Abstract: The LHC Computing Grid (LCG) is a project aimed at creating an infrastructure for processing and analyzing data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a particle accelerator. The project is based on the Grid model of distributed computing. The authors describe the installation, configuration, and problem-solving aspects of LCG-1, the second release of the LCG software framework. They discuss the deployment scheme, focusing on the LCG-1 Deployment overview and the LCG-1 Deployment at the MOSCOW site (SINP MSU). They also provide insights into installing LCG-1 software on other PC farms in MSU.

Main Research Question: How can the LCG-1 software framework be effectively deployed and configured for a site, and what challenges are encountered during the process?

Methodology: The authors describe the installation process, configuration tuning details, and problem-solving methods for the LCG-1 software framework. They provide a brief introduction to LCG-1 and discuss the LCG-1 Deployment scheme, focusing on the LCG-1 Deployment overview and the LCG-1 Deployment at the MOSCOW site (SINP MSU). They also discuss the installation of LCG-1 software on other PC farms in MSU.

Results: The authors successfully deployed and configured the LCG-1 software framework on the SINP MSU PC farm. They discuss the challenges encountered during the installation process and provide solutions. They also discuss the installation of LCG-1 software on other PC farms in MSU, highlighting the similarities and differences between a plain LCG-1 installation and installation on these clusters.

Implications: The successful deployment and configuration of the LCG-1 software framework at the SINP MSU PC farm demonstrate the feasibility of implementing the LCG software framework in a real-world environment. The challenges encountered during the installation process provide valuable insights for future deployments. The differences in the installation process on other PC farms in MSU indicate the need for customized approaches to installing the LCG-1 software framework on different types of clusters.
