FW: [bug #20804] GlueCEInfoContactString should be a real URL

Hi, Does anyone (OSG particularly) have a view on what you would like to see in the ContactString for a glite CE?

Hi, I would like for the GlueCEInfoContactString to be the GRAM-URL for the resource. This makes it possible to use this value out-of-the-box to submit jobs with globus-job-run and condor-g (GlobusResource attribute). The current format of GlueCEInfoContactString is <GRAM-URL>-<Batch-Queue-Name>. I understand that this string is parsed by the EGEE software stack and passed correctly to the underlying condor layers. Today, we need to extract <GRAM-URL> from the GIP value GlueCEInfoContactString in order to make the value useful in OSG. Ideally, I would not want to have to do this parsing. Then again, we have to make sure that we do not break interoperability. Cheers Gabriele Burke, S (Stephen) wrote:

For the LCG CE that's OK, but the glite CE doesn't have a gram interface (apart from fork on the CE headnode). We can either invent a URL for that or leave it unset. In the future it's possible that some glite CEs will have gram as well, but at the moment it isn't supported. Stephen

Hi, having a URL for each different syntax is probably a good approach. Cheers Gabriele Burke, S (Stephen) wrote:

Hi, I seem to have lost track of this ... we still need to say what the (pseudo-)URL should be for the glite CE. Something like glitece://host.name/blah-pbs? We need a scheme name which isn't going to clash with anything else, and offhand I can't think of anything better - the interface is actually condor-C but that might be needed for other things.

Hi, I don't think that we are very resilient to any changes, at this point, but we have to take a decision. By the way, is the lcg broker going to distinguish the new attribute value and not crash? glitece:// seams appropriate to me. Cheers Gabriele Burke, S (Stephen) wrote:

I believe it uses the CEUniqueID - which is of course a mistake since UniqueIDs aren't supposed to be parsed ...
glitece:// seams appropriate to me.
I'll pass that back in the bug as a suggestion unless anyone else has any thoughts. Stephen
