Testing a Dirac server

• Does the Dirac Webinterface work ? Does it recognize your certificate ? Try the imperial test dirac.

(The structure for any dirac webinterface should be: https://dirachostname:8443.)

• If you are looking at a dirac server setup on a CERN VM, try

ssh -L 12345:diractest.cern.ch:8443 dbauer@lxplus.cern.ch

then you can look at it at: https://localhost:12345

• Setup a Dirac UI following the instructions here. If you are doing this at Imperial just put it in your homedir on lx03/lx04.
• Once you are done, make sure you have a dirac proxy for the VO you are aiming for (dteam in the example):

dirac-proxy-init -g dteam_user

• Try uploading a file: dirac-dms-add-file -ddd /dteam/user/d/dbauer/testfile_d1.txt testfile_d.txt IMPERIAL-disk
