Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED
I received the email below from the developer who is implementing Singularity on the HPC in response to my question about running an already-built docker-container using Singularity Runtime. They are asking users to start test runs with their already-built Singularity containers. From his guidance below, can the MET docker-container be made to run in Singularity Runtime?
Thanks.

Subject: RE: Singularity Runtime installed on Centennial (UNCLASSIFIED)
You would need to convert the docker image to a singularity image. From there you might have to change some permissions or re-configure to use non-root directories. It depends on how tightly coupled the application is to root inside the image. You will need root on a machine to convert the image to Singularity.
Thanks,
Matt

Thanks for all your work on implementing Singularity and for the notification, Matt. I most certainly will send this out to others I know who are interested. I know of an already-built docker-container which I'm interested in. Does this fall into the category of being suitable for testing on Centennial?

Good News!
Containers are installed on Centennial (for early access). This is the first production machine container installation at the ARL DSRC.
Singularity runtime is installed on Centennial which means you still cannot build your containers on ARL DSRC resources. If you have already-built singularity containers and would like to run them please go ahead and test them out now. The more bugs/misconfigurations we find now will provide a smoother user-experience with container workloads. Let me know of successes and failures and please send to others who are interested.
Thank You,

John,
I forwarded your question about Singularity to other folks in the DTC
and
am forwarding their response.
Specifically, it looks like once we get the MET container posted to
DockerHub than importing it into Singularity becomes a one-liner.
Seems
like a good motivation to get that done!
Thanks,
John

John,
I have only tested singularity with standard images from dockerhub.
This
process is relatively easy:
https://www.sylabs.io/guides/2.5/user-
guide/singularity_and_docker.html?highlight=docker
Converting images locally is a bit more involved, and I have not tried
this
myself:
https://groups.google.com/a/lbl.gov/forum/#!topic/singularity/ZXOaNaM_6MY
This all requires that you are on a machine with both Docker and
Singularity installed, which is a big limitation.
The easiest thing for users would be if we did this conversion
ourselves
and provided both Docker and Singularity images. Provided I have hours
left
after the prep for the tutorial is completed this is something I can
look
into.

John -
Sorry for the delayed response. I'm just reading your email and the
developer response now and am glad to hear the positive assessment of
possible development work which might enable the production of a MET
Singularity container . Keep me posted on further developments of this
enhancement of the MET distribution. If I can assist in any way please
let me know.

Subject: MET docker-container in Singularity (UNCLASSIFIED)
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Thu Jan 10 08:03:47 2019
John,
I forwarded your question to Mike Kavulich, who's planning on working
with
Singularity. Listed below is my question and his response. We are
both at
AMS this week.
---------------------------------------
Mike,
I got a followup question from John Raby from the Army. He's
wondering if
we've made any progress in using Singularity containers.
If I remember correctly, once we make containers available via
DockerHub,
this is very easy. But until then, it's more difficult. Do you
happen to
have a Singularity version of the MET container he could use for
testing?
---------------------------------------
John,
I do not have a singularity container ready, I haven't re-installed
the
necessary software since my mac had to be serviced. I can get to it
next
week at the earliest.
Mike

John,
I forwarded your question to Mike Kavulich, who's planning on working
with Singularity. Listed below is my question and his response. We
are both at AMS this week.
---------------------------------------
Mike,
I got a followup question from John Raby from the Army. He's
wondering if we've made any progress in using Singularity containers.
If I remember correctly, once we make containers available via
DockerHub, this is very easy. But until then, it's more difficult.
Do you happen to have a Singularity version of the MET container he
could use for testing?
---------------------------------------
John,
I do not have a singularity container ready, I haven't re-installed
the necessary software since my mac had to be serviced. I can get to
it next week at the earliest.
Mike

Subject: MET docker-container in Singularity (UNCLASSIFIED)
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Thu Mar 14 16:40:14 2019
Hi John,
I wanted to let you know that I just posted the docker image for met-
8.0 up
to DockerHub. So retrieving it is now very easy:
docker pull dtcenter/met:8.0
In addition, once it's on DockerHub, I'm told that running it through
a
singularity container is pretty straight-forward. However, I haven't
actually done so myself:
https://www.sylabs.io/guides/3.0/user-
guide/build_a_container.html#downloading-an-existing-container-from-
docker-hub
Thanks,
John

Thanks for the update, John. I'm at home today, but I check email once
in a while.
So I understand this correctly, the version of MET in DockerHub is
capable of being run in a singularity container?

Subject: MET docker-container in Singularity (UNCLASSIFIED)
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Fri Mar 15 09:15:05 2019
John,
Yes, that's the idea. As long as the image lives on DockerHub, you
can run
a single command to build a singularity container from it. I have
never
actually done so myself since I don't have singularity installed on my
laptop, and it's not yet available on our HPC's.
Just take a look at the link I sent for an example of doing so.
Thanks,
John

John -
Thanks for the clarification. I tried accessing the link you provided
but it's timing out on both attempts using firefox. I plan to provide
a summary of this latest info about how MET in DockerHub can be built
as a singularity container to my POC for the Army HPC who installed
singularity and was interested in doing some testing. I anticipate
that he will have some technical questions which will probably be over
my head, so I may ask for some input from you depending on what the
question is. How does this sound to you?
R/
John

John,
Yes, that's the idea. As long as the image lives on DockerHub, you
can run a single command to build a singularity container from it. I
have never actually done so myself since I don't have singularity
installed on my laptop, and it's not yet available on our HPC's.
Just take a look at the link I sent for an example of doing so.
Thanks,
John

Subject: MET docker-container in Singularity (UNCLASSIFIED)
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Mon Mar 18 11:54:25 2019
John,
Very odd. I just googled "singularity and docker". And the first hit
is:
https://singularity.lbl.gov/docs-docker
At the top of this page it redirects me to a new URL here:
https://www.sylabs.io/docs/
Hopefully you can track down the content on one of these links.

Subject: RE: [Non-DoD Source] Fwd: [rt.rap.ucar.edu #87728] MET docker-container in Singularity (UNCLASSIFIED)

John -
I think I was trying a different link which was present in the older
emails, but was not the intended one. I used your suggestions for
related content and successfully found the site you originally
provided (I think). See the following URL:
https://www.sylabs.io/guides/3.0/user-guide/build_a_container.html
At the above site I see instructions and the command I think you were
referring to as follows:
Downloading an existing container from Docker Hub
You can use build to download layers from Docker Hub and assemble them
into Singularity containers.
$ sudo singularity build lolcow.sif docker://godlovedc/lolcow
Is this the info you were referring to?
Thanks.

John,
Very odd. I just googled "singularity and docker". And the first hit
is:
Caution-https://singularity.lbl.gov/docs-docker
At the top of this page it redirects me to a new URL here:
Caution-https://www.sylabs.io/docs/
Hopefully you can track down the content on one of these links.
John

CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED
------------------------------------------------
Subject: MET docker-container in Singularity (UNCLASSIFIED)
From: John Halley Gotway
Time: Fri Mar 22 10:27:16 2019
John,
Yes, that's right. That's what I was referring to. And we're happy
to
answer questions you or your sys-admin may have about Singularity.
However, I have not actually run it myself. So I'll likely refer you
to
Mike Kavulich, a colleague of mine who will be trying out Singularity
containers later this year.
I'll go ahead and resolve this ticket now. But when more questions
arise,
please just send a new email to met_help at ucar.edu.
Thanks,
John
