OCCI Core ready for public comment version
by Ralf Nyren 12 Nov '10

12 Nov '10

Hi all, After hard work at OGF30 sorting out the remaining open issue of the OCCI model the Core specification document has received a major update. There is some new stuff in there but mostly the document has been restructured and rewritten to be easier to read and understand. We appreciate your comments. If no major issues are found the document will enter the public comment phase in 7 days, that is on November 11:th. regards, Ralf

occi.compute.speed
by alexander.papaspyrou＠tu-dortmund.de 11 Nov '10

11 Nov '10

Folks, in our implementation efforts of building an OCCI service frontend to libvirt, Sebastian and Ediz had a problem in supporting the "occi.compute.speed" attribute towards the libvirt backend -- there seems to be no way of setting this. Glancing at the libvirt docs, I couldn't find explicit support for this either. The question is: am I too stupid, and --- if not --- shall we change the multiplicity of "occi.compute.speed" from "1" to "0..1", since the speed might not be supported everywhere. Another thing that came up to my mind is: how shall we cope with this in the implementation via HTTP: if I POST a new compute, with a speed attribute set, and the backend builds upon libvirt (effectively not supporting it), can I give back a 20* status code and create _some_ resource (and corresponding VM), or is this a bad request? It also seems to me that this special case is something that makes resource templates important -- are we moving into the right direction here? Best, Alexander

Category identifiers and URI fragments
by Ralf Nyren 10 Nov '10

10 Nov '10

Hi, just need to send this out before I forget it. Right now we say a Category has a term and a scheme. To get the unique Category identifier you concatenate scheme + term so it looks like: http://schemes.ogf.org/occi/core#resource According to RFC3986 (URI definition) the URI fragment (i.e. anything after the number sign "#") is not necessarily sent to a server. The convention (at least for HTTP) appear to be that the fragment is not sent to the server and thus only processed by the user agent. In the long run the discussions have been that by dereferencing a Category identifier a client would get a full description of the resource identified by the category. Since fragment processing is left to the client side by using the # separator we put in the limit that a scheme must always be returned in its entirety. So for instance having an XML scheme of the OCCI Core types the minimum a client can request is the whole scheme. Now, I do not see this as a problem. However, if someone had an idea, where the referencing of a single OCCI type definition would be necessary, the Category identifier need to be revised. And that discussion would be grand to have _before_ the next OCCI release ;) I suggest leaving it as is and have the client understand how to navigate the scheme spec. regards, Ralf
