Work in Progress

Second version after chrome crashed after 2 hours of writing!

Xrootd testing

Campus Factory

Campus Factory deployment at UofC

Had to stop system condor to use 9816 for collector of this installation

Components

• CF on login2.pads.ci.uchicago.edu running as marco and submitting to PBS (torque/maui)
  • installed in /home/marco/cf
  • using /tmp/marco/... (cflogs-login2, sub, ...)
  • modified blah script, saves submit files (for debugging)
• ui-gwms - submit host (schedd, collector/negotiator, flocking on CF using ui-cr)
• ui-cr - colector/negotiator and CCB server, necessary because all PADS submit hosts are behind a firewall and port 9816 (collector) is blocked
• itbv-pbs - partial CF install (of ~/cf) , not working because of transfer problem
• itb4 - partial CF install (of ~/cf) , not working because of transfer problem

WAITING

• Email to Derek to explain and document the behavior of glideins/pilots
• Security improvements and documentation by Derek
  • If nothing is done I may do it (e.g. using shared secret)
• Sent email with suggested changes to Derek
  • condor -name -pool to select the right host, no need to use the same collector - rethink this in lieu of security - I think it is OK
  • decouple

TODO

• install on itbv-pbs if Rob, Suchandra and Nate like the idea (not needed for testing)
  • sent email about required changes in PBS/home config
• run on alternate port (there may be system condor, more than 1 user may use it)
• mix CF with Glidein WMS
• HTPC configuration
• improve document and bring it to release
• submission test from edge5 (osg-client)

Glidein WMS

Glidein WMS VO Frontend at UofC

installed, tested, currently stopped Components:

• ui-gwms - Glidein WMS VO frontend installed

References:

TODO

• HTPC condiguration

Test Tier3 deployment

Plan

• use Yushu infrastructure
• deployment host from ITB
• rest completely independent, parallel alternative infrastructure

ATLAS (free time)

Python version test

I think I tested already that python can choose the right i386 and x86_64 if they are both in the path.

Can multiple python version cohexist in the PYTHONPATH?
