GLUE Specification V. 2.0 Published
by Sergio Andreozzi 03 Mar '09

03 Mar '09

Dear all, it is with great pleasure that I inform you about the publication of the GLUE Specification V.2.0. This work started more than two years ago at OGF19 and consolidates several years of experience of different groups as regards the modeling of Grid resources for discovery and resource selection. The final document is the OGF Proposed Recommendation GFD.147 available at the following URL: http://www.ogf.org/documents/GFD.147.pdf In this work, I want to thank all the persons who have contributed their expertise, time and energy for this important milestone. A special thanks to all the co-authors who have regularly attended more than 60 telecons and that have provided their valuable and essential contribution. The work will continue with the completion of the renderings to concrete data models which will follow in the next weeks. The rendering document was split by concrete data model so that each of them can go for an independent standardization process. You can find the related documents at the following URL: http://forge.gridforum.org/sf/docman/do/listDocuments/projects.glue-wg/docm… Looking to meet many of you at the tomorrow GLUE sessions: http://www.ogf.org/gf/event_schedule/index.php?id=1552 http://www.ogf.org/gf/event_schedule/index.php?id=1553 Cheers, Sergio

GLUE 2.0 Specification - last chance for comments by 20 Feb 2009
by Sergio Andreozzi 16 Feb '09

16 Feb '09

Dear all, we are finally close to sending the GLUE 2.0 Specification to the OGF Editor for publication. After a long revision of the public comment version, we are finally providing you with the latest version of the specification with all the modifications that were discussed and accepted. The latest version of the document is available in the document repository in four options: http://forge.ogf.org/sf/docman/do/listDocuments/projects.glue-wg/docman.roo… 1. MS Word and PDF with track changes since public comment version 2. MS Word and PDF with no track changes you are invited to contribute to this document for your last comments. Please, consider that only editorial changes that will not affect the model will be accepted at this point in time. Our goal is to produce a clean and clear document as much as possible. You have 5 working days for the revision. By Friday, 20 Feb (COB), you can send your suggestions in two forms: - using Word version with track changes enabled on the clean version: http://forge.ogf.org/sf/go/doc15486 - in an email with references to the sentences to be changed and the proposed change As regards the realization document, we will work to update the realizations as soon as possible. Our idea is to split the realization document in three documents, one for each concrete data model (XSD, SQL and LDAP so far) so that they can have follow their own track. We will try to align at least the XSD and LDAP before the next OGF. Thank you for your past and future contribution, Sergio

Hi Bob, I am glad to hear that this work has made progress. AFAIK, OGF community does not make any decision to use or not to use this proposal. Given that GLUE WG is now the center of modeling activity within OGF, GLUE WG may give some comments to you.

Entity descriptions
by Burke, S (Stephen) 29 Jan '09

29 Jan '09

Hi, I have an action to provide general descriptions for half of the computing entities, and this is my attempt. I think we also need better descriptions for many of the attributes, but I'd rather do that by editing the file. I'm not sure if we should say anything about how GLUE 1 concepts map to GLUE 2, but it may be helpful. ExecutionEnvironment The ExecutionEnvironment class describes the hardware and operating system environment in which a job will run. It represents a set of homogeneous Worker Nodes, so if a computing system contains nodes with significantly different properties there may be several ExecutionEnvironment instances. (This is similar to the GlueSubCluster object in GLUE 1.) This implies that it should be possible to request a specific environment when a job is submitted. The ExecutionEnvironment may refer to virtual rather than physical machines. As well as attributes describing a typical node, the class gives summary information about the size and usage of the set of nodes which posess those properties. However, there is no way to relate these to the information in other entities, e.g. it is not possible to know which jobs in a given ComputingShare are running on which ExecutionEnvironment. ApplicationEnvironment The ApplicationEnvironment class describes the software environment in which a job will run, i.e. what pre-installed software will be available to it. Each Application is identified by a name (the AppName attribute); these names are not defined within the schema, but SHOULD be assigned in a way which allows applications to be uniquely identifed. The properties of installed software may vary substantially, but the attributes of the class cover the most common cases, in particular for licensed software. If necessary, additional information can be added using the OtherInfo attribute and the Extension class. ApplicationHandle The ApplicationHandle class is an extension to ApplicationEnvironment for applications which need to be set up in some way before they can be used. For each supported setup method a string can be specified, the interpretation of which is specific to the method - in the simplest case this could just be a setup script to execute. ComputingActivity The ComputingActivity class represents a single (but possibly multi-processor) job. The attributes give the job properties and state as seen by the local batch system, together with some Grid-level information. ToStorageService The ToStorageService class represents the case where a filesystem from a Storage Service is available to jobs running on a Computing Service via posix access, e.g. as an NFS mount. Each ToTorageService instance represents a single mount point. It is assumed that such mounts are available on all nodes (i.e. all Execution Environments) in the Computing Service.
