  1. SRM 2.2 Shaun de Witt (s.de.witt@rl.ac.uk)

  2. Introduction • Design • Dependencies • Set-up • Requirements • Support • Upcoming

  3. Design • Database Centric • Heavy re-use of CASTOR core components • Thread library in daemon • DLF for both • Request Flow depends on request type • not all functions hit SRM database… • …but all of them hit the CASTOR database

  4. Design • Secure • Uses GSI authentication • Cgsi plugin for gsoap 2.7 • VOMS ready • whatever that means • Server and Daemon multithreaded • configurable # threads • Throttled number of heavyweight threads • srmLs and possibly srmChangeSpaceForFiles

  5. Design Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  6. Data Flows • Two types of request in SRM spec • Synchronous • Client waits for response • Typically does not go through SRM database of daemon • Server talks directly to nameserver and/or stager • Asynchronous • Request stored in SRM database. • Associated with srmStatusOfXXX call

  7. DataFlows • Two Examples • Directory Function (sync) • e.g. srmMkdir, srmRmdir • PUT function (async) • srmPrepareToPut • srmStatusOfPutRequest • srmPutDone

  8. Directory Functions Server Clients

  9. Directory Functions Server CASTOR Nameserver Clients

  10. Directory Functions Server CASTOR Nameserver Clients

  11. Directory Functions Server CASTOR Nameserver Clients

  12. PUT operation (Prepare) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  13. PUT operation (Prepare) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  14. PUT operation (Prepare) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  15. PUT operation (Status) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  16. PUT operation (Status) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  17. PUT operation (Status) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  18. PUT operation (Status) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  19. PUT operation (Done) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  20. PUT operation (Done) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  21. PUT operation (Done) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  22. PUT operation (Done) Server Daemon CASTOR Clients SRM Database

  23. Dependencies • Since everything done using RPMs should be no trouble working then out  • CASTOR: • 2.1.1 or later • CGSI-GSOAP plug-in: • 2.7-1.1.14 or later • Globus Toolkit • vdt_globus_essentials-VDT1.2.2rh9_LCG-2 • VOMS • glite-security-voms-api-c-1.6.16 • Oracle • as per castor stager

  24. Dependencies • Server and Daemon in separate rpms • allows ease of deployment on separate nodes • Both have same dependencies • srmCopy is daemon side operation that needs security libraries

  25. Set-Up • Two configuration files • srm2.conf • general configuration • srm2_storagemap.conf • Maps storage areas (space tokens) to service class • Oracle • Script to create tables • Need to set up tnsnames, ORASTAGERCONFIG • Need to pre-populate storageArea table

  26. SRM2.conf • NOTIFYHOST • hostname where srmDaemon is running • NOTIFYPORT • port numbers which daemon is listening on • one for GET/PUT • one for COPY • PINTIME • Garbage Collection Weighting • Not implemented by default in CASTOR

  27. SRM2.conf • MAXLSRETURNS/MAXLSCOUNT • Max # returns from srmLs, and max allowable offset • prevents too heavy load on srm • SERVERTHREADS/LSTHREADS • SERVERTHREADS is max # of threads in srmServer • LSTHREADS is max # of Ls requests • avoids accidental DNS attacks

  28. SRM2.conf • Stager mapping • SRM <VO> <STAGE_HOST> • default: • SRM STAGE_HOST <blah> • For single castor instance sites

  29. SRM2.conf c2alice vo=alice c2cms vo=cms SRM c2lhcb vo=lhcb c2public no vo info

  30. srm2_storagemap.conf • Maps SRM retention policy/access latency to space token • hence to service class • Format • <VO> TAPENDISKM <service class>

  31. srm2_storagemap.conf ALICE TAPE1DISK1 alimdc ALICE TAPE1DISK0 wan ALICE TAPE0DISK1 default ALICE default default DEFAULT TAPE1DISK1 dteam DEFAULT TAPE1DISK0 dteam DEFAULT TAPE0DISK1 dteam DEFAULT default dteam

  32. srm2_storagemap.conf • NOTE • Disk0 => Garbage Collection • Disk1 => No Garbage Collection • Tape1 => Migration • Tape0 => No Migration • All should have default specified • Request with no space token or retentionPolicy info.

  33. Oracle Setup • Must initially set up service classes in CASTOR • Service class name reused • Populate StorageArea Table • by hand • VO production manager run srmReserveSpace, then update entry showing data available • preferred since gets association between storage area and VO for free

  34. Oracle Setup • StorageArea table: • spaceToken VARCHAR2(2048) • tokenDescription VARCHAR2(2048) • storageLifetime INTEGER • svcClass VARCHAR2(2048) • storageType NUMBER • id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY • srmUser INTEGER • parent INTEGER • storageStatus INTEGER

  35. Setup • ALICE example • Service Classes: • alimdc (Tape1Disk0) • recovery (Tape0Disk1) • wan (Tape1Disk0) • default (Tape1Disk0) • spare (Tape0Disk0)

  36. srm2.conf #ALICE TAPE1DISK1 not supported ALICE TAPE1DISK0 alimdc ALICE TAPE0DISK1 recovery ALICE default default

  37. Requirements • Suitable database and table space • Current at RAL and CERN SRM uses same database instance as stager • Unclear of load, may need its own oracle instance • Suitable port open • 8443 is normally used

  38. Differences • Space Reservation • Spaces are static • No user defined spaces • Only suitable VOMS role allowed to reserve space • Pinning • Pinning is advisory • Pinning represents GC weight

  39. Space reservation • Permitted user issues srmReserveSpace • Spacetoken assigned UUID, and set to space requested • UUID assigned initially since this help Tier-1 sites • Description can be meaningful • Alert sent to DLF • Manual update of space table once disks and pools are ready.

  40. Problems • Deployment problems • Related to cgsi plugin for gsoap • Changes in Standard • Things missed and inconsistencies • External pressure • Last three months – optimistically 25% of time

  41. Support • Supported by Giuseppe Lo Presti (CERN) and myself (RAL) • Details to be worked out • Informal e-mails should get reasonable response • but need to integrate into tracking s/w at CERN or RAL? • srm mailing list might be resurrected for support • On-site support for deployment at other sites to be discussed • Client tools being tested now.

  42. Upcoming • ChangeSpaceForFiles • Could be done wholly through SRM but easier internally to CASTOR • UpdateSpace • Needs reimplementing similar to ReserveSpace • Lots and lots of bug fixes • Finally getting lots of testers! • Per VO threading • To try to stop 1 VO killing everyone • 2 weeks intensive effort coming up (external influences permitting)
