      Meetings & updates 20m
      - ROD team status (any points to raise to sites or issues to follow up?) - Tier-1 update - NGI support process... some recent problems in tickets submitted via GGUS reaching NGS/NGI colleagues who now support some of our services. This is being addressed but please raise any concerns quickly. One general comment, please provide as much information in the ticket as possible for the TPM to make a more accurate assessment. - The most recent EGI Grid Ops meeting was yesterday: https://www.egi.eu/indico/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=182. Main item picked out by SP was: "Current deadline of 31.01.2011 for BDII on 3.1 means that the lcg-CE will loose support of critical component (resource BDII) then. As lcg-ce is still needed; so that's a problem". - The next WLCG Grid Deployment Board will be on 13th October (the agenda is here http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=72063). Graeme is the T2 rep this month but any of you can join via EVO (WLCG community). Are there any issues for us to raise? Topics to be covered are: Operational security - the recent vulnerability and response OPN troubleshooting Middleware - update on 3.1 decisions Installed capacity - starting to assume that http://gstat-prod.cern.ch/gstat/summary/GRID/GRIDPP/ is now accurate for capacity (not jobs). Then a series of talks on the Data Access & Management Demonstrators. - Escalated tickets https://gus.fzk.de/download/escalationreports/roc/html/20101011_EscalationReport_ROCs.html 3 tickets on hold. 56316 - NGS-RAL not in BDII 58733 - RAL-PP biomed. dcache issue. 61228 - ALICE RAL T1.
