  2. Condor Reliability • Condor was designed for idle machines: • Reclaim, reboot, crash, out of memory... • Sounds much like the grid! • US-CMS testbed • Distributed ownership, control, and resources. • (War stories abound.) • Condor tools add controlled reliability. • Not absolute reliability, but: • A finite amount of retry. • A notification/recovery strategy. • Logging and book-keeping. • Known state after a failure.

  6. Condor-G deals with system failures, DAGMan deals with app and user failures. PRE and POST may be used to validate inputs and outputs. “Rescue DAG” describes what is left unexecuted. DAG nodes may themselves be DAGs. pre.pl C post.pl Directed Acyclic Graph Manager (DAGMan) A B D

  7. Standard shell scripts are very error-prone. FTSH adds time limits, retry, logging, and clean termination. “Exceptions for scripts:” unexpected errors cannot accidentally be ignored. try 10 times try for 15 minutes globus_url_copy A B end try for 1 hour run-simulation < B > C gzip < C >D end try for 15 minutes globus_url_copy D E end end Fault Tolerant Shell (FTSH)
