Chair and Minutes : Joel Phone : Ricardo,Federico, Alexey, Adri, Matvey Krzysztof, Stefan, Zoltan, Joel, Vladimir, Elisa, Rachid, Roberto, Philippe,Pete Certification release: LHCbDirac v5r12-pre10is installed on the certification machine and instance. It is also installed on LHCBDEV First test for the client part had a problem with the GUI of the Bookkeeping but it was a problem of configuration (fix by Ricardo and Zoltan) One bug found which was crashing the bookkeeping fixed by Zoltan. SAM jobs have been submitted but they are not running since Friday. Probably a task or an Agent which is not started in the certification machine. Production request : for the certification : new template to be used. MC simulation template should be OK. For real data and merging , we could use the same template as used now In principle we have a slot the week of the 21st of February, so we should be ready to install the LHCbDirac release in production. For that we should prepared a detailed work plan for the migration. The main ingredient should be done by Federico, Alexey and Zoltan as the major change is in the production request and Bookkeeping. It seem that we need to insert ourself the production request which are waiting. Before doing the migration we should drain the system for the production. What needs to be change between the OLD and NEW bookkeeping ? We should not forget the GANGA test for the user interface. Certification : should be automatize and report should be collect on a web page to avoid as much as possible manual intervention. Task list: task 18462 and 18262 have been discussed to clarify what should be done exactly. RAW and SDST should be available at CERN for a fraction according to the confuting model. (Philippe will create a task to have an action done. Consistency agent is written by Elisa. Joel should check the policy for usage of CASTOR.

09:30 → 10:00 Ongoing actions

The task list is available via the Savannah DIRAC group ( Task List ). If you are not already registered please do so at the Savannah page. In order to streamline the time spent during PASTE on the actions list only tasks in the status 'ToBeDiscussed' will be discussed there. In case some actions fall by the wayside they will automatically be updated to this status. Therefore the action assignees should take care to update this. For ongoing actions it is advantageous to report any progress in the Savannah tasks each week.
