Workload Management Flows
This page describes the high level flows which occur during the Workload Management related activities.
Job Submission Flow
- The user interface queries the BDII to determine the location of the RB and MyProxy server for this user/VO/site.
- From the UI, the user performs a proxy-init and a myproxy-init to store a copy of his certiticate on the MyProxy server.
- If an extended access rights are required, a woms-proxy-init may also be performed. This gets the specific roles.
- The user submits a job. This job includes the proxy details so that the ceriticate can be renewed.
- The RB receives the job. Using the grid matching, an appropriate CE is located and the job submitted to it.
- The CE submits the job to the local batch system and after a period of queuing, it will be run.
- At regular intervals, the RB requests an up to date certicate from the MyProxy server.
- The worker node will periodically obtain a renewed certificate from the CE which gets it from the RB.
