Towards GLUE Schema v Sergio Andreozzi – INFN/CNAF EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting Milano, 8 March 2005 EGEE is a project funded by the European Union under contract IST

OUTLINE From the RAL Meeting 25 Feb ’05
Tentative Roadmap for GLUE Schema v. 1.2 and v.2 Approved changes for V.1.2 General Site Service Computing Element Storage Element EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan

GLUE face-to-face meeting
25 Feb 2005, RAL, UK Participants: J Schopf, Stephen Burke, Sergio Andreozzi, Steve Fisher, Matt Viljoen, Marco Mambelli, Laurence Field, Antony Wilson, Balazs Konya Goal: Discuss LCG/EGEE and Grid3/OSG required changes to v.1.1 Approve those changes that don’t break backwards-compatibility EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan

Roadmap End of March ‘05 After the abstract description is finalized:
GLUE Schema V. 1.2 After the abstract description is finalized: Mapping to LDAP (Sergio) + info provider (Laurence Field) Relational (R-GMA) XML (Globus) October ’05 Start discussion for major version (2.0) Backwards compatibility is not a requirement Inclusion of NorduGrid schema into a common design is expected EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan
5
General Deprecated attributes: UniqueID and LocalID:
all deprecated attributes will be published until a major version is released (i.e.: in GLUE Schema v.2 they will be removed) UniqueID and LocalID: opacity: they are not interpreted by the user or the system as having any meaning other than as an ID based on a DNS entry (for UniqueID, to assure global uniqueness) no assumption that someone will try to connect to this (no relationship to a network endpoint) Backwards-compatibility: changes in minor release are only additive; if a new attribute replaces an old one, they will be both published Progressive adoption: the new features should be exploited by the matchmaking process incrementally up to not depend anymore from deprecated attributes EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan
6
Site A Site entity is finally added
It is a management concept: Set of resources that are installed and managed by the same organization/set of persons Each Service belongs to one and only one site!!! EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan
7
Service A Service entity is finally added
It can be used to advertise the existence of a Grid service different than CE/SE In version 2, all Services will be a specialization of this entity (e.g.: for the RB specific schema, we can start from this and extend it) EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan

Computing Element CPU vs. Job Slot concept SOLUTION:
GlueCEInfoTotalCPUs GlueCEStateFreeCPUs The name of the attribute is misleading as the value does not refers to a ”CPU”, but to the “possibility to run a single-processor job” SOLUTION: add GlueCEPolicyAssignedJobSlots GlueCEStateFreeJobSlots deprecate EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan
10
Computing Element VO view of a Computing Element Solution
Given a CE (meant as a queue in v.1.x), different policies for different groups of users cause a different perceived state of the CE This implies a wrong perception of the amount of resources available to a group of users/VO Solution add a VO view of each CE with the set of attributes that can assume a different value depending on the specific user It contains also DefaultSE (VO-specific) DataDir: path for transient data ApplicationDir: path for installing VO application EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan
11
Computing Element VO view of a Computing Element
In order to use this new information in the matchmaking process, we need a way to consider the VO-specific attributes when they are present and when a user belongs to that VO Solution 1: When translating from LDIF to ClassAd, for each CE Add as many ClassAd CE’s as many are the VO-specific views (ACL=VOName) (VO-specific CE.UID=CE.UID-VOView.LocalID) Add one more ClassAd CE if there is at least one VO that does not have VO-specific info (ACL=list of VO’s with no specific view) Solution 2: ??? EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan
12
Computing Element Glue.CE.VOView.DefaultSE vs. GlueCESEBind
They both express a relationship between a CE and an SE The first is CE and VO specific it should be used to know the default choice for writing into an SE for a user of a certain VO The second is CE specific to be used to resolve “input files” to be used for getting NFS mount dir To be better clarified how to use them. A possible starting point is: “Write” use case: if there is a defaultSE for the User VO, then use that, otherwise resolve to what specificied in the CESEBind For the rest use CESEBind EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan
13
Computing Element Glue.CE.Info.JobManager: piece of info composing the CE.UniqueID; it was missing Glue.CE.Info.ContactString [*]: Hostname:port/jobmanager multi-value Required by Grid3 as they have multiple gatekeepers and multiple job-managers in front of the same set of WN’s Problem: how to choose among them? EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan
14
SubCluster Added the following attributes:
PhysicalCPUs: The total number of real CPUs in the subcluster LogicalCPUs: The effective number of CPUs in the subcluster, including the effect of hyperthreading TmpDir: the path of a temporary directory shared across worker nodes WNTmpDir: the path of a temporary directory local to each Worker Node Isolate the Host-related attributes that are used for matchmaking from the whole Host model Added the Location class: Name, Version and Path: used by Grid3 to publish installed software EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan
15
CE-SubCluster Discussion
Plan for supporting matchmaking in heterogeneos clusters The upcoming GLUE Schema v.1.2 (as it is now) is not able to model CE’s that can submit to a subset of the available subclusters Need for a specific relationship between CE and Subcluster Do we need it in GLUE Schema v.1.2 or postpone to v.2? Evaluate impact on MM! EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan

Storage Element The Storage Element as a group of services, protocols and data sources SE.SizeTotal and SE.SizeFree for high level management Introduction of the Control Procol entity to advertise availability of different management protocols Capability attribute as an enumeration of strings to be used to advertise specific functionalities (e.g., space reservation) Access Protocol and Control Protocol have the same set of attributes Storage Area: added LocalID, Path and Type attributes Storage Library: deprecated EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan

CE-SE-Bind Deprecated AccessPoint due to wrong usage Added MountInfo:
the name of an environment variable available in each worker node assigned to the CE; the value of this variable is CE mount dir and the SE export dir What about a “weight” attribute to expresse a preference when multiple SE are bound to a CE; the higher, the better. Default is zero. Could it be useful in MM? NEW DEPRECATED UNMODIFIED EGEE JRA1 IT/CZ Meeting, 8 March 2005, Milan
