    316316When using a NFS-served file system for home directories, the traditional approach to mount it under '/home' has several drawbacks. In particular, all service accounts also have NFS-based home directories and this may impact all services when NFS becomes unavailable or irresponsive. On the other hand, this is desirable to keep a unified configuration shared by machines sharing the NFS file systems and the other machines (e.g. WMS, VOBOX... all machines with VO accounts).

    318 With QWG templates this is easily done by defining variable `VO_HOMES_NFS_ROOT` to the directory parent to use for home directories on a machine with NFS client configured, when parent described in variable `VO_HOMES` is `/home`. The directory pointed by `VO_HOMES_NFS_ROOT` must correspond to an entry (or children of an entry) in `WN_SHARED_AREAS`. Look at site parameter [source:templates/trunk/site/example/site/glite/config.tpl example] for more details.
