Hands on DIRAC user training
- Ricardo Graciani Diaz (University of Barcelona)
Description
Users, even from a single research community, have very different degrees of programming expertise. Providing a single access point to a distributed infrastructure that suits many communities is a big challenge. DIRAC Project provides a general-purpose framework for building distributed computing systems. There is a large interest from smaller user communities to have a simple tool for accessing grid and other types of distributed computing resources. "DIRAC as a Service" could play this role. To demonstrate accessing facilities of DIRAC, the present tutorial is focused in a portal job management by the final users. The tutorial has a brief introduction and previous dummy tests of every user environment. Then, two blocks of about 1H each, in the first one, participants will launch prepared jobs with previous existing templates, monitor the runnings, getting the outputs using output sandbox. The second block is about advancing job submission using parametric jobs and third-party storage, as well as retrieval of the outputs.
