YAIM

YAIM Ain't an Installation Manager (YAIM)

YAIM (YAIM Ain't an Installation Manager) is, as the name suggests, a way of configuring Grid Services. The aim of YAIM is to provide a simple installation and configuration method that can be used to set up a simple Grid Site but can be easily adapted and extended to meet the need of larger sites. To ensure that local administrators can adapt YAIM, it has been implemented as a set of bash scripts. To support the component based release model, YAIM has been modularized and a YAIM core is supplemented by component specific scripts distributed as RPMs.
