The following releases were coordinated during the present period: U33-37 of glite 3.1 • Installing and configuring glexec on PPS WN for LHCB pilots jobs. • Installation of a new gLite3.1 UI for PPS on SVGD • Pre-deployment of the following services (given per update): • U34: CE, SE, WN, MON and RGMA • U36: CE, SE, WN, MON and RGMA • U37: CE and WN • Update of the pre-deployment test introduction page (savannah task #7780). • Elaboration of a complete list of services to test and formal request to all PPS sites for collaboration testing orphaned services (services currently not tested by any partner) • Support for PPS sites, answering questions in the PPS mailing list • Presentation in EGEE'08: • The Deployment Test: Present and Future

10. Contribution to SA1 Tasks CESGA QR2, SA1-SWE Partner Coordination Meeting 2, Oct 22 2008 • TSA1.2.6 Interoperations • Configuring and testing new I2G/EGEE interoperability procedure • Installing a configuring new CESGA interoperation infrastructure between EGEE/I2G and NGI-ES • Configuring regional Nagios monitoring tool to support NGI-ES sites • Collaboration with FORMIGA project to support its infrastructure into EGEE • Collaboration with IMATH project: support to add their sites in the EGEE infrastructure (UB and UNICAN) • Collaboration with Retelab and Cytedgrid projects

11. Contribution to SA1 Tasks CESGA QR2, SA1-SWE Partner Coordination Meeting 2, Oct 22 2008 • TSA1.2.7 Monitoring Tools to support Grid operations: • Installation of a regional Nagios server for SWE federation: added PIC, LCG-USC, LIP and E-CA-IAA sites • Improved SWE SAM monitoring map and email alert functionality: possibility to monitor VOs different than OPS • Updating SWE SAM and GSTAT monitoring page to include new CEs in the ROC • OAT: Attendance to meetings, collaboration in MSA1.1: Operations Automation Strategy

12. What are the deviations? CESGA QR2, SA1-SWE Partner Coordination Meeting 2, Oct 22 2008 • PPS Deployment test coordination: • Some services are not being tested because no partner is responsible for them. Also in some cases they are not tested because the responsible partner is on holidays. To solve this issue we are building a complete list of services and looking for a responsible for each service as well as a “backup” site in case the primary responsible can not do the testing.

13. What is the main success in the reporting period? CESGA QR2, SA1-SWE Partner Coordination Meeting 2, Oct 22 2008 • The main success was the work done to accomplish the interoperability between EGEE, I2G, IMATH, FORMIGA and NGI-ES.

14. What is the main issue in the reporting period? CESGA QR2, SA1-SWE Partner Coordination Meeting 2, Oct 22 2008 • The main issue was gLite3.1 migration • Some bugs in critical services were found. In some cases, we had to wait for a new patch to solve these critical problems. • PPS Deployment Test Activity Issue: • As coordinators of the pre-deployment test activity, we had an issue on August with the package lcg-sam-client-sensors that had erroneous dependencies with GFAL-client package. • The problem was not detected because the package was erroneously included under glite-torque package instead of glite-WN. Glite-WN was tested but since we are using glite-SGE_utils instead of glite-torque the lcg-sam-client-sensors were not tested and the bug passed to production. No other partner with glite-torque tested this release.
