1 Dynamic Application Installation (Case of CMS on OSG) Introduction CMS Software Installation Overview Software Installation Issues Validation Considerations Publication of Software Installation Considering User Request Summary Bockjoo Kim U of Florida EGEE/OSG OPS. Workshop-3 Sep. 28, 2005

2 Introduction Application software can be installed without publication and notification If software installation could be organized and managed in a consistent manner, one could share the responsibility and efficiently use the grid resources. This presentation shows how CMS software that is used by the CMS collaboration for physics analyses can be installed, maintained, and published on OSG in a managed way LCG counter part is doing this on LCG

5 CMS Software Installation Tool is used to install CMS softwares xcmsi is a tool to install CMS software written in PERL Arbitrary installation directory $CMS_PATH to relocate RPM packages No root privileges required Typically 1 GCC compiler, 1 SCRAM (Soft. Management Tool), ~40 CMS RPMs, ~30 LCG RPMs. ~4 GB space Essential ingredients to the installation are the RPMs

12 Site Specific Issues Dedicated Slot (Busy Site) –Dedicated CPU slot –Dedicated Time slot Disk Space Issue : –Problem disk –Soft-linking Problem resolution occurs : – IM –Phone –Email –GOC
13
13 Validation A series of particular applications should run successfully Only partial validation is possible An iterative process from user feedback and testing Different validation procedures can provide redundant
14
14 Publishing Software Installation Three different types of publications –GIP publication : Job submission time discovery –OSG publication (grid3 style) favored by USAtlas : Job submission time discovery –CMSSoftDB : for just in time discovery
15
15 Considering User Demand What if a user wants a particular version of software to be installed on weekends or holidays. A request submission interface is necessary ? How to authorize the request ? What if site admin wants to install it ? --> Everything is done through emails/meetings at the moment
16
16 Summary (1) Managed/Persistent CMS software installation on OSG is performed Interoperability is considered for both OSG and LCG job submission in mind Local Installation Information for Discovery Service Non-trivial Sites to be handled with different methods and special arrangement
17
17 Summary (2) Use Real Physics Analysis for Validation More validation is required as more grid users will try to use the installation Versatile deployment (retiring old and deploying new) options should be considered With a careful planning and communications with counter part, dynamic software installation can be used for interoperable job submission
