Description From Olle Mulmo 2005-10-19 13:20:33

Hi,

To simplify deployment, I want to have a common naming scheme of "Fork" vs
"Batch" factory types across a bunch of clusters. Also, I want a simple way in
which to make batch submission default. E.g., if people do "globusrun-ws -F
hostname" (not specifying -Ft) I want the "Fork" Factory type pointing to a
scheduler backend.

I tried shifting the etc/gram-service-*/ directories around but that doesn't work.

Wouldn't this be fairly easy to fix? Either

a) Make the naming of the etc/gram-service-*/ directories control what resource
key to register as

or

b) Add a configuration key in etc/gram-service-*/jndi-config.xml that defines
what resource key to register under. If this key is not specified, let the
default be the value of the "localResourceManager" configuration entry.

Actually, this came up in a different discussion and I was thinking an easier
way to do this would be to allow a null resource key that would default to a
particular resource manager according to a configuration in the
gram-service/jndi-config.xml.  I haven't tried this yet, but I think that should
be possible.  We would have to change globusrun-ws to not specify a default if
-Ft is omitted.

Peter's idea was implemented.  If no resource key is specified in a request to
the factory service, then the default factory resource specified in the
service's JNDI config will be used.
