Some time ago I tried to gain some insight into Unicore 6 because the Globus Toolkit is, at best, tedious to use. After some fiddling around, I learnt that for the experiments I wanted to do, WSRFLite would suffice; but trying to implement a service and a client in WSRFLite proved to be more difficult than programming for Globus – in principle, like developing for Globus without Borja Sotomayor’s “The Globus Toolkit 4 Programmer’s Tutorial” -, so I gave it up as it was not pressing at all.

But after the OMII-Training for D-Grid last month I gave it another shot today after I was no longer in the mood to write proposal stuff. And guess what – after a “short” session of about only 4 hours I finally got it to work! From configuration issues to missing documentation, nothing could stop me and now I have a running container, two deployed services (factory and resource) and a working client – in your face, WSRFLite!

When time permits – which may be somewhere from today to in two or three weeks, I’ll write the steps up and provide everything as a documentation.

Edit: You can obtain the documentation from my personal page at HLRS or use this link to download it directly.
