1. Ruth Pordes Executive Director University of Washingon Seattle OSG Consortium Meeting 21st August University of Washingon Seattle

2. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 2 Thank you to our hosts.

3. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 3 The Context OSG has few face to face meetings. The main ones are the semi- annual Consortium meetings. So we use this meeting to a) Review what has happened over the past six months. b) Hear from our contributors and partners on some aspects of mutual interest. c) Share and communicate our goals and plans. d) Move the technical program of the OSG forward. The goal is that we all listen, discuss, complain and construct. Goal is to make the OSG the “A” Grid.

4. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 4 This week we will.. Hear from our Contributors about the Science from current use of the OSG. We will Engage with new communities and partners. We will hear from our partners about Campus and peer Grid Infrastructures. Get updates of the status of OSG, the Facility and Education programs; We will cover much about Security --- Risk, Responsibility, Tracking for OSG itself, Virtual Organizations, Sites and interfaces to peer grids ---. We will have sessions where people share their experiences and learn from each other --- Site, Facility and VO Administrators, Users etc. We will have a few Demonstrations tomorrow. Discuss and decide on aspects of the short term Technical Program: Make decisions for the OSG 0.6.0 software release and associated VDT releases. Plan the next Steps in: Information Services, Information Management, Data Management, Workload Management, Education, Inclusion, Communication.

5. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 5 First the recap..

6. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 6 What we have not gotten done since the last Consortium meeting  Site Space management so that VOs and Sites have robust, managed shared storage and space services.  Simple metrics of use and accounting not deployed uniformly across sites.  Fixed severe lack of robustness of Authz components (especially GUMS) and simplicity of use.  VOs knowing and negotiating with Sites to really support their applications.  Changed the perception that OSG is “mainly physics”. Why is this? GADU only has had one major run; suite of math jobs from Football pool problem; Nanohub jobs undergoing troubleshooting.  …

7. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 7 What we have Accomplished  Sustained and operated the OSG to the benefit of >15 user organizations. (during ramp down of funded Grid projects and uncertainty in future).  Increased the robustness and scalability of the Compute Element head node by implementing a managed-fork queue and “nfs-less” shared disk areas.  Made effective contributions to WLCG (grid and application) Service Challenges as the US common infrastructure for ATLAS and CMS  Released 3 versions of the Virtual Data Toolkit and released OSG 0.4.1.  Increased the average number of jobs on OSG by 1/3 (2000-> 3000) and the number of Sites - Compute and Storage - by a few %. Increased LIGO and STAR jobs a few.  Written a comprehensive Security Risk Assesment of the OSG and an initial security plan.  Achieved Federation of local-area Campus Grids bridging to wide-area cyber-infrastrastructures.  Run the 4th successful Summer Grid Workshop with >45 students who actually adapted their own applications to run across multiple remote sites.  Released OSG RA.

8. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 8 32 Virtual Organizations - participating Groups 3 with >1000 jobs max. (all particle physics) 3 with 500-1000 max. (all outside physics) 5 with 100-500 max (particle, nuclear, and astro physics)

10. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 10 More Documentation

11. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 11 And..oh yes.. The OSG proposal was finished and submitted to DOE and NSF in March & February. In June funding the agencies asked for revised budget with more than a 25% reduction to $6M/year: ~33 FTE/year of effort. We are going ahead with our planning on the assumption that funding is coming in the next few months. The project will be accountable in its promises and deliverables to the funding sources; we expect to be reviewed on our project plan and milestones ~3 months after funding. We will have Expectations of the project, which will be documented, tracked and planned across the funded effort. For the next 5 years we must be serious about delivering the fundamental Production Quality Facility for our Users.

12. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 12 the OSG Project and its part in the OSG Consortium

13. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 13 The OSG Project will deliver Maintainenance of an expanding Production Distributed Facility which provides core capabilities in Operations, Security, Software Releases, the Virtual Data Toolkit, Troublshooting and supports the Engagement of new communities to use the OSG. Education, Training and Outreach with a core focus on expanding the number, location and scope of the Grid Schools and web based training. User Support, Service and System Extensions for increased scale, performance and capability of the common services for the stakeholder VOs. OSG Staff: executive director, project consultant, administrative help and Technical documentation for training system administrators, users and VO administrators.

18. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 18 OSG PEP - Security, Safety, Risk Management The OSG Facility assesses, monitors and responds to security issues. The Security Officer coordinates these. Each site, user and administrator has responsibility for local security and reporting incidents that may occur. The OSG will have a comprehensive security plan modeled on the NIST process. While Environment, Safety and Health (ES&H) remains the responsibility of the owners of the resources made accessible to the Open Science Grid, the project organization will pay attention to ESH issues during travel, meetings and OSG activities

19. OSG Consortium, 2/21/06 19 OSG Project Effort Distribution Year 1 Each Institution will have a signed Statement of Work (MOU). Each individual will submit open monthly written reports. Finance Board will review the accounts and deliverables. Executive Board will review the plans and achievements. Activities will be covered by the Project Plan and WBS. Effort distribution will be reviewed and potentially modified each year.
