Yes, it can be based on that configuration generator.

The DefaultIndexService config block needs to be replaced with the
following:

http://www.globus.org/toolkit/docs/4.0/info/usefulrp/developer/developer-index.html#usefulrp-developer-config

[ NOTE: This is true for any information provider using the RPProvider
framework.  This config change enables it. ]

Sort of.  You can't have both NAGIOS and Ganglia both reporting the
GLUECE RP alongside a scheduler provider.  However, you can add a new
config block to the gluece-rpprovider-config.xml file that can report
either NAGIOS OR Ganglia as a different RP while the other is being
reported as the GLUECE RP.

No, don't modify that parameter in the server-config.wsdd.  The
gluece-rp-provider-config.xml can have as many entries as it needs.
If you have trouble with the syntax, I can attach an example.
