I know Philiipe (he may be on this list). OSG sends cpu UR from Gratia to the APEL repository for the LHC VOs work which runs on OSG.  I haven’t seen any mention of their storage records in OGF.

Hi John,

 

We have done a bit of chasing in EMI. OSG has a software project called Gratia (https://twiki.grid.iu.edu/bin/view/Accounting/WebHome) which, according to Brian Bockelman, implements the OGF UR with two storage accounting records, StorageElement (path, space token name, space type, etc.) and StorageElementRecord (dealing with measurements). Philippe Canal is head of the software project, he may be a good contact person.

 

cheers,

Jon

Hi John,

That's a good point.

Do you know where we can find it or do you have a contact person who we can talk to?

Google showed me that they just had a Storage Forum but I didn't find anything on their accounting as of yet.

osg-storage@opensciencegrid.org seems to be a possible starting point.

Did anyone else chase this up?

cheers

Perhaps people should look at the OSG one and comment?

Just to confirm that EMI is indeed interested in having a usable

definition of a storage accounting record before January...

 

The EMI data group is currently in the process of collecting

requirements from user communities and storage providers, so not

      

much

  

input from us yet, but I'm certainly hoping for overlap between OGF

      

and

    

EMI work on this topic.

      

Given the short timespand of getting a record definition ready, I

    

would

  

strongly urge towards getting a rudementary format ready very fast and

then iterating over the format multiple times (as requirements get in

and

showing the formats to the interested parties to see if it can fulfill

their requirements).

 

If you wait to start defining the format until requirements have been

collected there will be very little time to work with the record

format.
