To install a local cache of NeuroDesk on CVMFS
Step 1: Installing the CernVM File System (CVMFS) by following this guide: https://cvmfs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/cpt-quickstart.html. This will allow you to store frequently accessed data locally, reducing the load on the network and improving performance for end-users.
Step 2: Set Up Local Cache:
Set the HTTP proxy to direct: echo "CVMFS_HTTP_PROXY=DIRECT" | sudo tee /etc/cvmfs/default.local.
Set the quota limit for the cache: echo "CVMFS_QUOTA_LIMIT=5000" | sudo tee -a /etc/cvmfs/default.local.
Step 3: Modify the AIS Helm template to include the CVMFS configuration.
