At this meeting we need to conclude on experiment-testing of FTS 2.0, if we are to stick to the agreed timetable of:
- circa 1 month testing at CERN, including 1-2 patch updates;
- roll-out at all Tier1s to allow for the services to be fully debugged and settled in prior to dress rehearsal activities
This would translate to:
- June 11th 2007: experiments give the green light to FTS 2.0 deployment in production at CERN;
- June 18th 2007: upgrade of CERN services (TBC)
- July 9th 2007: green-light to Tier1 sites to start deployment of FTS 2.0 services at their sites;
- July/August: settling in and debugging at sites as required;
- Post-CHEP 2007: full production load.
The current status of experiment testing / validation (AFAIK) is:
- ALICE: ok given at June GDB;
- ATLAS: ok;
- CMS: ok;
- LHCb: ok.
