Discovery URLs
by Henrik Thostrup Jensen 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

Hi This is only relevant for people running an NSA with NSIv2. The current AutoGOLE topology lists the endpoints for the ConnectionService. It should really list the discovery URLs. Can people running an NSA with NSIv2 support please send the URL for discovery. Jeroen and I will add them to the topology. Initially we will both list the discovery and CS URL in the topology in order not to break anything. We will probably remove the CS endpoint at some time in the future (otherwise there is not much point to the discovery service really). Thanks. (and yes, work on NSI2 support in OpenNSA has started). Best regards, Henrik Henrik Thostrup Jensen <htj at nordu.net> Software Developer, NORDUnet

Awesome accomplishments at Supercomputing last week with the NSI v2 demos. Given this is thanksgiving week in US an Terena network architects meeting in Europe where some of the NSI participants are, we are not going to have a call today. Sorry if this is a repeat message, -Inder (Mistakes attributed to thumb-typing on a mobile device)

Successful SuperComputing Demos
by Jerry Sobieski 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

Hi all- I want to apprise everyone of the successful NSI and AutomatedGOLE demos that took place last week at Supercomputing in Salt Lake City. The demos consisted of deployments of NSI v2 into the Automated GOLE fabric. We unfortunately did not have all the NSI implementations at v2 yet, which posed a technical challenge to get v1 and v2 implementations to interoperate. But as noted below, folks figured out how to address the issue and we were able to get v1 and v2 to co-exist! Another bright spot: we had OSCARS active in the mix for the first time and running v2 (!) ... This is a great new capability for both the OSCARS user community and the NSI community. The demos all went exceedingly well - not without challenges - but the problems were resolved and the demonstrations were showed to numerous folks. I would like to thank especially Tomohiro Kudoh and the team at AIST for providing a v1-v2 translation capability in GLAMBDA-A that made it possible for the AutoGOLE to run in mixed mode. And I would also like to recognize Jeroen van der Ham at University of Amsterdam for his efforts in translating and tweeking topologies in the new N3 format for the networks involved. Jeroen was also responsible for adapting the automated connection scheduler to v2. I also want everyone to recognize generally the effort the v2 implementation required. While there is much work still ahead to refine the v2 implementations, this was a mammoth effort with a very short timeline to get v2 implemented in time for this string of demos this fall. So thank you all! And congratulations for another successful milestone and demonstration! Best regards to all! Jerry

SC dinner?
by Jerry Sobieski 15 Nov '12

15 Nov '12

Hi all - sorry for spamming both lists... For those of you at SC, I would like to propose a dinner Wednesday night for those involved in the NSI and AutoGOLE demos. Time and place TBD, but some place nice enough for everyone to relax and not talk about NSI or AutoGOLEs etc. I am thinking around 8 or 9pm... there is a good Brazilian Steak House nearby... and I hear Chin knows a good Thai restaurant....:-) If you are interested, please drop me a note. Thanks Jerry

AutoGOLE diagram v9
by Jerry Sobieski 13 Nov '12

13 Nov '12

Hi all- I am sorry to do this but I have a change to the AutoGOLE diagram. It was decided over the weekend that since there was such a short runway to prepare, that both WIX and MAX decided to bow out of the NSI+GLIF SC demos. And so they requested that we not include them in the various demo flyers. So attached is an updated diagram of the AutoGOLE. The only modification from the v8 diagram to the v9 diagram is the deletion of the two networks. All other NSI exchange points remain in the same location on the diagram. Please look at the accompanying flyer and diagram and if you have any last minute changes - you need to get them to me asap. I will try to print up new flyers in time for tomorrow morning. Last call! Thanks! Jerry PS - sorry these are big files.
