  1. EMI 1 and WLCG Francesco Giacomini (INFN) - SA1 Morris Riedel (JSC) – JRA1

  2. Outline • EMI 1 Release Plan • Francesco Giacomini (INFN) • EMI 1 Developments • Morris Riedel (JSC) WLCG GDB, CERN

  3. Release Plan Start EMI 1 EMI 2 EMI 3 Major releases Supp. & Maint. Support & Maintenance Support & Maintenance Support & Maintenance 01/05/2010 30/04/2011 30/04/2012 28/02/2013 WLCG GDB, CERN

  4. Stability vs Innovation • Periodic major releases of the distribution • Tentatively once per year • Right place to introduce new features and backwards-incompatible changes • Minimize number of changes within a major release • Clear separation between maintaining what is in production and introducing new features • SA1 vs JRA1 • People (developers, testers, etc.) are the same, but the rules are different in the two contexts WLCG GDB, CERN

  5. Release Plan Start EMI 1 EMI 2 EMI 3 Major releases Supp. & Maint. Support & Maintenance Support & Maintenance Support & Maintenance 01/05/2010 30/04/2011 30/04/2012 28/02/2013 WLCG GDB, CERN

  6. Support • Two EMI major releases supported at any time • Lifetime of an EMI major release is two years • Full support: 18 months • Security only: another 6 months • Applies to previous mw distributions as well • e.g. gLite 3.2 and arc 0.8.x would be fully supported until October 2011, with security updates until April 2012 WLCG GDB, CERN

  7. Deployment Highlights • Guiding principles: simplification and adoption of established best practices • EMI 1 reference platform: SL5/64 + EPEL • SL6 and Debian available in EMI 2, maybe sooner already during EMI 1 for some components • One EMI repository (per major release) for all services • base + updates + security • Following EPEL packaging policies • e.g. installation in /usr, not in /opt/glite • Full compliance may be achieved later • Metapackages just for installation • Cannot be used to version the installation of a certain product • In general, no upgrade path between major releases • Including from gLite 3.2 to EMI 1 WLCG GDB, CERN

  8. EMI 1 Developments At a Glance WLCG GDB, CERN

  9. EMI 1 Developments At a Glance • Development impacts: Integrated Release • EPEL-compliantcomponentinstallation (/usr) • Change of Globus from VDT to EPEL(IGE project officiallysupports the EPEL version) • Key Developments • VOMS usingstandard SSL (insteadof GSI) • Startedmigrationtowards GLUE2 • Improvedinformationvalidationcheckings • Improvements for Data components • NFS4.1, WebDAV, betterperformance, etc. WLCG GDB, CERN

  10. EMI 1 Developments – Security WLCG GDB, CERN

  11. EMI 1 Developments – gLite Security • VOMS • Drop of the dependencies on Globus Toolkit • Will simplify the installation (+ smallersize) • Completedintegrationof VOMRS functionalities in VOMS-Admin • (VOMRS itselfisgoingto end support) • Usabilityimprovements: Bettererrormessages, cleaner handlingof invalid inputs • REST interfacetoobtain VOMS ACs • Nomajorfeatures in securitycomponents WLCG GDB, CERN

  12. EMI 1 Developments – Compute WLCG GDB, CERN

  13. EMI 1 Developments – CREAM • CREAM-CE (CREAM, BLAH, CEMON) • Experimental GLUE 2 support • Working on solutionswithinformationproviders • GLUE1.3 still supported • ARGUS Integration for both CREAM andCEMon • Config: Using ARGUS orexistingauthZwithgJAF • Bettersupport for multicoreallocations • (i.e. JDL attributesWholeNodes, HostNumber, etc.) WLCG GDB, CERN

  14. EMI 1 Developments – WMS • Workload Management System (WMS) • Work in progress: Adoption of GLUE2, but in WMS needstobefurtherinvestigated • Manage GLUE1.3 and GLUE2 in JDL unclear • Support for 'feedback‘ • Jobs 'stuck' in a queue for toolongcanbemigrated on another Computing Element • Atconfiguration time: feature must beenabledtoworkasdescribed WLCG GDB, CERN

  15. EMI 1 Developments – ARC CE • EMI 1 A-REX based ARC CE • End oflifeofGrid Manager • The same interfacesarekept • In addition: New Web serviceinterface • Existingfeatureskept • New Features: plugins, improvedinput/outputdatahandling, GLUE2 informationpublishing, newsecurityframework • ARGUS support (experimental) • http://www.nordugrid.org/arc/gm-eol.html WLCG GDB, CERN

  16. EMI 1 Developments – Data WLCG GDB, CERN

  17. EMI 1 Developments – dCache • dCache • Initial GLUE2 support for exposingstorageinformationin parallel to GLUE1.3 • NFS4.1 Support (clientcomesfreemostlikely in SL6) • WebDAV Support • Support for ARGUS blacklisting • Significantlyimprovedconfigurationsystem • Alreadytestedatselected Tier 1's and Tier 2's. • More details, tutorialsandhands-on will beprovidedduring the "5. dCache Workshop" in Goettingen (16/17 March) • http://indico.desy.de/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=3959 WLCG GDB, CERN

  18. EMI 1 Developments – FTS & DPM • File Transfer Service (FTS) • Support for resuminggridftptransferswhere the endpointsallowit • Disk Pool Manager (DPM) • GLUE2 Support exposingstorageinformation(gfal/lcg_utilsupportexpectedshortly after EMI 1) • Improvedperformance in dpm-drain(parallel filereplication) WLCG GDB, CERN

  19. EMI 1 Developments – Infrastructure WLCG GDB, CERN

  20. EMI 1 Developments – Information • Nomajornewfeatures in BDII • Information flowlargelybased on GLUE1.3 movingtowards GLUE2 • But Information contentimprovement • Low confidencelevelthat the values for someattributesarecorrect • Betterinformationprovidersareneeded in the overallsetof relevant components • Bettertesttoolsavailablethatwework on • GLUE2 validation, GStattests WLCG GDB, CERN

  21. EMI 2 Outlook WLCG GDB, CERN

  22. EMI 2 Outlook • Solution for storage elements and catalogue synchronization • Common Storage Accounting Records • Input tostandardizationactivities • Common EMI Execution Service Interface • Preservebackwards-compatibility • Common Security Profiles • SAML&XACML: Common Attribute Profiles • Experimental adoptionofmessaging WLCG GDB, CERN
