Globus Toolkit® 3.2 Beta GRAM Release Notes

Improvements:

  • For the web service (WS) Managed Job Service (MJS), we improved the following:
  •  
    • Faults are more easily internationalized.
       
    • The local scheduler scripts provide better error messages.
       
    • Instances are deactivated during periods of inactivity in order to increase scalability by reducing memory consumption.
  • For the pre-WS JobManager, we applied a patch for bug 802 which enables an alternate method for job status detection for a user (this is used in Condor-G).
     
  • For both WS MJS and pre-WS JobManager, the local scheduler scripts
    have been improved to reduce the chance of errors due to NFS caching delays and increase scalability by reducing memory consumption.
     
  • The WS GRAM components are now IPV6 compliant.
     
  • For the managed-job-globusrun program, we added these options:

  •  
    • The -deleg [full | limited] option indicates limited or full proxy delegation.
       
    • The  -proxy [ <file path>] option selects credentials to use for authentication.

Important bug fixes:

  • For the WS MJS, we fixed:

  •  
    • UHE GRIM credential lifetime to obey user configuration.
       
    • job recovery problems.
       
  • For the WS GRAM components, we fixed UHE recovery and automatic shutdown (due to inactivity)
