Setup to allow gLite-WMS jobs to run

Create an empty file /usr/etc/globus-user-env.sh on all worker nodes.

Setup for LHCb

A default runtime environment must be setup. This can be done by adding the following line to the [grid-manager] section of /etc/arc.conf:

authplugin="PREPARING timeout=60,onfailure=pass,onsuccess=pass /usr/local/bin/default_rte_plugin.py %S %C %I ENV/GLITE"

This sets ENV/GLITE as a default runtime environment. The file /usr/local/bin/default_rte_plugin.py is:

1. !/usr/bin/python

"""Usage: default_rte_plugin.py <status> <control dir> <jobid> <runtime environment>

Authplugin for PREPARING STATE

Example:

 authplugin="PREPARING timeout=60,onfailure=pass,onsuccess=pass /usr/local/bin/default_rte_plugin.py %S %C %I <rte>"

"""

   if default_rte not in desc:
