Dear all, please, find the minutes of the today telecons here: http://forge.ogf.org/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.glue-wg/wiki/PhoneMeeting2... http://forge.ogf.org/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.glue-wg/wiki/PhoneMeeting2... in the computing call, we have discussed the use case of dynamic deployment of VM exposed by Owen. We spent the rest of the session in cleaning all the data types and unit of measures which are now consistent in the whole document. The new draft (no. 33) is available in the document repository: http://forge.ogf.org/sf/go/projects.glue-wg/docman.root.drafts Have a nice weekend, Sergio -- Sergio Andreozzi INFN-CNAF, Tel: +39 051 609 2860 Viale Berti Pichat, 6/2 Fax: +39 051 609 2746 40126 Bologna (Italy) Web: http://www.cnaf.infn.it/~andreozzi

Just a quick correction to the minutes, <original> at DESY, some work with Sun Grid Engine and XEN to virtualize the worker node; this will lead to move WN to Debian; two architecture supported: i386, AMD64; </original> The move to Debian worker nodes, is not implied by this but has been a long standing action since PISA conferance for glite, this is finally occurring. I should like no mention of debian coupled to this discussion except as an example of deploying a worker node on demand. In the context of the minutes I think their is no need to mention it as its quite independent. <suggestion> at DESY, some work with Sun Grid Engine and XEN to virtualize the worker node, multiple OS's can be supported. The framework will in the future be configurable to allow dynamic OS installation by glite middle-ware based upon the jobs requirements. This required an extra boolean field in Glue to allow sites to declare their CE is capable of support user defined operating systems and not just the OS explisitly listed in the Glue Scheamer. </suggestion> Regards Owen

Owen, don't you also need to advertise exactly which OSs you can ask for? John

Hello John, Yes be they already provide this in the Glue Schema, you can advertise the worker nodes as virtualized and state their OS, we also standardised their architecture for i386 and amd64. I guess PowerPC, MIPS, sparc and ARM can all wait until some one has suitable hardware. thanks for checking though. Owen

ok. Thanks for the correction. I've updated the minutes. Cheers, Sergio owen.synge@desy.de wrote:
