TY - CONF AB - Abstract: Commercial Grid users demand for contractually fixed QoS levels. Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are powerful instruments for describing such contracts. SLA-aware resource management is the foundation for realizing SLA contracts within the Grid. OpenCCS is such an SLA-aware RMS, using transparent checkpointing to cope with resource outages. It generates a compatibility profile for each checkpoint dataset, so that the job can be resumed even on resources within the Grid. However, only a small number of Grid resources comply to such a profile. This paper describes the concept of virtual execution environments and how they increase the number of potential migration targets.The paper also describes how these virtual execution environments have been implemented within the OpenCCS resource management system.

Usage of Service Level Agreements in Grids Workshop held in conjunction with International Conference on Grid Computing TI - Implementing WS-Agreement in a Globus Toolkit 4.0 Environment ER - TY - CONF AB - Contractually fixed service quality levels are mandatory prerequisites for attracting the commercial user to Grid environments. Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are powerful instruments for describing obligations and expectations in such a business relationship. At the level of local resource management systems, checkpointing and restart is an important instrument for realizing fault tolerance and SLA awareness. This paper highlights the concepts of migrating such checkpoint datasets to achieve the goal of SLA compliant job execution.
