+# XRootD Installation (RPMs)
+
+The following documentation describes how to install XRootD using RPMs. 
+
+!!! question ""
+    For questions and support, please contact [Adrian Sevcenco](../../user/help/#contact-us).
+
+## Packages Installation
+
+!!! info "Prerequisites"
+    These instructions assume EL7/CC7 x86_64 platform that is supported and tested. 
+    <br>__Redirector on disk server configuration is not supported nor foreseen.__
+
+
+1. Install required tools (__root user is assumed__):
+
+    ```bash
+    ~# yum install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
+    ```
+
+2. Install the WLCG repository, for example for CC7:
+
+    ```bash
+    ~# rpm --import http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/wlcg/RPM-GPG-KEY-wlcg
+
+    ~# yum -y install http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/wlcg/centos7/x86_64/wlcg-repo-1.0.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm
+    ```
+
+3. Install the metapackage that will pull xrootd as a dependency:
+
+    ```bash
+    ~# yum -y install alicexrdplugins
+    ```
+
+## XRootD  Start Script
+
+!!! warning ""
+    Tested: __Running of XRootD as non-privileged user__
+    <br>Not yet tested: ```xrd.sh``` to generate template systemd service files
+
+1. ```xrd.sh``` script and configuration templates are available from: <https://github.com/adriansev/alicexrd>
+
+2. Deployment and setting up the environment:<br>```xrd.sh``` script and configuration can be automatically deployed from github as follows:
+
+    ```bash
+    ~$ bash <(curl -fsSLk https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adriansev/alicexrd/master/deploy_alicexrd)
+    ```
+    In alicexrdconf (or your directory with conf files): ```~$ cp system.cnf_CHANGEME system.cnf```.<br>
+    Then set ```SE_NAME, LOCALROOT, OSSCACHE``` as all former others are detected automatically.
+
+3. After completing the [configuration](#script-configuration) run the script: ```~/alicexrd/xrd.sh -c```.<br>
+    Usage: ```xrd.sh <argument>```, where:
+
+    | Argument | Description |
+    |----------|-------------|
+    | -f | force restart |
+    | -c | check and restart if not running |
+    | -k | kill running processes |
+    | -status | show if xrootd|cmsd pids are present |
+    | -logs | manage the logs |
+    | -conf | just (re)create configuration; optional args : <configuration_template\> <xrootd_configuration\> |
+    | -getkeys | checks the existence of XRootD PEM keys, installed by alicetokenacc rpm in ```/etc/grid-security/xrootd``` at this moment |
+    | -addcron | add/refresh cron line |
+    | -limits | generate the desired limits file to be placed in ```/etc/security/limits.d```<br>N.B.: ```xrd.sh``` use the size of configured user max processes to use up to max 90% for XRootD threads. This is computed at configuration time.  | 
+    | -systemd | [WIP] generate in current directory a template of systemdservices files |
+
+    !!! note 
+        ```-f, -c, -k, -status, -conf``` options have capability of using arguments for specifying custom paths to template and the configuration file.<br><br>
+        If __XRD_DONOTRECONF__ is enabled (set to any value) ARG1 will be taken as xrootd configuration file (and ARG2 will be ignored)<br>
+        If __XRD_DONOTRECONF__ is disabled (set to empty or not existent) ARG1 will be taken as xrootd configuration template file and ARG2 will be the configuration file that will be created at this step based on specified template
+
+## Script Configuration
+
+The following table highlights environment variables that influence how ```xrd.sh``` works:
+
+| Environment Variable | Description |
+|----------------------|-------------|
+| XRDSH_NOWARN_ASLIB | if set (any value) do not warn ```xrd.sh``` is sourced |
+| XRDREADONLY | if set (any value) export path as not writable - server will not be elected for writes |
+| XRD_DONOTRECONF | if set (any value) the configuration of template file will be skipped; the configuration file that will be used is either the default ```XRDCONFDIR/xrootd.xrootd.cf``` or the argument specified to ```-c,-f,-conf, -status``` |
+| XRDSH_NOAPMON | if set (any value) ApMon components WILL NOT BE USED |
+| XRDRUNDIR | location of admin,core,logs,logsbackup dirs; if not set it will be ```$XRDSHDIR/run/``` |
+| XRDCONFDIR | location of system.cnf and XRDCF (default xrootd.xrootd.cf) conf files; if not set it will be ```$XRDSHDIR/xrootd.conf/``` |
+| XRDCONF | main configuration file - usually (default) named ```system.cnf```; if not set it will have the value of ```$XRDCONFDIR/system.cnf``` |
+| XRDSH_DEBUG | if set (any value) it will enable various printouts of ```xrd.sh``` |
+| XRDSHDIR | directory where ```xrd.sh``` is run from |
+
+!!! hint "Clarification on XRDSH_NOAPMON Usage"
+    When set no apmon (MonaLisa perl agent) will be used to send usage information to configured local MonaLisa service (VOBOX). As replacement a standalone MonaLisa agent (MLSensor) can be used as a system service and the package can be found in WLCG repository:
+    ```bash
+    ~# yum -y install mlsensor
+    ```
+    There is a required configuration of service (as root):
+    ```bash
+    ~# cd /etc/mlsensor
+    ~# mlsensor_config <configuration_template> <name of ALICE storage name>
+    ```
+    The service can be started/restarted with : ```systemctl start mlsensor```<br>
+    It can be enabled (auto starting at boot): ```systemctl enable mlsensor```<br>
+    or both at the same time: ```systemctl enable --now mlsensor```
