Discussed topics with main outcomes:
VO:
- Simplified AUP for this VO (A: Gergely)
- Check AUP page with SPG members (A: Gergely)
- Site requirements:
* Security policy:
https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Long-tail_of_science#Proposed_Security_Policy_for_the_Long-tail_platform
* Configure per-user subproxy - this page needs to be restructured and moved to another namespace:
https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Fedcloud-tf:WorkGroups:Federated_AAI:per-user_sub-proxy (A: Peter-Diego)
* Middleware support: OS can already do; ON to check (A: Diego); CREAM lcmaps already do (was developed by Mischa)
* Note that all users of the per-user robot will have the same role on the sites
Resource allocation and accounting:
- Support for this is included in the per-user subproxy setup
- VO Manager can check accounting stats of individual user accounts in Accounting portal
* There is no API yet to read this kind of data (A: Diego to check with Ivan)
* If this won't be available on time: Manual monitoring and suspending - who is the operator? We need to specify this
- All sites will be in a single VO. User will be able to access anything, restrictions may be imposed by the science gateways - e.g. certain use cases need/fit better to grid others to cloud, some to both.
- The user can choose from 4 types of resources, then granted with these:
* HTC compute; HTC storage; Cloud compute; cloud storage
- The information about the user's allocation remains in the URP (ie. not tranferred even to the gateways)
* The Accounting portal cannot provide the user's own consumption to the user (VO member view)
* Diego to talk to Ivan. Maybe a custom feed of data about this VO to the URP? Secret URL to query such data may be already there? - info from Tomasz. Also ask Accounting portal to accept Edugain login
User Registration Portal:
- Landing page is already in place:
http://access.egi.eu/
* Login with SSO or Social login. Edugain is future work.
- Functionality is mostly working. Known limitation:
* Currently only Tomasz has the supporter role. Need to implement supporter as a new role.
* At the moment Tomasz can add supporters manually and will start work on proper implementation (A: Tomasz)
* Test by LToS partners can start in about one week (after changes in text)
Gateway integration:
- New ticket is created for WSPGRADE - Unity integration
* What plugin should a Liferay gateway use to connect to Unity? (It's an OpenID connect)
* Clarify this on the Wiki page (A: Marco, Zoltan):
https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Long-tail_of_science#Connecting_the_SG.C2.A0with_the_User_Registration_Portal
- Write short intro text (for the URP front page) and prepare user manual for platform users (A: Gateway providers)
Wiki:
- Restructuring started to move towards a 'product website' from a project website:
https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Long-tail_of_science
Bari:
- The platform should be announced here. Depending on the status we will decide about the level of announcement here:
* Open for users + NGI support teams + Resource providers --> Ideal
* Open for early adopter users (Because we have limited capacity in the VO)
* Open for resource providers (because we could not get resources at all)
- Gergely to take over the session from Peter.
* The session currently includes two talks related to the platform. Review these as we move closer to the event. Suggestion: 1 talk overview (Gergely); 1-1 short talks about connected gateways
* The session includes two talks from Genevieve. Ask her to merge content into 1 talk to save time for the lont-tail platform. (A: Gergely)
- Demo session in exhibition booth:
* We have not heard back about this yet
Deliverable:
- The platform is a formal deliverable at the end of December. The software and related document should go to review at the end of November. Achievable.
Next meeting:
- Doodle about next meeting: 21st of Oct (A: Gergely)
