  1. DAV support in DPM Alejandro Alvarez Ayllonon behalf of the LCGDM developer team IT/SDC 13/12/2013

  2. Overview • Current release • New headers • 3rd party copies • News on performance • Next release DAV support in DPM

  3. Current release • Current stable release is 0.13.0 • Released the 28th of October • Available in EPEL 5 and 6 • What’s new? • Want-Digest header support • X-Auth-Ip header support • Improved HTTP 3rd party copies DAV support in DPM

  4. Want-Digest header • RFC 3230 • The client can specify an additional header to request one (or several with or without priorities) checksums • Want-Digest: md5 • Want-Digest: md5;q=0.3 sha;q=1 • RFC doesn’t specify it, but adler32 supported too • Server answers with • Digest: md5=12345== • Digest is picked from DB is available, otherwise calculated on the fly by the disk node • Can be slow! DAV support in DPM

  5. X-Auth-Ip header • Can be used by trusted DNs • NsTrustedDNS configured in zlcgdm-dav.conf • In addition to X-Auth-Dn and X-Auth-Fqan[N] • Intended to allow “portals” on top of lcgdm-dav • i.e. A nice looking web application can request a token on behalf of the user, so then the user can do the PUT to the final location DAV support in DPM

  6. X-Auth-* GET /dpm/path/file X-Auth-Ip: 137.138.100.123 GET /myapp/some/file 137.138.100.123 302 Found Location: http://disk/pfn?token=abcdef 302 Found Location: http://disk/pfn?token=abcdef GET /pfn?token=abcdef DAV support in DPM

  7. 3rd party copies • Lots of work and refactoring of the 3rd party copy logic • Following agreement with dCache • For instance • Redirect mechanism to trigger delegation if supported, failure otherwise • Delegation only if needed • GridFTP-like performance markers DAV support in DPM

  8. 3rd party copies COPY/dpm/file Destination: https://destination 1 307 Temporary Redirect Location: http://disk/pfn?token=abcdef 2 4 PUT /destination Content-Length: 123 2 3 3 COPY /pfn?token=abcdef Destination: https://destination 307 Temporary Redirect Location: /pfn?token=abcdef X-Delegate-To: /delegation/endpoint 1 3 DAV support in DPM

  9. 3rd party copies • Client-side logic implemented in Davix • Used by gfal2-plugin-http • Testing of FTS3 for HTTP 3rd party copies ongoing • First functional, then stress tests DAV support in DPM

  10. Performance More comparisons between HTTP and XROOTD have been done to check the viability of HTTP as a every-day protocol The results are encouraging! DAV support in DPM

  11. Performance – Stress Test w. staging WebDAV XRootD DAV support in DPM

  12. Next release • It will be lcgdm-dav 0.14 • Few bug-fixes • Some needed for 3rd party copies • Broke with the latest GridSite based on CANL • Bigger buffer size for reading • Should improve performance • Global Access Service will be moved into dmlite-plugin-librarian • Is anyone actually using this? DAV support in DPM

  13. Next release • Working on HTTP as the DPM replication protocol • An administrator would do a PUT with a special flag to indicate “give me a new location where to replicate this file” • Pool and filesystem could be specified • The returned URL then can be used as destination of a COPY operation • Lcgdm-dav takes care of copying the file • No delegation needed, as the destination includes a token to authorize DAV support in DPM
