&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Main page on modifying BEgrid templates (will be moved from here)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first issue is see a policy to define what is updated by whom. &lt;br /&gt;
We should try to start from the original files and try to fix the site dependencies in the following order:&lt;br /&gt;
# try gloabla variable first, with or without default value&lt;br /&gt;
# specifiy additional include pro_something_local; and provide all sites with their additional templates&lt;br /&gt;
# as a last solution make a copy of the template and put it in the site specific structure (this one is last because it&amp;#039;s most difficult to maintain)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Structure&lt;br /&gt;
Stucture clusters/site/standard used as from grif&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Hardware&lt;br /&gt;
In Standard, collect all part info, but we need some naming convention&lt;br /&gt;
All machines go into site (that way, clusters on the same site can easily share hardware + this shouldn&amp;#039;t be in standard anyway)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Problem 1: iihe uses modified machine hardware, (ie includes smp and architecture), gent doesn&amp;#039;t. &lt;br /&gt;
 We must come up with a similar but better solution for this) Probably through functions or global variables.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Problem2: fix cciss in aii&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
**Network&lt;br /&gt;
iihe sets boot flags for nics in machine profiles, i added  boot ?= false as defaults in the nic templates &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*OS&lt;br /&gt;
added the rpms from both sites, gent kernel 2.6.13 is in pro_sl305_smdesmet, for iihe, this is in pro_site_kern26. fix this for iihe...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*components&lt;br /&gt;
  Problem: aii MUSt be cleaned out and made equal for both sites&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  Problem: check and upgrade all versions of components to the same version&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  Problem: iihe uses ncm-network and ncm-netdriver. it&amp;#039;s recommended to other sites also.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*pan (previously called standard)&lt;br /&gt;
for iihe we made some changes mostly due to network (ie private subnet + extra components). normally these should cause no conflict for other site&lt;br /&gt;
try to integrate them in the defaults. or make them begrid defaults.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*repository&lt;br /&gt;
currently no central repository. someone should look at the webproxy server config. will be fixed ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Site&lt;br /&gt;
in first attempt, added all old site config files to cluster.&lt;br /&gt;
some of these should end back in site/somwhere/site or even in standard/site (like functions etc)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*lcg&lt;br /&gt;
the number of files in all lcg related directories should be reduced&lt;br /&gt;
   RPMS most of the stuff is correct&lt;br /&gt;
   enabled fm on most machines&lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
   VO this needs to be cleaned out. iihe also uses different than standard approach to add vo. is this still relevant??&lt;br /&gt;
   VOS also must be cleaned out (try to fit as much as possible VOS in BEgrid for easier support on other sites)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  SOURCE: default from 2.6.0-16 in standard, diff against that in clusters&lt;br /&gt;
  There&amp;#039;s an error in pro_lcg2_user_edginfo in ugent site !&lt;br /&gt;
  Most differences between ugent and standard are because of different vo addressing&lt;br /&gt;
  iihe source contains lots of old garbage. fix this. also some subtle changes due to dcache/selist etc. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
try to compare and generalise as much as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
we need a central repo asap. for the moment i&amp;#039;m using both ugent and iihe&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
