Title Current methods for negotiating firewalls for the Condor system
Contributors
Abstract The Condor system is a widely used specialized workload management system for compute-intensive jobs which is increasingly being used in UK academic environments to utilise the so-called idle time of workstations. Due to Condor's pattern of network communication there are a number of issues that arise when Condor is deployed across firewall or private network boundaries. In this paper we describe and analyse these issues, and outline the characteristics that we believe a general solution to these issues would have. We briefly describe some currently available solutions and workarounds, and then identify the most promising direction for future developments.
