Summary
TSA4.1 - Management
- weekly report collation
- TSA4.12 is consistently too late with handing in reports, i.e. missing the AMB reporting deadlines.
TSA4.2 - MOOC
bi-weekly reporting
TSA4.3 - Liferay
Progress
- INFN finished work
- SZTAKI finished work
- CESNET continuing evaluation of the new version 6.2 of Liferay
TSA4.4 - OCCI for CMF
rOCCI-core
- stable, released
rOCCI-api
- feature freeze, testing & debugging
rOCCI-cli
- feature freeze, testing & debugging
rOCCI-server
- private instance deployed at CESNET, testing in progress
- moving towards public beta (scheduled site downtime for new week,
for necessary soft. & infra. upgrades)
- working on installation & configuration docs
ToDo for next week
- finish basic tests and move on to interoperability testing
- in parallel, continue working on the rOCCI framework
Problems
- None
Delays
- Still approx. one month (== Florian's contribution), no further delay
TSA4.5 - CDMI in CMF
Progress
- release of the 0.1 alpha version
- new deployments at CESNET, BSC
- bugfixes from feedback
- development of openstack support. Solving technical issues relating
to the single-threaded server + blocking openstack-swift library takes longer.
Plans for the next period
- release of 0.2 version with bugfixes + openstack support
- work on API GUI for stoxy
- expansion of cdmi probe
- following back on DESY status.
Problems we encounter, but can solve
- 1.3 month delay caused by effort rescheduling
TSA4.6 - OCCI CompClouds
- no report given
TSA4.7 - AppDeployment
bi-weekly reporting
TSA4.8 - CloudCapabilities
bi-weekly reporting
TSA4.9 - VAPOR
Progress
- Fixed problem of too long delay in the computing of the white list of CEs.
- Code cleanness: improvement of comments in the code, clean up of files and properties.
- Started the development of the next Data Management feature: handling of dark data and lost files: develop a dump file script i.e. recursively list the content of an SE using the GFAL2-python API.
- Fixed a long lasting issue of excessive failure rate on JobMonitor: several issues were found:
- Wrong synchronisation of the machine due to ntp port blocked by firewall.
- GridFTP ports blocked by firewall.
- JSAGA generated proxy certificate issue.
- JAVA 7 incompatibility: on version until Jdk7u5 will manage to generate a proxy certificate.
Plans for next period
- Keep on the development of the handling of dark data and lost files: make a diff between LFC and SE files using SE and LFC file dumps.
- Re-check the results of the JobMonitor against the Nagios alarms to see if JobMonitor does no longer fail where Nagios probes work (follow-up of the issue fixed during the last period).
