default location should be /home/loukik/perfSONAR-2.0/webapps/
In the case, the RRD MA would be installed in 
(/home/loukik/perfSONAR-2.0/JAVA-RRDMA-2.0/)

The idea behind points 1,2 & 3 is that the micro-release product is 
essentially an installer which creates the webapps directory. So, if two 
instances of the same service need to be installed on the same machine, 
we don't have to use two different downloads of RRDMA service tar file.

Let me know if you have any questions. Also, I hope that you can make 
these changes by tomorrow so that we can get the other development teams 
to make similar changes to their JAVA developments by end of this week

thanks,
Loukik.
