Description

With the concepts of grid pilot jobs new submission frameworks were built by various communities. To ensure security requirements gLExec can be used operating in setuid mode. The two available backends for gLExec - SCAS and Argus - provide unified user mapping and offer an easy user handling. In this contribution the experiences at GridKa, the German WLCG Tier-1 Center, with SCAS and Argus, differing service features and their pros and cons are discussed. Both services have been tested for their performance and reliability as well as the integration in the existing site concept.
