Assessment of progress, 2011

The Accounting Repository and Portal were kept working reliably throughout 2011. The RGMA input interface was finally closed at the end of February with a number of migrations at the last minute, and later. Since the sites who left it late were generally those with lower levels of support, both internally and in their NGI, there was a heavy support load on the central repository team during this migration.

There were two(?) major releases of the portal in 2011. The first introduced the new GOCDB4 PI. The second was a major rewrite of the visualisation. Enhanced reports were also produced for WLCG. The whole portal infrastructure was virtualised in OpenNebula.

The apel-prod and apel-sync tests for SAM were made more reliable and publish into the latest SAM infrastructure via the production EGI messaging infrastructure.

The new SSM-based repository was released for testing by third-party accounting systems who currently publish summaries by direct database insertion. This was ready for production right at the end of the year but it was not thought wise to put it formally into production just before the holiday period.

Lots of discussions with Unicore, IGE, ARC on long-term plans for central accounting and interfacing their different solutions.

Participation in the EGI Virtualisation and Cloud Task Force on the accounting aspects of VM and Cloud usage.

Plans for 2012

The SSM-based repository which uses the EGI production messaging infrastructure for publishing summaries of cpu usage will start receiving summary data in early 2012. After a period for all other infrastructures to migrate, the underlying job database will be migrated to a new schema and structure. Existing job cpu publishing through the emi and glite apel clients will be redirected at the consumer end into the new repository. The service will then be ready to receive job records through SSM. This will require a new client from EMI. The new repository will be ready to receive additional types of accounting record but the exact nature of these and the resultant workflow still needs to be agreed.

Two releases of the portal are foreseen: Deneb (4.1) 30/04/2012 and Electra (4.2) 31/10/2012. Aligned with the repository changes the portal will also change to receiving summary data by messaging. The portal will also react to changing requirements for additional types of accounting records as these are agreed.

Both the repository and portal will migrate to SL6 in 2012.

Continuous Improvement.
