Condor Drmaa 1.0 Implementation – Experience Report
نویسنده
چکیده
This document describes experiences in the implementation of the Distributed Resource Management Application API (DRMAA) specification for the Condor workload management system. The document reports about issues that where identified during implementation and test of a DRMAA C library for Condor, which was evaluated successfully with the DRMAA working group compliance test for C bindings. We will give suggestions for improvement of the specification, mainly concerning readability of the GFD-R-P.022 specification document.

متن کاملImplementing privilege separation in the Condor system
In this paper we discuss, in some depth, our restricted implementation of privilege separation for the Condor system ([1], [2]) (in the Linux environment), and, in addition, we describe our proposed architecture for communication between privilege separated daemons in the Condor system. This architecture, if adopted, would allow each daemon to conform to principle of least privilege, thus signi...
