Hi Alan, I just implemented simple authentication for the OCCI server. I plan to test/finnish actions and then setup a testbed for "public" testing. This will probably take a week, but if it is needed sooner, I do my best to speed things up. Cheers, Florian Am 15.05.11 03:19 schrieb "Sill, Alan" unter <alan.sill@ttu.edu>:
Hi Florian,
We will probably want access to a server for SAJACC tests, if that can be arranged. What sort of access controls can we use? (I have a VOMS service we can use if that would be helpful.)

Hi,
I just set up a server with our OCCI implementation using the dummy backend. Feel free to try it at http://ls22.itmc.tu-dortmund.de:4567/
If you like to use a demo server using the OpenNebula backend, please contact me and I will configure access for you.
Cheers, Florian

Hi,
as a followup to the announcement, I'd like to give some details and like to announce a second (alpha) release I just uploaded.
Our OCCI Implementation is written in Ruby and we tried to make it independent from the backend. There currently are two backends implemented. Once a very simple Dummy Backend, which allows testing of the OCCI compliance. The other backend is interfacing between the OCCI server and OpenNebula using the OpenNebula Client API.
As far as we understood the OCCI specification, our implementation is compliant with the OCCI Core and OCCI HTTP Rendering documents and it implements all required resources from OCCI Infrastructure and most of the Mixins (e.g. the Infrastructure templates are not yet implemented). If testing the implementation, please consider my comments regarding the specification which I summed up in my mail "Cloud Plugfest summary".
The OpenNebula backend implements a subset of the features offered by our implementation. Currently the following is working: - GET is working for entities and kinds/mixins. The OCCI Server does not yet check for updates of status or parameters in OpenNebula. - POST is working for creation of entities. Actions are not yet supported, but will be soon - after some more testing. - PUT is not yet tested with the backend - DELETE is working
During startup, all resources known to OpenNebula are initialized by the OCCI server and can be used through OCCI requests. Images can be uploaded during creation of OCCI Storage resources. OpenNebula specific features which could not be mapped to OCCI parameters were implemented as OpenNebula specific Mixins.
During the implementation we had a lot of problems mapping the OCCI Infrastructure model to the OpenNebula model. From our point of view it would be best to specify only a very small set of mandatory parameters for the Infrastructure resources and then use a model like CIM for more complex requests. The OCCI Infrastructure model seems to be the central point for interoperability and thus a lot of experience is required to find a suitable "best practise". Are there any documents / discussions I can read to get more information on the decision / next steps for the Infrastructure model? I would be glad to participate in finding best practices for interoperability.
I will probably attend OGF 32, who else does?
Also there was an announcement at the end of the last SNIA plugfest that another plugfest should take place just before OGF 32. If so, I would also very much like to attend in person. Does anyone have more information on an upcoming plugfest?
Cheers, Florian
