AW: AW: [geclipse-dev] Transferring local inputfiles duringjob submission - changes in jdl
|
Hi Mariusz,
Your goal is to allow the user to specify local files when he submits a job. I just imagin how the user achieves this without the g-Eclipse platform. He writes an JDL (with sandbox for his local files) and uses a unix command to submit job, finished. His machine works as a client. Why can g-Eclipse not do the same thing?

Hello Jie!
> I think you do not need to change the JDL. The directory in Sandbox just tells the system where to find the files that have to be transfered to the CE. The files will be stored on the directory (on the CE) where the executable will be run. So the executable can find the input files.
I didn't think about solution, where Working Node transfer files from user's local machine. Thanks for this!
Yes - it's possible. We can add to JDL attribute InputSandboxBaseURI like:
InputSandboxBaseURI = { "mariusz.man.poznan.pl" }
It tells that all 'local' files (without server specified) should be staged-in by Worker Node from user's machine 'mariusz.man.poznan.pl'
It works fine in standard gLite ui.
In g-Eclipse it should also works, but not reliable.
Unfortunately in this solution, user's machine should work as gridFTP server. What means should be accessible from the Internet and has opened proper ports, with gridFTP server software installed.
If g-Eclipse wound transfer input files to WN sandbox by yourself, then it could run like standard client machine, not server.
That's why I would stay with transferring local files by g-Eclipse.
