Arbin, Check out presentation at http://www.ibm.com/ibm/files/E214972Z89042V83/VandenbergSession2Paper2.pdf . If you like, I can send you a copy of the full paper on using VCL as a way to have a SURAgrid VO Job-Submit client for accessing resources of the Open Science Grid.

Re: Other Uses for VCL
Andy mentioned the VCL running Elluminate Live in one context - we also are using the VCL with Elluminate in a Disaster Recovery mode in an interesting way. If the campus is closed for any reason [insert any disaster scenario here] and it is desired to continue teaching face to face courses (which are the majority of all of our courses) this can be done online. That is, this can be done online if we have a sufficient number of synchronous meeting servers available (we've been using Elluminate, but it could be any such software.) How many servers? Dozens, hundreds? It makes no financial sense to buy and install them and keep them there just in case. Here's where the VCL can take over and handle this - with one image of the server software in storage. When required, it can be loaded on any number of servers and the instructors and students can all be online from home and the courses continue. Of course, this use would displace some other uses - and that has to be arranged - but most of the student use for homework and projects is somewhat flexible - and likely can be displaced into the 10pm-10am lower use half of the day. The degree to which some uses are displaced to make place for others is a policy issue, and the VCL can be used for this. --henry On Wed, May 9, 2012 at 8:19 PM, Sanders, Arbin D asand...@nccu.edu wrote: All, ** ** I am apologize in advance for posting to both groups but I think each one has its own unique info and opinions.
