=================================== Minutes from DJRA4.5 status meeting =================================== Date: 19 October 2005 15:00 CEST/14:00 BST Venue: CERN teleconference +41 22 767 7000 Present: UEDIN: Kostas Kavoussanakis (KK), Andy Jackson (AJ), Alistair Phipps (AKP), Morag Burgon-Lyon (MBL) CNRS: Sophie Nicoud (SN) DL: Mark Leese (ML) Apologies: DFN: Robert Stoy (RS) CNRS: Benjamin Vial (BV) DANTE: Loukik Kudarimoti (LK) Agenda ====== * Actions from previous meeting * Status of and issues with MJRA4.6 workpackages * DJRA4.5 workpackages https://edms.cern.ch/document/654864/1 * Holidays/Absences - DONM Currently Active Workpackages ============================= WP1.1 Gather WMS and DM requirements and use cases WP2.1 Build e2emonit RPMs from JRA4 repository WP2.2 Create crontabs suitable for JRA4 testbed WP2.3 Test e2emonit RPMS and crontabs on JRA4 testbed WP2.5 Document installation of e2emonit RPMs and crontabs WP4.1 NMWG4RGMA Design WP4.2b NMWG4RGMA Implementation WP5.1 Document Design WP5.2 Implement additonal features WP5.3 System test additional features WP6.1 Document service design WP7.2 Implement traceroute tool for e2emonit WP7.3 Test traceroute tool for e2emonit WP7.5 Implement iperf wrapper for e2emonit WP8 Test Deployment (All ongoing during DJR4.5) Actions ======= Arising ------- [AKP] Organise, chair and minute meetings of 2, 9 and 16 Nov [BV] Add cron restart to installation guide (WP2.5) [BV] Add netmon2rgma restart to installation guide (WP2.5) [BV] Update gLite-netmon-config-update to remove bw_mon.cmd3. Add glite-netmon-config-update to JRA4 repository, generate RPMs and tag repository. [BV/SN] Add the RPM attached to AKP's 17:12:23 +0100 (BST) email to the marius current RPM download page and add instructions for installation to the install guide, and test the RPM on Marius (and the building if you wish - use "ant rpm"). This needs to be done before sending the RPMs & crontabs to SA1. [BV] document the need to have /etc/java/java.conf set up in the installation guide. This should be done before we send the document to SA1. [BV] Fix extra $1 issue on crontabs [BV & MBL] Test new RPMs and crontabs [SN] Consider CNRS taking on WP7.1 and mail KK with decision Actions Continuing ------------------ [BV] Implement AKP-supplied rough format for traceroute output [ML] Think of use cases to add to DT use case document [BV] Send comments to RS on available bandwidth/jitter wrapper around iperf [ML] Send comments to RS on available bandwidth/jitter wrapper around iperf [RS] Reply to comments on available bandwidth/jitter wrapper around iperf [ANJ] Complete DT Design [LK] Produce rough TL design document for 10 October [LK] Start discussion with NRENs about whether two roles are sufficient for authorising access to their data [started, waiting for feedback] -- NRENs providing data for september deadline are ok providing data without any policies (except GEANT). Other NRENs for future data retrieval are slower in response. [KK] Monitor NS drafting disclosure declarations in EGEE wrt NPM data from NRENs. [ML] Tell AKP which parameters map to which characteristics. -- done for e2emonit; ongoing otherwise Completed --------- [AKP] Supply BV with rough format for traceroute output [AKP] Add to Arch doc "download-able user diagnostic/measurement agent" based on RS's NOC feedback [AKP] Draft email to npm-deploy list explaining what we need to do for Pisa DJRA4.5 DJRA4.5 ======= WP1 Middleware Requirements =========================== WP1.1 Gather WMS and DM requirements and use cases --------------------------------------------------- AKP & KK last week: - Useful telecon with JRA1 (Tiziana Ferrari and Martin Swany) AKP next week: - Write up requirements WP2 EGEE e2emonit Deployment Coordination ========================================= WP2.1 Build e2emonit RPMs from JRA4 repository ---------------------------------------------- BV last week: BV next week: - Install on marius - Fix RPMs/code further - Link RPMs, code and instructions from http://marianne.in2p3.fr/egee/network/download.shtml - New actions WP2.2 Create crontabs suitable for JRA4 testbed ----------------------------------------------- The topology is changing to "star" with one node (marius?) as the centre MBL last week: - Remove lxb2029 from crontabs and change host name as per BV's email. - Send current crontabs to BV by Thu 06 Oct. BV next week: - Fix crontabs as per actions. WP2.3 Test e2emonit RPMS and crontabs on JRA4 testbed ----------------------------------------------------- BV last week: - Announced new RPMs to npm-deploy list; included crontab instructions BV next week: - Fix, test and announce again as per actions WP2.5 Document installation of e2emonit RPMs and crontabs --------------------------------------------------------- BV last week: BV next week: - Add section with instructions for RPM-based install (before software install section). - Add new things as per actions list WP4 NMWG4RGMA ============= Focus now on tests, rather than further functionality. WP4.1 NMWG4RGMA Design ---------------------- AKP last week: - Designed the e2emonit part of the sw AKP next week: - NMWG4RGMA design past the basics for Pisa WP4.2 NMWG4RGMA Implementation ------------------------------ AKP last week: - Implemented the Object model for e2emonit - Implemented NMWG4RGMA for Pisa requirements AKP next week: - NMWG4RGMA completion past the basics for Pisa WP4.3 NMWG4RGMA Testing ----------------------- AKP next week: - Unit tests for NMWG4RGMA - Integration tests WP5 Diagnostic Tool =================== WP5.1 Document Design --------------------- ANJ next week: - Progress with design WP5.2 Implement additonal features ---------------------------------- ANJ last week: - Implement selected features from the MJRA4.5 leftovers list . Proper logging throughout . greying-out of statistic fields if 'raw' selected, . time information entry, three forms instead of one, . sorting of monitoring points (o/g) . LOW: handling of characteristics with more than one result ANJ next week: - Implement selected features from the MJRA4.5 leftovers list . sorting of monitoring points . matrix display . add max results . display correct time interval for statistical measurments . fix +ve/-ve labels . histogram display . parameter specification . multiple selection of statistics and metrics . LOW: filtering of monitoring points . LOW: graphical traceroute display . LOW: Allow multiple selections of NMPs. WP5.3 System test additional features ------------------------------------- ANJ last week: - System-test features implemented under 5.2 (o/g) ANJ next week: - System-test features implemented under 5.2 WP6 PerfSONAR TL ================ WP6.1 Document service design ----------------------------- Designs should be completed to a reasonable level such that someone familiar with the architecture and object model can understand how the TL works, but they still do not need to be highly detailed. LK next week: - Document service design WP7 e2emonit ============ It is a coincidence that e2emonit is on WP7 :-) ** This WP is of extremely lower priority than WP2 ** WP7.2 Implement traceroute tool for e2emonit -------------------------------------------- BV next week: - Modify traceroute to include RTT in R-GMA. Follow AKP-supplied rough format. WP7.3 Test traceroute tool for e2emonit --------------------------------------- BV next week: - Test as deveoping and also in the end WP7.5 Implement iperf wrapper for e2emonit ------------------------------------------ RS has limited availability for this work. RS next week: - Continue design and implementation WP8 Test Deployment =================== All ongoing during DJR4.5 Future work =========== This section describes items that should be included in the architecture document's future work section. Holidays/Absences ================= ANJ: 21, 31 October AKP: 12 Dec - 10 January KK: 21 Oct & 31 Oct - 15 Nov Important dates =============== 24/10/2005-28/10/2005 EGEE-4, Pisa Next meeting ============ Date: Wednesday 02 November 2005 14:00 BST/15:00 CEST Venue: CERN teleconference +41 22 767 7000 KK 20 Oct 2005
