2 DAC21 - Activity 2 updates: Multi-Rucios, Testing and Monitoring

Orateurs: Agustin Bruzzese (PIC), Rizart Dona (CERN), Rosie Bolton (Square Kilometre Array Organisation)

• Testing has been halted temporarily in the ESCAPE Rucio, multiple issues in the cluster, will start again ASAP
  • Dev work ongoing to integrate tokens in the gfal tests

3 DAC21 - Activity 3 updates: AAI, token integration, data-access ACLs

Orateurs: Andrea Ceccanti (INFN), Marek Szuba (GSI), Paul Millar (DESY)

• Token-based AuthN/Z support in the Datalake
  • The GFAL test suite is being modified to use tokens (this is on Rizart); soon we should have a dashboard that gives us visibility on the status of the Datalake
  • The ESCAPE token-based testsuite is being worked on (by Andrea & Federica at INFN) to implement fine-grained authz tests both with tokens and X.509. We plan to have the first report in a couple of weeks (i.e., at the next WP2 meeting). This will mainly test the compliance with the ESCAPE namespace authorization proposal

  • Aleem is looking into the token-based authnz problems at DESY dCache endpoint reported by Riccardo in the past weeks; the problem is reproduced and hopefully will be soon understood
• ESCAPE/FENIX interoperability
  • We had a couple of calls to understand how to integrate the ESCAPE Data Lake with FENIX storage, mostly focused on AAI/token flows. This will demonstrate how we can enstabilish trust between different infrastructures and exchange data in a secure way.
