any idea what dynamic discovery means? Can a resource add itself to a grid without requiring to modify any file. Ie a subscription model wherein the resource/grid will itself register itself with the the metascheduler when it wants to share. Then it can also remove itself when needed with NO changes required in its configuration. Maybe you can put in some service level agreements that a grid can remove itself only after giving a 1 hr notification to the metascheduler, but the addition-removal shld still happen dynamically!
Man u know what! this is what is I guess the WS agreement thingy....where there is negotiation of services.
But one more thign...abhi strike hua while writign!! with RIPS u can do this dynamic thing automatically. When the grid/resource wants to remove itself, it sets its scripts such that they return cpu ,mem availability of zero...
As on the script part this can be done by reading a simple global setting of say 'Expose=yes/no'...if it is yes it relays correct params else relays zeros thus in effect avoiding metascheduler to hence forth issue jobs to it.
Now this brings in additonal concerns...waht happens when a resource wants to free itself BUT it has jobs running. Can the jobs be transferred?
