Hi Johan,
thanks for your reply.
The limitation with SGAS is that it provides information about completed
jobs only.
Therefore it is not useful for monitoring of running jobs, which is
usually desired.
Moreover information about jobs that failed is also not available as
well as the name of the executed program.
Hence SGAS is no option for us.

Hello,
The LUTS component of SGAS can provide some of the requested information.
SGAS also supports the OGF Usage Record format.
Please see http://www.globus.org/toolkit/docs/4.0/techpreview/sgas/
for more details.
best regards,

Hello,
In WS GRAM audit logging we are missing some important information.
That is:
o *global job id* (UUID format), which is returned from the host to
the client in the EPR file
o resource usage information as reported by the UNIX time command
consisting of:
(i) the elapsed *real time* between invocation and termination
(ii) the *user CPU time* (the sum of the tms_utime and tms_cutime
values in a struct tms as returned by times(2))
(iii) the *system CPU time* (the sum of the tms_stime and tms_cstime
values in a struct tms as returned by times(2))
o *end time* of the job, in the same format as creation_time
o name of submission* client*
o name of execution *host*
(o and maybe also the number of used CPUs)
Moreover, we would like to obtain the audit information in Usage
Record XML format developed by the Usage Record working group of the
open grid forum. (https://forge.gridforum.org/projects/ur-wg/,
https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/docman/do/listDocuments/projects.ur-wg/docman.root
).
The information could be written to an XML file for each job. A
natural name would be "UUID.ur".
We would like to ask for an implementation of these features since we
would like to use audit logging also for monitoring of usage statistics.
I have filed two feature request on this:
http://bugzilla.globus.org/globus/show_bug.cgi?id=5864
http://bugzilla.globus.org/globus/show_bug.cgi?id=5865
Best regards
Frank
