Thanks for efforts on GLIF NSI+AG demo
by Jerry Sobieski 16 Oct '12

16 Oct '12

Hi everyone- I just wanted to acknowledge everyone's efforts to get code working and network links operating and topologies updated in time for the GLIF demos last week. I know everyone has many irons in the fire and getting NSAs running and features working, and powerpoints built took a lot of extra long hours. But it was successful. We had folks at the NSI+AutoGOLE demo/presentations the entire two hours. I was somewhat surprised that as many people were asking for such detailed information about NSI and the AG fabric. I suppose this is good - it means folks are beginning to think they need to understand it better in order to make deployment plans... So I commend everyone for helping get the NSI spec finalized in the beginning of the week, and getting the AG fabric purring along (again) in the latter part of the week. Many thanks. I hope everyone has had a chance to rest a bit this weekend... as it is now time to look towards Supercomputing. We have four weeks... so say hello to your family, and then back to work... :-) Thanks again everyone. Jerry

Discovery Service
by John MacAuley 12 Oct '12

12 Oct '12

Peoples, I was quite excited yesterday to be able to discover five of the deployed NSA. Some didn't return version information, but at least the endpoints were available. I spent some time running tests and realized that using the discovery interface is a simple way of determining NSA availability for management of connectivity. I was easily able to determine those NSA that were up or down. Obviously, this capability would be useful in production implementations. Further thinking on this topic has me considering adding a simple "hello" or "ping" type message to Discovery that could be used to determine NSA availability without the need to retrieve the interface versions document. We could also add simple information to the hello such as NSA uptime or a last restart token to permit a peer to determine if perhaps an audit should be performed. Pretty standard capabilities in production systems. Comments? John.
