Howto publish Users DNs accounting records

To publish the User DN records in the accounting you should add to your site-info.def the following line

APEL_PUBLISH_USER_DN="yes"

and reconfigure your MON box. This will change the parser configuration file

/opt/glite/etc/glite-apel-publisher/publisher-config-yaim.xml

replacing this line

<JoinProcessor publishGlobalUserName="no">

with this one

<JoinProcessor publishGlobalUserName="yes">

this will affect only on the new records.

If you want to republish everything you need to replace in the same file

<Republish>missing</Republish>

with this line using the apropriate dates

<Republish recordStart="2006-02-01" recordEnd="2006-04-25">gap</Republish>

and publish a chunk of data at the time. The documentation suggests one month at the time to avoid to run out of memory. When you have finished put back the line

<Republish>missing</Republish>
