EndTime
"The time at which the job completed"
Completed where? In the batch system? In the grid layer? Is grid
stage-out included? Maybe there is a need for several EndTime-like
properties? The timestamp when the job finished in the batch system, the
other timestamp the job completed with e.g. the grid-stageout?
- In the case of NorduGrid, "EndTime" refers to the grid
stageout as well, as the job is not considered to be completed until its
output is off-loaded to a grid-storage and grid-registered. Again, there
is a need for unambiguous common grid job definition.
Evaluation: Document needs text to clarify the scope and context.
Specification is focused on resource consumption and resource usage
logging.
