MachineName / 3.15 Host
- This is a very batch system specific view, again. The relation of
MachineName & Host should be more accurately defined. We assume
MachineName here is actually meant to be 'site' or 'computing resource'.
Evaluation: Editor will check archives and
clarify.
13) Concerning
Sections 3.14 and 3.15 of the specifications:
MachineName and Host may not be sufficient where, for example, there is
more than one cluster at a site. We propose to have an additional element
"SiteName" (see also the proposed name change from MachineName
to SiteName by Dave Kant, keeping both elements instead of changing names
might allow to include more detailed information in the UR, specifying
both the cluster name as MachineName and the site ID as SiteName).
- Furthermore in some grids the grid resource ID is different from
Host, MachineName or SiteName (for example, for LCG/EGEE, computing
element IDs such as
"t2-ce-01.lnl.infn.it:2119/jobmanager-lcglsf-cms" are used as
resource IDs and there may be several (logical) computing elements on a
single cluster). Thus there should be an additional element,
"ResourceID".
Evaluation: See 6k), above.
