Name:EGI-EUDAT integration pilot
Description:This software appliance allows to interact with the an EUDAT B2STAGE service from a EGI Federated Cloud VM
Abstract:The aim of the EGI-EUDAT pilot is to show how to connect data stored in the EUDAT CDI to the high throughput and cloud computing resources provided by EGI and the other way around.
This software appliance, based on the EGI Ubuntu 14 VA, is the first outcome of this pilot. Once started, the EGI FedCloud VM contains all software needed to upload and download dataset to/from any EUDAT instance.
Below the steps to properly use it:
- Get the authorisation to use one or more EUDAT B2Stage services
- Create a proxy in your EGI FedCloud UI
- Download the EGI-EUDAT-Integration.yml from the EGI Cloud Marketplace
- Open the EGI-EUDAT-Integration.yml contextualisation file and copy your SSH public key where indicated
- Get ’Site endpoint’, ’Template ID’ and ’OCCI ID’ from https://appdb.egi.eu/store/vappliance/egi.ubuntu.14.04 according to the site and the template you choose and your VO.
- Create a new EGI UBUNTU 14 VM from the image available in the Cloud Marketplace (https://appdb.egi.eu/store/vappliance/egi.ubuntu.14.04) and contextualise it with the EGI-EUDAT-Integration.yml contextualisation file:
”occi --endpoint <Site endpoint> --action create --resource compute --mixin <OCCI ID> -t occi.core.title=”<VM name>” --mixin <Template ID> user_data=”file://$PWD/<EGI-EUDAT-Integration.yml>” --voms --auth x509 --user-cred /tmp/x509up_u504
- Access the VM with SSH and your private key when available
- start to interact with an EUDAT B2STAGE service from the EGI FedCloud VM using globus-url-copy
