Domenico Vicinanza November, 2006 Major work for EUMEDGRID; major changes in workplan ---------------------------------------------------------------- - Almost finalized the SAM Server installation for EUMEDGRID project hosted in Malta: https://sam.grid.cs.um.edu.mt/sam/sam.py The server part is working fine, still fixing some Oracle Express interaction problems with the client. - Regarding WISDOM (World-wide In Silico Docking On Malaria), one of the biomedical application which is under test by the EUMEDGRID community, within the "eumed" vo: -- successfully completed the registration of the 2422 files (description of chemical molecules required to run WISDOM) on the first of the two EUMEDGRID Storage Elements (namely the Malta one) who gave their availability to host the compound database (the other one will situated in Morocco). -- all the 2422 LFNs were successfully verified (the complete list is available at http://vicinanz.web.cern.ch/vicinanz/checklfn.txt). -- successfully installed the FLEXX (the docking program) files on the Malta SE, with all the required scripts. -- a gzipped tar file with all the compounds, configuration files, as well as all the (easily customizable) scripts prepared to automatically register them on a SE a nd check the consistency of LFNs, are available for other projects/people interested. -- As a result: 5 countries of the Mediterranean area joined the Malaria Data Challenge (October 1st, December 15th). Some data regarding this Data challange (from http://wisdom-dc-helsinki.healthgrid.org/): * Med Cuntries: Cyprus, Greece, Israel, Malta, Morocco * Number of docked compounds: 9,460,800 * In silico cost: 126,960 € * In vitro estimated cost: 4,730,400 € * CPU days consumed: 5,290 (equivalent 13 Years) Major work for <GD-OPS; GD-ITR>; major changes in workplan ---------------------------------------------------------------- - Finished the "Adding new tests and publishing test results with SAM" manual and published on the CERN LCG Grid Deployment tWiki page: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/LCG/LCGgliteTestWritingGuidelines (PDF availabe at: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/pub/LCG/LCGgliteTestWritingGuidelines/AddingSensors.pdf) - Writing and editing the "SAM Server Installation and Configuration with Oracle Express" manual for developers and site managers - Finalizing the integration of the WMS test written by Mario Reale/Gilber Grosdidier into the SAM environment - Supporting SAM installation, configuration and maintainance for EUMEDGRID - Start writing a SAM troubleshooting manual for common/recurrent errors - Attended the SA3 All Hands Meeting Major issues arising -------------------- - WISDOM is now under testing, after having finalized its startup within EUMED. It is a really challenging and complex testbed for the middleware infrastructure since each job is a bunch of 2422 long jobs whose jdl were created on the fly by a PERL script on the UI. Everithing is ready for a systematic study and test. Missing scripts to automatically copy, register, check files on the SE were prepared. - SAM installation with Oracle Express is now currently carried out with and without CERN only rpms and the Installation Manual is under debug. Major events attended (include links to event/presentation) --------------------- Attended the SA3 meeting at CERN (Nov. 27-29) http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=a063546 Plans to attend/organize major events (intra-EGEE and others) ------------------------------------------------------------- I am going to attend the EUMEDGRID PMB within the "1er Workshop & Tutorial EUMEDGRID à Marrakech" Marrakech, Morocco.
