After I reinstalled svr021 (CE) we lost some good work carried out by Andy Elwell to allow NGS software tags to be published along side glite ones through the BDII. I found the original post and re-installed the patch.
Wouldn't it be nice if this was available directly from glite well it is now!
The new script will correctly report information from the ngs-uee-gip-plugin plug-in that the NGS sites use to report applications installed under /usr/ngs.
Jason created the patch, I tested and Laurence Field at CERN has kindly merged the changes into gLite proper and has made an updated RPM available from...
http://etics-repository.cern.ch:8080/repository/download/registered/org.glite/glite-info-generic/2.0.2/noarch/glite-info-generic-2.0.2-5.noarch.rpm
so if you are an NGS affiliate site who runs a glite stack, the rpm above will allow both sets of software tags to be advertised through your BDII. If you try to install ngs-uee-gip-plugin without the new version of glite-info-generic your ngs tags will replace your glite software tags or vice-versa. Now they happily merge rather than replace.
