 === Defining a VO alias name ===
+VO names, now based on a DNS-like name, can be quite long and not very convenient to use in the configuration. This is possible to define a local alias for the VO name and use it in the site configuration in place of the VO name.
+'''Note: this feature was added mainly to ease the transition with first generation of configuration. Even though it is still supported, its use is discouraged as it tends to make configuration troubleshooting harder.'''
+VO names, now based on a DNS-like name, can be quite long . This is possible to define a local alias for the VO name and use it in the site configuration in place of the VO name.
 To define such an alias, a template [source:templates/trunk/grid/glite-3.1/vo/site/aliases.tpl aliases.tpl] must exist in directory `vo/site` in your site or cluster directory. This template must define the variable `VOS_ALIASES` as a nlist where the key is the VO alias name and the value the actual VO name.
