Hi All,
after last weeks dteam meeting, I've taken an unscientific survey for
the London sites and here's the answers (Chris of QMUL fame is on
holiday):
- Imperial:
Tarball WNs (for convenience, up-and-downgrading is just so much
easier), but have root access to WNs. We will install glexec but not
as a crash test dummy (I hate messing with a production system).
Current setup is different accounts on different CEs submitting to the
same cluster (maximum independence of all CEs) and shared home dirs,
which is not compatible with Argus. This setup has served us well in
the past, and I'd be reluctant to give it up.
- UCL: Tarball at central facilities, glexec should be possible ("As
far as Legion is concerned we're a little concerned about the
security model but it shouldn't be impossible to fix.")
glexec at HEP no problem.
- RHUL: Will install glexec.
- Brunel: glexec OK, have a stab at installing it around April.
The enthusiasm for Argus seems to be still limited though.
