gCube - Release BETA (July 2007)
This page hosts the latest available builds of the gCube Release BETA.
Consider that a number of third-party software (Scientific Linux Cern 3.0.x, Java 1.5, Apache ant 1.6.5, WS-Core 4.0.2) is required to properly install and run the gCube system.
A gLite installation is also required to provide computing and storage capabilities to an infrastructure empowered by the gCube system . For that, you might need to join a Virtual Organization and configure the gCube Authorization Service accordingly. Some DHNs also require the installation of the gLite User Interface.
