GOCDB Registration

Registration of service endpoints in GOCDB

Site endpoints must be registered in EGI Configuration Management Database (GOCDB). If you are creating a new site for your cloud services, check the PROC09 Resource Centre Registration and Certification procedure. Services can also coexist within an existing (grid) site.

Expected Services

These are the expected services for a working site:

If offering native OpenStack access (nova), register: org.openstack.nova for the Nova endpoint of the site. The endpoint URL must contain the Keystone v3 URL: https://hostname:port/url/v3. Set the Host DN so the cloud-info-provider can be enabled in the AMS.
If offering native OpenStack access (swift), register: org.openstack.swift for the swift endpoint of the site. The endpoint URL field must contain the Keystone v3 URL: https://hostname:port/url/v3.
eu.egi.cloud.accounting for the host sending the records to the accounting repository (executing SSM send).

Deprecated services for cloud providers:

Site-BDII. This service collects and publishes site's data for the Information System. Existing sites should already have this registered.
eu.egi.cloud.vm-metadata.vmcatcher for the VMI replication mechanism. Register here the host providing the replication (i.e. the host with cloudkeeper installation)
If offering OCCI interface, eu.egi.cloud.vm-management.occi for the OCCI endpoint offered by the site. The endpoint URL must follow this syntax:
https://hostname:port/?image=<image_name>&resource=<resource_name>
where <image_name> and <resource_name> cannot contain spaces. These attributes map to os_tpl and resource_tpl respectively and will be the ones used for monitoring purposes.
