LOCKSS Software

Source

Private LOCKSS Network

CLOCKSS

File System

Primary file system distribution of LOCKSS content.

  • /etc/lockss
  • /home/lockss
  • /usr/share/lockss
  • /var/log/lockss

In the file /etc/lockss/config.dat, the LOCKSS_DISK_PATHS variable enumerates the available disks.

  • /cache0/gamma
  • /cache1/gamma
  • /cache2/gamma
  • /cache3/gamma

Cache storage /cache0/gamma/cache/m/bpldb.bplonline.org/http/adpn/load/Cartography/000400-000599/000404/tif/000404.tif/

In the current 1.x implementation of LOCKSS, there is a direct relationship between the access URL and the file system organization of the cached data.


Where are the bytes of this tif file? 

/cache0/gamma/cache/m/bpldb.bplonline.org/http/adpn/load/Cartography/000400-000599/000404/tif/000404.tif/#content/current

current is a raw byte file. If the content is binary, the file is binary. If the content is text, the file is text. In order to understand the type of file current is you should examine current.props.

/cache0/gamma/cache/m/bpldb.bplonline.org/http/adpn/load/Cartography/000400-000599/000404/tif/000404.tif/#content/current.props describes the bytes (HTTP headers, LOCKSS specific headers)

Revisions

Each revision is stored with a full copy of the bytes. current and current.props are renamed to 1 and 1.props. Each revision can always be retrieved. Only the `current` file participates in preservation activities.

See #Content Crawler and Revisions to understand how LOCKSS Web crawler handles files that differ in metadata but are identical.

Starting and Stopping the LOCKSS daemon

  • /etc/init.d/lockss start
  • /etc/init.d/lockss stop
  • /etc/init.d/lockss restart

CentOS 7 Version

  • systemctl enable lockss
  • systemctl start lockss
  • systemctl restart lockss
  • systemctl stop lockss

Log Rotate

Logs are in /var/log/lockss 

logrotate /etc/logrotate.d/lockss

Configuration Files

Primary Configuration files

  • http://props.lockss.org:8001/adpn/lockss.xml
  • /etc/lockss/config.dat
  • /home/lockss/local.txt
  • /cache0/gamma/config/expert_config.txt
  • /cache0/gamma/config/au.txt

Additional Configuration files

  • /cache0/gamma/config/ui_ip_access.txt
  • /cache0/gamma/config/proxy_ip_access.txt
  • /cache0/gamma/config/content_servers_config.txt

Configuration parameters are listed

Debug options from Logger.java

  • info -- default generally,
  • debug -- debugging messages, sparse
  • debug1 -- debugging messages
  • debug2 -- Detailed debugging that would not produce a ridiculous amount of output if it were enabled system-wide.
  • debug3 -- Debugging messages that produce more output than would be reasonable if this level were enabled system-wide. (e.g. messages in inner loops, or per-file, per-hash step, etc.)

Examples of use of log level in Expert Config 

org.lockss.log.BaseCrawler.level = info
org.lockss.log.CrawlerImpl.level = info
org.lockss.log.BlockTally.level = info
org.lockss.log.V3PollerStatus.level = debug
org.lockss.log.PlatformInfo.level = debug2

User Configuration

Enable accounts administration to add multiple users with specific permissions. 

org.lockss.accounts.enabled = [false]

User Roles

  • User Admin Role User may configure admin access (add/delete/modify users, set admin access list)
  • Content Admin Role User may configure content access (set content access list)
  • AU Admin Role User may change AU configuration (add/delete content)
  • Access Content Role User may access content
  • Debug Role

A user with no discretely assigned roles has read access to the daemon status tables.

User authentication type parameter, choose between Basic (Web server HTTP auth) and Form. Use of Form provides a sign out utility via button click. 

org.lockss.accounts.policy = [(null)] [Basic,Form,SSL,LC]

Title List

The default title lists for available AUs is provided by LOCKSS in http://props.lockss.org:8001/adpn/lockss.xml. The Add/Remove title lists in the Web admin are populated from titledb.xml. 

<property name="titleDbs">
 <list>
  <value>http://props.lockss.org:8001/adpn/titledb/titledb.xml</value>
 </list>
</property>

titledb.xml uses the same element name at different nesting levels. 

<lockss-config>
 <property name="org.lockss.titleSet">
  <property name="Birmingham Public Library">
   <property name="name" value="All Birmingham Public Library AUs" />
   <property name="class" value="xpath" />
   <property name="xpath" value="[attributes/publisher='Birmingham Public Library']" />

 </property>
</lockss-config>

Partitioning Cache Data

It is possible to overwrite the default configuration using a local parameter org.lockss.titleDbs. This enables networks to create a modified title list that can be customized to each node. Intelligent data partitions can be defined and redefined centrally. 

org.lockss.titleDbs = http://bpldb.bplonline.org/etc/adpn/titledb-local.xml

or can be set in union with the centralized title list with local parameter 

org.lockss.userTitleDbs = http://bpldb.bplonline.org/etc/adpn/titledb-local.xml

See Partitioning Cache Data for a more complete discussion. In brief, data partitioning requires parsing of LOCKSS title list, persistent storage for definitions of responsibility of distributed data, and mechanisms to redefine and modify responsibilities when network topography changes.

Title URL Awareness

A partitioned cache data set could introduce problems when serving content from the LOCKSS node. The direct proxy method (either content_proxy or audit_proxy) queries the LOCKSS node directly. It is feasible to introduce an intermediary service such as Squid Proxy and enable #ICP_Server on the LOCKSS nodes. The Squid Proxy would then serve as the single access point (or points if request load is heavy) for all of the caches.

Squid Proxy

Web Crawler

There are two distinct crawlers in LOCKSS: the new content crawler and repair crawler. The new content crawler is the primary method of inserting data in the cache and the crawler will only start at the publisher's content staging area as defined in the AU start URL settings. The repair crawler, depending on configuration parameters, can repair from the publisher and/or peer nodes. The Web crawler supports HTTP and HTTPS URL protocols.

Plugins

Plugins can be retrieved from the LOCKSS node or SourceForge http://lockss.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/lockss/lockss-daemon/plugins/src/

Plugins can be extended by creating references to Java classes in the plugin definition. Some examples are below. See Highwire Press plugin definition for a more complete demonstration. 

<entry>
 <string>text/html_filter_factory</string>
 <string>org.bplonline.adpn.BaseHtmlFilterFactory</string>
</entry>
<entry>
 <string>au_url_normalizer</string>
 <string>org.bplonline.adpn.BaseUrlNormalizer</string>
</entry>

Example plugin : BirminghamPublicLibraryBasePlugin.xml

Plugin API

Plugin Specification (limited document).

Interface to extend generic plugin-based functions (UrlCacher, UrlComparator) for PLN specific activities.

Signing Plugins

A plugin is typically a signed jar that contains the XML plugin definition and additional Java class files that extend the base functionality.

Helpful tools are packaged with the LOCKSS source under test/scripts.

genkey generates a user Java keystore. jarplugin can package multiple paths into a single tar and jar the resulting file. signplugin signs the jar with the applied keystore. Untested but it might be possible to use genplugin to iterate all of these actions from one call.

Keystores can be included in the daemon by including the parameter org.lockss.plugin.userKeystore.location.


Crawl Windows

Crawl windows can be set to control when the LOCKSS daemon should start and end crawls. The LOCKSS Daemon will disallow crawls when outside of the crawl window. The LOCKSS Daemon will also abort in-progress crawls that overrun the window. For tight windows, examine the org.lockss.crawler.startCrawlsInterval parameter and the au_def_pause_time in the plugin definition. 

<entry>
  <string>au_crawlwindow_ser</string>
  <org.lockss.daemon.CrawlWindows-Interval>
      <start>
        
        <timezone>America/Chicago</timezone>
      </start>
     <end>
        
        <timezone>America/Chicago</timezone>
     </end>
     <fieldMask>3</fieldMask>
     <timeZoneId>US/Central</timeZoneId>
  </org.lockss.daemon.CrawlWindows-Interval>
 </entry>

Crawl Proxy

Title list parameters specifying a alternative URL. 

<property name="param.98">
  <property name="key" value="crawl_proxy" />
  <property name="value" value="reingest1.clockss.org:8082" />
</property>

This method proxies an AU start URL through crawl_proxy parameter and enables FollowLinkCrawler to gather data from a node, provided the proxy node is serving content. The serving proxy comprehends the nature of the incoming request to audit proxy and returns cached URLs.

A factor to consider is that this should probably be a one time new content crawl for an uncached AU, otherwise there is potential for throwing V3 Poll state out of quorum. Also, title list modification by adding crawl_proxy parameter should be limited to the peer node needing content. Adding crawl_proxy parameter to a title list that is consumed by all nodes could introduce errors with quorum and polling by unintended node to node new content crawling.

New Content Crawler

NewContentCrawler.java

The new content crawler will only retrieve data from the publisher's content staging area. It will follow links and discover new content.

Repair Crawler

RepairCrawler.java

Repair crawler modes

  1. repair from other caches only
  2. repair from publisher only
  3. repair from other caches first. If repair fails in trying a certain number of caches, it will try repair from the publisher
  4. repair from publisher first. If repair fails, it will try repair from other caches

Parameters to set modes, 

org.lockss.crawler.fetch_from_other_caches_only   [false] 
  Sets this to true in properties and repair will be done from other caches only 
org.lockss.crawler.fetch_from_publisher_only   [true] 
  Sets this to true in properties and repair will be done from publisher only
org.lockss.crawler.num_retries_from_caches   [5] 
  Sets this in properties to limit the number of caches it will try in repair mode 1,3 and 4.

The repair crawler must be called with a list of specific URLs. The crawler does not discover new content by following links.

The repair crawler is called from the V3 Poller after a tallying votes and identifying repairable URLs. The repair crawler can repair from publisher or peer. The publisher repair follows the standard Web request as in new content crawl.

Peer repair utilizes V3 LCAP messaging protocol (see getRepairDataInputStream() in V3LcapMessage.java. The V3 Poller event handleReceiveRepair() in PollerActions.java. Repairs are queued in object of class def RepairQueue which is instantiated after vote tallying in a V3 Poll. See requestRepair() and repairIfNeeded() generally called by methods such as tallyVoterUrl() or tallyPollerUrl() in V3Poller.java.

Repairs can be made with the V3 LCAP messaging protocol but it seems this is only in play when a V3 Poll is completed on the peer. The peer needs the AU to start and complete a poll. I don't think that the repair crawler, in default usage, populates a new node with peer cache data utilizing the V3 Poll and V3 LCAP messaging protocol.

Content Crawler and Revisions

BaseUrlCacher.java

Depending on AU and plugin definitions, the repository manager will initiate a new content crawl for an existing AU. When examining previously crawled URLs, the LOCKSS crawler does not request a full copy of the remote data. The LOCKSS crawler retrieves the last modified date of the cached content in stored metadata (current.props) and sends that date as an HTTP header (If-Modified-Since) to the remote server. The remote server checks file last modified date against the LOCKSS request HTTP header data and responds with 304 (not-modified) when the file has not changed. In the event the remote server determines the file last modified date is newer than LOCKSS request HTTP header date, the remote server sends the content.

According to RepositoryNodeImpl.java (see sealNewVersion()), the LOCKSS repository manager only saves crawler content in the cache as a revision if the files are not identical. If files are identical but last modified time is different, the repository manager renames the existing current.props to current.props-[LAST MODIFIED DATE] and the most recent file metadata is saved into current.props. current isn't touched.

File Equality

LOCKSS uses a custom function to determine file equality. isContentEqual is called in the sealNewVersion method. 

FileUtil.isContentEqual(currentCacheFile, tempCacheFile)

Below is a snippet of the file stream compare in FileUtil.java 

byte[] bytes1 = new byte[FILE_CHUNK_SIZE];
byte[] bytes2 = new byte[FILE_CHUNK_SIZE];
while (true) {
 int bytesRead1 = fis1.read(bytes1);
 int bytesRead2 = fis2.read(bytes2);

 if (bytesRead1 != bytesRead2) {
   // shouldn't really happen, since lengths are equal
   return false;
 }
...

File Validation (Staged)

The publisher staging area has privileged rights to write new content to the LOCKSS cache nodes when the LOCKSS Web crawler discovers new or different content. In the case of a PLN, the publisher staging area could simply be a commodity storage device with a Web interface and no revision control or bit-checking. While the LOCKSS repository manager keeps previous versions of documents, the polling mechanism only actively maintains the current file.

A proposal to maintain file authority and mitigate the ramifications of corruption or accidental modification of files on the content staging area would be to include checksums with the staged file. The Plugin/AU definition could inform the repository manager whether to look for authenticity checksums and what hashing algorithm was used (SHA1,MD5). In the event a checksum does not match, the repository manager should throw a crawl error. In addition the Plugin/AU definition should be extended to send alerts to the publisher on crawl errors. Hash checks could be referenced in RepositoryNodeImpl sealNewVesion.

AU definition keys example: 

<au_hash_check>    true   </au_hash_check>  (default false)
<au_hash_check_file_types>    tif, jpg, pdf </au_hash_check_file_types> (iterated file types)
<au_hash_check_algorithm>  MD5 </au_hash_check_algorithm> [SHA1,MD5]
<au_hash_check_extenstion>  md5 </au_hash_check_extension> (string concatenate to Node URL)

The 000404.tif.md5 could itself become a node in the cache, but the check should be made to the content staging area or the .md5 file should be cached first. Mismatched hash checks should result in a logged crawl error and the new revision discarded.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Fixity

Alerter

Alert.java contains a auAlert() method. It should be fairly trivial to extend this method to pull additional au parameters such as publisher alert email (BaseArchivalUnit.java) 

// Factories
  /**
   * Create an AU-specific alert.
   * @param prototype the prototype Alert
   * @param au the au
   * @return a new Alert instance
   */
  public static Alert auAlert(Alert prototype, ArchivalUnit au) {
    Alert res = new Alert(prototype);
    res.setAttribute(ATTR_IS_CONTENT, true);
    if (au != null) {
      res.setAttribute(ATTR_AUID, au.getAuId());
      res.setAttribute(ATTR_AU_NAME, au.getName());
//     res.setAttribute(ATTR_AU_TITLE, au.getJournalTitle());
    }
    return res;
  }

Hasher

Remote system can pull hash data for entire AUs or specific URLs. Would require a list of URLs to check.

ICP Server

Internet Cache Protocol (RFC 2186). See also Application of Internet Cache Protocol (RFC 2187).

Page 2 of RFC 2187

The essential difference between a parent and sibling is that a "neighbor hit" may be fetched from either one, but a "neighbor miss" may NOT be fetched from a sibling. In other words, in a sibling relationship, a cache can only ask to retrieve objects that the sibling already has cached, whereas the same cache can ask a parent to retrieve any object regardless of whether or not it is cached.

Establishing trusted node to elevate to parent? On per AU basis? Global elevation would be problematic.

"The ICP server responds to queries sent by other proxies and caches to let them know if this LOCKSS box has the content they are looking for. This is useful if you are integrating this box into an existing network structure with other proxies and caches that support ICP."

ICP Manager

RFC 2187 

5.2.3.  ICP_OP_HIT

   If the cache reaches this point without already matching one of the
   previous  opcodes, it means the request is allowed and we must
   determine if it will be HIT or MISS, so we check if the URL exists in
   the local cache.  If so, and if the cached entry is fresh for at
   least the next 30 seconds, we can return an ICP_OP_HIT message.  The
   stale/fresh determination uses the local refresh (or TTL) rules.

   Note that a race condition exists for ICP_OP_HIT replies to sibling
   peers.  The ICP_OP_HIT means that a subsequent HTTP request for the
   named URL would result in a cache hit.  We assume that the HTTP
   request will come very quickly after the ICP_OP_HIT.  However, there
   is a slight chance that the object might be purged from this cache
   before the HTTP request is received.  If this happens, and the
   replying peer has applied Squid's `miss_access' configuration then
   the user will receive a very confusing access denied message.

5.2.3.1.  ICP_OP_HIT_OBJ

   Before returning the ICP_OP_HIT message, we see if we can send an
   ICP_OP_HIT_OBJ message instead.  We can use ICP_OP_HIT_OBJ if:

   o    The ICP_OP_QUERY message had the ICP_FLAG_HIT_OBJ flag set.
   o    The entire object (plus URL) will fit in an ICP message.  The
        maximum ICP message size is 16 Kbytes, but an application may
        choose to set a smaller maximum value for ICP_OP_HIT_OBJ
        replies.

   Normally ICP replies are sent immediately after the query is
   received, but the ICP_OP_HIT_OBJ message cannot be sent until the
   object data is available to copy into the reply message.  For Squid
   and Harvest this means the object must be "swapped in" from disk if
   it is not already in memory.  Therefore, on average, an
   ICP_OP_HIT_OBJ reply will have higher latency than ICP_OP_HIT.

IcpManager.java 

 /**
   * <p>Processes an incoming ICP message.</p>
   * @param message An incoming message.
   */
  protected void processMessage(IcpMessage message) {
    if (message.getOpcode() == IcpMessage.ICP_OP_QUERY) {
      IcpMessage response;

      try {
        // Prepare response
        if (!proxyManager.isIpAuthorized(message.getUdpAddress().getHostAddress())) {
          logger.debug2("processMessage: DENIED");
          response = message.makeDenied();
        }
        else {
          String urlString = message.getPayloadUrl();
          CachedUrl cu = pluginManager.findCachedUrl(urlString);
          if (cu != null && cu.hasContent() && !isClockssUnsubscribed(cu)) {
            logger.debug2("processMessage: HIT");
            response = message.makeHit();
          }
          else {
            logger.debug2("processMessage: MISS_NOFETCH");
            response = message.makeMissNoFetch();
          }
	  AuUtil.safeRelease(cu);
        }
      }
      catch (IcpException ipe) {
        logger.debug2("processMessage: ERR", ipe);
        try {
          response = message.makeError();
        }
        catch (IcpException ipe2) {
          logger.debug2("processMessage: double exception", ipe2);
          return; // abort
        }
      }

Manipulating the Cache

Exporting Content

The LOCKSS repository manager provides a simple HTTP-based download of any content type on the LOCKSS server by linking, copying or moving the data to /cache0/gamma/tmp/export/ and visiting Web admin http://bpl-adpnet.jclc.org:8081/ExportContent

/cache0/gamma/tmp/export/ is emptied on daemon restart, unless file ownership is changed from LOCKSS.

Deleting Stale AUs

Repositories marked as 'Deleted' in the RepositoryTable can be removed from the cache by deleting the appropriate directory (i.e. /cache0/gamma/cache/f). AUs not marked as deleted should be removed through the Web UI first or, untested, by removing the appropriates lines from /cache0/gamma/config/au.txt. Then remove the directory in the cache.

Restart the daemon.

Moving AUs, Same Disk

The daemon fills in missing directories when adding AUs so renaming in a directory is not strictly necessary. Nevertheless, cache directories are incremented 'a-z' then 'a[a-z]', 'b[a-z]' etc. An AU is not referenced by a specific cache directory location. An AU is referenced by indicating the disk repository in au.txt (ie. local\:/cache0/gamma NOT local\:/cache0/gamma/f). To move an AU to a new location on the same disk, simply rename the directory.

Consider the following scenario, AUs exist at 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'. After deleting AUs 'c' and 'd', cache/gamma looks like 'a', 'b', 'e'. I can rename directory 'e' to 'c' and the next AU added will be appropriately named 'd'.

Restart the daemon.

n.b. Wait until active crawls are completed before renaming directories, otherwise crawler will use initial directories

Moving AUs, Different Disk

Cache directories are incremented "a-z" then "a[a-z]", "b[a-z]" etc. first identify the next directory name on the new disk.

Locate and modify the appropriate lines defining the AU in /cache0/gamma/config/au.txt (e.g. repository=local\:/cache1/gamma changes to local\:/cache2/gamma). Move the directory from the original to the new disk (e.g. rsync -a --progress --removes-source-files /cache1/gamma/cache/g /cache2/gamma/cache/gj)


Restart the daemon.

Copying AUs, Different Nodes

The repository manager of a node will not initiate a new content crawl to a peer node, and new content crawls are generally recognized as the only way to populate a node's cache. It is possible to copy a file system from on node and transfer it to another. Once the node is populated with data and the repository manager is coerced into believing a new content crawl was completed successfully, the repository manager will engage in normal peer polling for the archival unit. Modification or addition of data to the archival unit still requires the use of the publisher's content staging area with the original URL structure.

Understand File System Organization

File system organization in the cache is system dependent only to a depth of 4 from the root. After that point, the file system organization is dependent on the original access URL for the archival unit data.

It is possible to populate a new node using a copy of the file system of a peer node. The peer node should have indicated a high-reliability factor of the cached data (100% agreement in a recent poll would be good). (I am shortcutting some steps under the assumption that the archival unit is in the add titles list of the LOCKSS Web UI, otherwise one would have to manually edit the au.txt file and create directories in the cache.) 

/cache0/gamma/cache/m/bpldb.bplonline.org/http/adpn/load/Cartography/000400-000599/000404/tif/000404.tif/

When the archival unit is added to the node through the Web UI, the repository manager creates the next available directory based on the volume selected. (The base directory for the archival unit truncates at /cache0/gamma/cache/m/, the extra path in the example is to show URL structure dependence). The repository manager will then initiate a new content crawl to the start URL defined in the AU. Since the publisher has vacated the content staging area, the crawl will result in a 404 or other HTTP error. The changes to au.txt and creation of the /m/ directory in the file system are not rolled back.

Pack the AU

A tarred (compressed) package of an archival unit should be made on the peer node with content. For this example, the peer node had the archival unit in the file system at /cache2/gamma/cache/bj/. 

tar -zpcvf /cache0/gamma/tmp/export/au_to_transfer.tar.gz /cache2/gamma/cache/bj/

There are a number of methods of exporting the content from the LOCKSS node, including FTP, but for this example I am utilizing the built-in HTTP export. After this command is executed, there will be a link called "au_to_transfer.tar.gz" in the ExportContent page of the LOCKSS Web UI.

Unpack the AU

The present working directory at this point should be /cache0/gamma/cache/. The appropriate command 

tar -xvzf /path/to/au_to_transfer.tar.gz -C m --strip-components=4 --exclude \#agreement --exclude \#no_au_peers --exclude \#id_agreement.xml --exclude \#node_props --exclude \#au_id_file

Finish Up

The #node_props files will be generated at the LOCKSS daemon restart, which should be done at this time. By preserving the files #au_state.xml and #nodestate.xml, the repository manager thinks that a new content crawl has already been completed. A manually initiated V3 Poll on the archival unit should return appropriate URL agreement levels. The new LOCKSS node should now engage in normal content polling with the other peers.

Polling introductions by version Release Notes

LOCKSS Daemon 1.62.4

  • Initial implementation of "local" polls, which use local hashes to more quickly detect corruption and focus full polls where they are most needed.
  • Initial implementation of Proof of Possession (PoP) polls, which establish rights to receive repairs from peers with less work than full polls (now called Proof of Retrievability polls).

LOCKSS Daemon 1.61.5

  • Symmetric polling: The poller now exchanges hashes bidirectionally with each voter, potentially doubling the rate at which nodes may prove possession and thus become willing repairers for each other.

Proof of Retrievability

The default V3 polling logic. Votes consist of an AUs entire hashed UrlSet.

Proof of Possession

POP polls are intended to be quicker verification of cached content by requesting only a sample of URLs in an AU. The required for the voter to hash and return the data is reduced and the poll tallier can return a result much more quickly.

POP polls are not enabled by default in this PLN.

See SampleBlockHasher.java and V3Poller.java for more

Local Polls

Local polls do not include voters, local hashes are used.

BlockTally

BlockTally.java enumerates poll results including TOO_CLOSE and NOQUORUM.

TOO_CLOSE

Configuration parameter 

org.lockss.poll.v3.voteMargin [75]

Need to investigate this further, particularly conflicts with quorum.

Does this mean a poll of 5 voters with 3 votes in agreement is invalid because (3/5)*100 = 60?

voteMargin input parameter is from configuration or default (75). 

boolean isWithinMargin(int voteMargin) {
 int numAgree = agreeVoters.size();
 int numDisagree = disagreeVoters.size();
 double numVotes = numVotes();
 double actualMargin;

 if (numAgree > numDisagree) {
  actualMargin = (double) numAgree / numVotes;
 } else {
  actualMargin = (double) numDisagree / numVotes;
 }

 if (actualMargin * 100 < voteMargin) {
  return false;
 }
 return true;
}

NOQUORUM

Configuration parameter 

org.lockss.poll.v3.quorum   [5]

ADPNet V3Poll quorum configuration is 3.

Poller's vote is not included in the vote tally. Quorum is established by 3 agreeing external votes.

Proxies

LOCKSS Proxy Servers

  • Content Proxy - Serve order : publisher, cache
  • Audit Proxy - Serve order : cache

Proxy Services

  • crawl_proxy AU title list parameter
  • Squid Proxy

Proxy Headers

A LOCKSS node with audit proxy can serve as a crawl proxy host. The audit proxy services returns the original header information (current.props) as well as LOCKSS headers. When specifying a crawl proxy to populate a new node, the additional information in current.props doesn't affect polling agreement.

Web Services

DaemonStatusService

Starting with LOCKSS Daemon 1.61.5.

A new LOCKSS user should be created for SOAP calls. The LOCKSS user can have no explicit permissions. This indicates user has read-only access to the status tables. LOCKSS should be set to Basic authentication, Forms authentication use SOAP headers is not working as is.

WSDL Service Reference : http://bpl-adpnet.jclc.org:8081/ws/DaemonStatusService?wsdl

isDaemonReady()

Content Service

Content Service utilizes MTOM encoding to transfer binary data from the LOCKSS node to the client.

.NET Client Configuration

MTOM encoding is a breaking change for .NET 2.0 Web Service models. .NET clients should instead utilize the WCF Service Model.

Issues with the BasicHttpBinding

  • KeepAlive not configurable, multiple targets cannot be accessed within the same application instance

Issues with WsHttpBinding

  • Basic Auth transport, no SSL on LOCKSS server

CustomBinding solution 

<bindings>
 <customBinding>
  <binding name="ContentServiceCustomBinding" ...>
   <mtomMessageEncoding messageVersion="Soap11" />
   <httpTransport ... authenticationScheme="Basic" keepAliveEnabled="false" />
  </binding>
 </customBinding>
</bindings>

<client>
 <endpoint address="http://...:8081/ws/ContentService"
    binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="ContentServiceCustomBinding"
    contract="ContentServiceImplService.ContentService" name="ContentServiceImplLockss01" />
</client

Versioned Fetch File

Starting with LOCKSS Daemon 1.68, the Content Service includes methods to access versioning information. 

List<FileWsResult> getVersions(String url, String auid): It provides a collection of 
  objects, one per existing version, containing the version number, the file size and 
  the collection date.

ContentResult fetchVersionedFile(String url, String auid, Integer version): Similar to 
  the existing fetchFile(String url, String auid), but returning the specified version 
  instead of the latest one.

Hasher Service

Web service interface into the same Debug Panel interface to HashCUS.
