-
- Batch - Deploy Prototype RCE Virtual Public Cloud Extension for batch jobs in the AWS(Amazon) Environment
- Non-Batch - Deploy Prototype RCE Virtual Public Cloud Extension for non-batch jobs in the AWS(Amazon) Environment

- Ongoing – System Evaluation, Bug Fixes, Adjustments, Performance Monitoring
- Reporting Period Updates:
- Configured and Tested Mock Condor Master/Worker instances in public EC2
- Tested Condor Worker AMI – reported bugs/requirements for next version
- Identified requirements for Condor Worker node bootstrap
- Executed trivial Condor jobs on local Master and AWS VPC based Worker nodes
- Execution of common Condor jobs requires VPC instances to automatically mount to local NFS disk
- Condor Worker node bootstrap needs to be dynamically loaded so we can utilize the existing AMI
- Learning about how the existing architecture might adapt to supporting a local Open Stack implementation
- Open issues, questions, or needs
- Acquiring an AWS Support Contract will be required soon
