          "Old" COD: UK/I => South East Europe (SEE)

          Report from UK/I (regular COD) :
          Quiet Week. No Serious Alarms.
          Outstanding issues are three tickets at 3rd mail to site admin level. No response received from grid site:
          MPI-K from the ROC_DECH It looks like the entire site is failing and should probably be put into downtime.

          Report from cCOD (SouthWest Europe):
          Problems with ROC CERN. We don't know if they haven't received mails or notifications, as they haven't reacted to our notifications, they have a lot of "OK" time out and alarms without tickets. Alas, this site just start on C-COD and may be adapting still.

          NorthenEruope has ticket(10045) time out since 10-04-2009

          Italy has in adapting time

        • <big> EGEE issues coming from ROC reports </big>
          • Central Europe: In CE ROC we have some sites with 32bit machines so we are interested in plans when 32bit glite 3.1 is planed to be discontinued. We need that to check if those sites are able to upgrade till that time.

          • UK/I: SAM results in the ROC report this week are missing.

          • UK/I: Last August there was a security incident and a UKI site was involved. As a precaution a UKI user was banned at sites pending investigation. No connection with or compromise of this user s account was found. The user still finds that they are banned at some sites - their grid certificate was reissued. What is the procedure here - should the user send GGUS tickets to all sites. Is this a ROC responsibility?
            Response from EGEE Security Officer: The VO is the entity who can suspend a user. Of course some sites may manually ban the user (and sometimes they are asked to), but usually the problem is solved after the affected site sends its security incident resolution report.
            However, ultimately, any site can decide to never re-enable the affected user again. In this case the user should contact his VO, who should talk to the sites. When this happens, usually users open a GGUS ticket.
            To answer specifically to your question, the agreement is between the sites and the VOs (hence the VO should be contacting the site(s), but whenever appropriate (eg: when there is clearly no security risk anymore) the ROC could help and simply recommend to all its sites to un-ban the user. Usually this poses no problem.

        • <big> REMINDER: Retirement of gLite 3.0 </big>
          As previously announced, it is planned that all remaining gLite 3.0 services will be retired by the end of April. At this point, all support for these services will cease.
          All sites should ensure that they are running up-to-date versions of their services.
          If any site sees a need to keep a gLite 3.0 service in the middleware stack, please submit a GGUS ticket as soon as possible.

          • ggus #44104. This ticket is waiting on the OSG GOC to roll out changes to their production BDII that will publish entries by their OSG resource group, not the OSG resource name. This will remove this issue before it gets to the BDII. Next action deadline in OIM is in Feb 2010. Should we close as unsolved to free the escalation reports?
