DataTAG is a project funded by the European Union DataTAG WP4 meeting, Bologna 29/07/2003 – n o 3 Computing resources Issue 1: CE viewpoint of the cluster The subcluster concept is suitable to provide a summary description of the nature of a cluster in term of host characteristics It does not properly suits brokering needs This leads to the current EDG constraint of one subcluster per cluster This is a limitation because: Does not accommodate the hypothesis of heterogeneous clusters Does not accommodate flexibility in batch system configuration MISSING TO EXPRESS DESCRIPTION OF NODES ASSIGNED TO A SPECIFIC QUEUE

A specific software is installed in that node.

7. DataTAG is a project funded by the European Union DataTAG WP4 meeting, Bologna 29/07/2003 – n o 7 Computing resources Issue 2: multiple entry points to a queue The CE Unique ID contains the contact point For scalability issues, in big cluster it is envisioned: To separate gatekeeper from batch server To deploy more than one gatekeeper This leads to the duplication of CE entities Needs to refine the CE definition Possible solution: refine the CE ID, (informally) from the grid entry point into a queue of a batch system, to the queue of a batch system Entry points are properties of the CE

9. DataTAG is a project funded by the European Union DataTAG WP4 meeting, Bologna 29/07/2003 – n o 9 Storage resources The Grid Resource is the space being shared Glue SE Schema aims at provide a generalization for several Storage Resource Manager Glue SE Schema 1.1 is mainly based on experience on using disk-servers with a set of protocol to access/transfer data design documents related to SRM

10. DataTAG is a project funded by the European Union DataTAG WP4 meeting, Bologna 29/07/2003 – n o 10 Storage resources Current deployment experience within EDG 2.0 (where SE is the EDG-SE) is providing useful feedback Several refinements are needed in order to deal with new use cases I’m working on a proposal with use cases; this will take into account most of the features discussed during last CHEP (ref: http://www.cnaf.infn.it/~sergio/datatag/glue/v11/SE/GlueSE_revision.html)

11. DataTAG is a project funded by the European Union DataTAG WP4 meeting, Bologna 29/07/2003 – n o 11 GLUE Schema extended for monitoring within DataTAG we have extended the host entity with several metrics these have not been proposed for inclusion in the GLUE schema any action on this?

12. DataTAG is a project funded by the European Union DataTAG WP4 meeting, Bologna 29/07/2003 – n o 12 GLUE Schema integration in VDT Early July, meeting with Alain Roy at CNAF Achievement: By this week in VDT 1.1.10 there will be: Updated GLUE Schema, extended version EDG CE Info provider properly configured for CONDOR LRMS
