In this section we give a few practical examples that can be directly applied to the EDG testbed. We assume that the user has a valid Grid proxy certificate.
Since all replication tools use the Grid security infrastructure, we first need to make sure that we have a valid user proxy. To check this, use the following command:
[hst@testbed010] grid-proxy-info -all subject : /O=Grid/O=CERN/OU=cern.ch/CN=Heinz Stockinger/CN=proxy issuer : /O=Grid/O=CERN/OU=cern.ch/CN=Heinz Stockinger type : full strength : 512 bits timeleft : 11:59:45
In case the user proxy is not available or has expired, renew it by issuing
[hst@testbed010] grid-proxy-init Your identity: /O=Grid/O=CERN/OU=cern.ch/CN=Heinz Stockinger Enter GRID pass phrase for this identity: Creating proxy ................................................... Done Your proxy is valid until Sat Oct 19 04:44:30 2002
