In this Demo
Will show managing user requests
accessing files from multiple sites in a secure manner
selecting the “best” replica
participating institutions for file replicas
- SDSC: all the files for the demo on HPSS
- about 15 disjoint files on disk in each of 5 locations: ISI, ANL, NCAR, LBNL, LLNL
- some files are only on tape
- size of files 100-500 MBs
the entire dataset stored on HPSS at NERSC (LBNL)
- use HRM (via CORBA) to request staging of files to HRM’s disk
- use GSI-ftp (security enhanced FTP) to transfer the file after it is staged
