B2SAFE-B2STAGE-Training
Tutorial material on "deploying" B2SAFE and B2STAGE, and "using" the two services.
Deploy: The tutorial takes trainees through the steps how to build an infrastructure and steer data flows in this infrastructure shown in the Figure below. It assumes that trainees have sufficient resources to build the setup. They will need to prepare: three distinct (potentially virtualised) computational resources; each with 2 vCPU, 8GB memory, 100GB disk; running a Linux operating system (Ubuntu preferred); in which they have sudo access rights. Then, they will need to follow the instructions on the EUDAT Training GitHub repository. By following the B2SAFE-B2STAGE tutorials, they will become familiar with the installation, configuration and using scenarios for B2SAFE, B2STAGE and their underlying technologies, iRODS, gridFTP, the handle system and the EUDAT Data Storage Interface.
Use: For users who do not have access to computational resources or only wish to follow the scenarios of using the above-mentioned services, we provide a virtual machine setup in which they can steer data flows and familiarise themselves with the underlying technologies. In this setup they will learn about client-commands and the defined APIs for certain components of B2SAFE and B2STAGE.
Based on:
iRODS 4.1.6
B2SAFE 3.1.1
B2STAGE-GridFTP 1.81
