WebMDS

This is WebMDS, a web-based tool for browsing XML-based information (such as resource properties) about Grid services.

Quick start

If a Globus Toolkit container is running on port 8443 of the same host on which WebMDS is running, the following links will show you some information about that Globus container:

A list of resources registered to the local default index service. Note: this list will be empty if no services have been registered.

This distribution contains:

The WebMDS servlet itself, which calls plugins to acquire an XML document and an XSL transform, and then applies the transform to the document.
A set of sample forms demonstrating some of the capabilities of WebMDS, such as viewing formatted or raw XML from a variety of sources.
Plugins to acquire XML from WSRF services (using GetResourceProperty and QueryResourceProperties requests) and from files.
Some simple XSL files to format resource property information.

For documentation and the latest information on WebMDS, see the WebMDS section (under information services) in the Globus Toolkit documentation.
