They've been doing things like this at CERN for donkeys years - with the Andrew 
File System in the past.
Look for Ticket Granting Tickets.  Sorry - my memory is getting hazy.

Subject: [slurm-dev] NFSv4


Hi all,

I know this is a long-standing question, but thought it was worth asking.  I am 
in an environment that uses NFSv4, which obviously needs user credentials to 
grant access to filesystems.  Has anyone else tackled the issue of unattended 
batch jobs successfully?  I'm aware of AUKS.  Is there any other method anyone 
has used?

I'd be receptive to trying something like GlusterFS if it provided similar 
authentication and encryption measures.

Thanks
Mike
