Re: [geclipse-dev] Transferring local input files during job submission - changes in jdl

Hello Ariel,

   InputSandbox = { <SOME-FILES> };
those files are uploaded from the local machine ... From there the CE fetches the files, and the WN fetches them from the CE (a gLite "optimization" ;-)

So, as I understand input files workflow is:
local machine -> CE -> WN

Attribute InputSandbox says which files should be copied between
local machine -> CE.

Because files on CE are stored in one folder (returned by getSandboxDestURI()), so I think that whole this folder is copied between CE -> WN, right?

If whole folder is copied, then entries to particular files, which I transferred to CE can be removed from JDL.

But...

i think you can leave in the JDL all entries which are not relevant to the current submission step, they shouldn't matter!

you says entries to transfered local files shouldn't break job execution, so I will leave these entries and we will see what will happen :-)


myJobID = jobRegister( myJDL, delegationId )
getTransferProtocols()
getSandboxDestURI( myJobID, choosenProtocol )
  [ Upload files here ]
jobStart( myJobID )

Exactly!


On the other hand, the file renaming when uploading using InputSandboxDestFileName doesn't seem to work at all for me from the command line (my UI in a glite 3.0 one, perhaps it would work in 3.1?)
the inputsandbox file is uploaded with the original name...

Good to know! I'll pay attention to it
