6. Russian HEP institutes: IHEP (Protvino), ITEP (Moscow), JINR (Dubna), SINP MSU, TC “Science and Society”(Moscow), Keldysh IAM (Moscow), RCC MSU, PNPI (St.Petersburg) participated in the first European GRID project, EU DataGRID (WP6, WP8, WP10), with success deployment of EDG middleware and participation in EDG testbeds. These activities led to accumulation of an experience in a work with modern Grid environment and integration of Russian Grid segment into European Grid infrastructure.

7. Activities of Russian institutes in EDG Project: information service (GIIS) certification service (Certification Authority) data management (GDMP; OmniBack&OmniStorage) monitoring Metadispetcher mass events production for CMS&ATLAS experiments DOLLY – a solution proposed to integrate mass events production for CMS into Grid infrastructure

8. The technology of creation of GIIS information servers [which collect the information on local computing resources and resources of data storage (this information is created by GRIS Globus service at an each node of a distributed system) and transmit this information in a dynamical way to the higher GIIS server] has been put into practice. So way, a hierarchical structure of GRIS-GIIS information service building has been applied and tested. A common GIIS information server (ldap://lhc-fs.sinp.msu.ru:2137) has been organized. It transfers the information on local resources of Russian centers to information server (ldap://testbed1.cern.ch:2137) of European EU DataGrid project. G I I S

10. . Certification authority (СА) center for Russian grid segment has been created at SINP MSU. The certificates of this center are accepted by all the participants of EU DataGRID project. A scheme of confirming of requirements to certificates by an electronic signature has been created with an assistance of Registration authority (RC) centers which are located in another institutes. The programs on installing and checking an electronic signature and a package of automated operation of certification center have been developed. The scheme CA+RA proposed and a program package have been accepted at CERN and other participants of EU DataGrid project. C A

11. . GDMP (GRID Data Mirroring Package) – a program for replication of files and data bases - has been installed and tested. GDMP had been created for remote actions with distributed data bases. GDMP uses GRID certificates and works in accordance with a client-server scheme i.e. a replication of changes in a data base is accomplished dynamically. Periodically the server notifies the clients on the changes in a data base and the clients send the updated files with a use of GSI-ftp command. GDMP is actively user for replication purposes and is considered to become a Grid standard for replication of changes in distributed data bases. GDMP

12. OMNIBACK Usage Some tests on transfer of data from Protvino (sirius-b.ihep.su; OS Digital UNIX Alpha Systems 4.0) to ATL-2640 mass storage system in Dubna (dtmain.jinr.ru; OS HP-UX 11.0) to define a transmission capacity and a stability af a system including communication channels and a mass storage (OmniBack disk agent in Protvino and OmniBack tape agent in Dubna). No abnormal terminations have been fixed. The average speed of a transmission by all the attempts – 480 Kb/s or 1.68 Gb/h. A maximal speed – 623 Kb/s. A minimal speed – 301 Kb/s.(A distance between Dubna and Protvino is about 250 km; communication between Protvino and Moscow – 8 Mbps). OMNISTORAGE Usage Data storage of data obtained during CMS M.-C. Mass Production runs is provided with the usage of Omnistorage : the volumes of data from SINP MSU have been transferred to Dubna (~1 TB) tp ATL-2640; an access to data via scp. Some first experience with a common usage of mass storage system in Dubna (ATL-2640)

13. Complex of works on monitoring of network resources, computing nodes, services and applications had been fulfilled. The JINR members of staff take part in a development of monitoring facilities for computing clusters with a large number of nodes (10 000 and more) which are used in the EU Data Grid infrastructure created. In the frames of a task of Monitoring and Fault Tolerance they take part in a creation of a Correlation Engine system. This system serves for an operative discovering of abnormal states at cluster nodes and taking measures on preventing of abnormal states. A Correlation Engine Prototype is installed at CERN and in JINR for accounting of abnormal states of nodes. MONITORING

14. The Metadispetcher program had being installed in Russian EU Data Grid segment in a cooperation with the Keldysh institute of applied mathematics. The Metadispetcher program is served for a jobs start planning in a distributed computing grid-environment. The program had being tested; after that the program had being modified to provide an effective data transfer by means of Globus toolkit. Metadispetcher
