<p>21 October 2025, 14:00 - 15:22</p>

<p>Present: Balazs, Maiken, Mattias, Lars, Andrii, Andrej, Florido, Oxana</p>

<p>The meeting is dedicated to data transfer jobs</p>

<ul>
	<li>Balazs summarises actions discussed in Kastrup in May, see&nbsp;https://docs.google.com/document/d/1i_4f1jKOPOBGLYT66wjhdYIz-AUe0g1uTUqQUlGd-oU/edit?tab=t.0</li>
	<li>Andrii reports on preliminary tests and experience. Some new attributes are needed, e.g. for accounting. New job types and states are also needed. Configuration for data-transfer-only servers should be simpler. An example use case could be&nbsp;pre-copying data to a cluster.</li>
	<li>Lars presents a proposal, see&nbsp;https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rdhZX3r0iRt96iaZJr12NwNNoPeuEySicPnOP1hO7ME/edit?usp=sharing
	<ul>
		<li>Some discussion on possibilities/feasibilities of using session directories as temporary storages that can be re-used, since we can access job directories via known URLs.&nbsp;URL-to-URL&nbsp;transfer might be an easier start, as this does not require designing a new SE.&nbsp;</li>
		<li>For streaming, session directory might not even be needed, and data can be placed directly in the destination</li>
		<li>The proposal is good, a follow-up on developments is expected in 3-4 weeks</li>
	</ul>
