[Hiro Kishimoto]

Hi Dejan and Jun,

We hope to have next CDDLM and OGSA joint call on July 10
(3-5pm PT) and we really need your feedback and attendance.

You can find the latest materials from gridForge

Dejan and Jun: Can check the above CDL documents before the call?

> * CDL documents review
> 
>   Hiro produced and sent out new versions of the CDL documents. A few
>   remaining issues were discussed.
> 
>   - Location of application binary (to deploy from) and format. Agreed
>     that in general the client would not know these (but may know
>     under certain circumstances). So in general
>     - deployer (or perhaps developer) produces (original) CDL
>     - Client produces jsdl
>     - And a repository or some other internal component keeps track of
>       binaries and related information
>   - Permission and Owner of files.
>     - The binary does not have to be owned by the user running the
>       job; user just needs to be able to execute.
>       - Simplest case assume that the correct permissions/ownership
>         are set in the archive
>       - If the desire is to show it as an example in the CDL something
>         like "root.bin 755" or perhaps "blast.blast 755" or 555 is
>         appropriate.
>       - These are also affected by system policy.
>   - pre-script 
>     - Hiro has talked with Chris Smith and they have removed the
>       pre-script.
>     - Assume instead that the db is pre-formatted (perhaps by an
>       earlier user job) and that it can be made available by
>       requesting a specific filesystem be made available on the host.
>     - Hiro added 'database' filesystem.
> 
>   ACTION: Hiro to ask Jun and Dejan to check the CDL documents
>   ACTION: Hiro to also make any relevant updates to the Scenarios text
>   ACTION: Jun/Hiro to also prepare the post-deployment BLAST CDL
>           document
