This guide contains information for end-users of the WS MDS Index Service. The Index Service collects information about grid resources and publishes them as service group entries.
The index service exposes information via service groups and is accessed using the same command-line tools used to query other WSRF services for information. These tools are part of the Java WS Core.
- wsrf-query performs a query on a resource property document
- wsrf-get-property gets a single resource property
- wsrf-get-properties gets multiple resource properties.
There is no GUI specifically for the Index Service. The release contains WebMDS which can be used to display monitoring information collected in an Index Service in a normal web browser.
General troubleshooting information can be found in the GT 4.0 Java WS Core User's Guide.
