[ogsa-hpcp-wg] Some Question from EGEE project

[Glenn Wasson]

Alessandro,

 

            Let me take a shot at your questions and others can chime in if
they want.

 

1)       I'm not sure that the WS-Addressing issue was resolved. Some
services require WSA headers, some do not. Of course, all services use EPRs
in message bodies to refer to jobs, but I don't think that's what you are
asking. I guess there are also some clients that automatically put WSA info
in the headers of their outgoing messages. However, if your service doesn't
actually need this info, I guess you can ignore it. The security story in
general is that clients will communicate with services using https and
WS-Security UsernameTokens will be used (each service and/or user has their
own username and password).

2)       the details of the demo are still be worked out

3)       I'm not sure exactly which version of the WSDL we want to use. The
last version that Peter sent out (that had the minOccurs=0 changes in it) is
the one I intend to use, but I don't know if other changes will occur
between now and SC. These changes are really just corrections to the WSDL
and so I suspect everyone will want to use the latest. Perhaps on the call
this Friday, we can discuss when to "hold" the WSDL.

4)       I use doc/literal. I believe everyone else I've interop'd with so
far does too. Anyone using something else?

 

Glenn

Subject: [ogsa-hpcp-wg] Some Question from EGEE project

 

Hi all,
After a brief discussion with Steven Newhouse at EGEE06, we decided to try
and participate in the SC06 interoperability DEMO with two more services
coming from the european project EGEE (http://www.eu-egee.org/): CREAM &
WMPROXY: those WS-based services have been working for several months now;
over the last few weeks we have been trying to integrate our work with BES
and JSDL implementation.

Yet we still have some unsolved questions, I hope you would be so kind to
answer them:

1) WS-Addressing and WS-Security
According to what I read, the client will send SOAP messages including
WS-addressing headers while the server might not support WS-Addressing 
at all and just ignore WS-addressing headers, is that correct?
What about WS-security on server side? Is that a suggestion rather than a
to-be-implemented feature?

2) Is there available any [template] client that will be used to call
services during the demo?
How will be the demo structured? Which is the client used for querying the
service?

3) Can we consider the BES-factory wsdl as definitive? 
There had been some complains during the week, yet only minimal parts
aparently are going to be changed. 
Can we assume the last WSDL is the one that will be used for the demo?

4) Binding and style/encoding
Regarding the Binding, are we free to use both DOCUMENT/LITERAL and 
RPC/LITERAL or is there some restriction?



cheers,
Alessandro
