Scenario 1: Running a pre-defined VM Image
Leader: Michel Drescher, EGI; Matteo Turilli, Oxford e-Research Centre
Following need to be considered with this scenario
- Trust level and Auditing of the VM (since it has to run as Root access)
- Different VMs needed based on underlying Infrastructure such as 64 vs 32bits Or VT enabled plus Xen vs KVM
- Contextualization i.e. how users should login to this vm , how his public key transfer and active to login as root to this vm
- Which libraries/versions/compilers will be installed by default?
From a user perspective (WeNMR contribution) we would like to:
- Be able to install software on the pre-defined VM images (under the user account)
- Be able to save those images (at least for a pre-defined time) (i.e. no new installation each time we wish to use the image)
