  • Alastair

    • Server patch #1124 
      Was due to go out on Wednesday - but did it? 
    • Server patch #1144 (synch fixes) 
      Was due to go out on Wednesday - but did it? 
    • Alastair should assist Dave K with the configuration
      APEL Core etc are fine - but the APEL publisher is failing with some ETICS feature
    • Patch for #26344 , #26345 and CLI
    • Building and testing new code
      It is preferable to have a single war file so that we can deploy server and client separately. Should be done this week,
    • Registry able to forward to old registry
      There may be a problem with the consumer not getting a list of producers by the registry - need to check
    • Pursue weekly failures of RGMA17
      Tagged a fix made by Kush on the leaking file descriptors. Will also look at trying the reconnect option. Tried the reconnect but the flexi-archiver script could not cope with the extra "=" sign.
    • Investigate the configuration parameters for MySQL and for Tomcat
      Tried on RGMA17 but it does not work because the parameters are for the wrong JVM
    • RGMA_HOME value is built into the RPM. Should move to CATALINA_OPTS
    • GINpatch #1093
      In configuration. The EMT did not think this important enough to certify at the moment.

    Antony

    • Monitorig tools RPM
    • Check that the job wrappper script can be modified to publish once at end of job to two tables, test it - to make sure we onyl get one prducer and give the code to Piotr  - New
    • #24643 Tomcat can fail in various ways detectable by parsing its log file
      Checked in another change - just needs ETICS configuration
    • Check code and design of task Q  - New
    • Find a way to look for GIN/ServiceStatus problems in R-GMA so that we are useful to the info supermarket.
      Started thinking about it - this is related to service publishing
    • #22205 Upgrade to Glue schema 1.3
    • Plan migration from physical DB names to logical  - New
    • Write an R-GMA-probe or PrimaryProducer-probe https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/LCG/GridMonitoringProbeStandard
    • #24641 LD_ASSUME_KERNEL no longer needed
    • #24007 org.glite.rgma.flexible-archiver contains deprecated calls
    • #24029 org.glite.rgma.servicetool contains deprecated calls
    • #22167 GLUE archiver has problems with stale lock files
    • Patch #1086  is in production so will need to tell people to start using the new exception soon
    • Get UI info so that we can get back in the RTM
      Now we must wait for 3.1 to be deployed

    Kush

    • Update the inspector to work with new and old consumers
      Appears to work but needs new schema
    • Test that new streaming really works - given that we have no new producers
      Tests may exist but need to check.
    • Send DN and VOMS attributes in an open ended way to the prodcuer in the start call. The spec will need updating to match later.
      Need to find out how to extract the info from the VOMS extensions - should ask Stuart. However it may not be needed - wait to hear from Stuart

    Ming

    • Write schema tests
      Unit by end of month and system a week later
    • #19645 The Sub exception org.edg.info.ReadTimedOutException is an inappropriate type

    Parminder

    • Convert tests to python
      Copying and untarring working OK. Will now start passing commands

    Paventhan

    • gLite style C wrappers
      Need get functions
    • R-GMA plugin
    • BDII with C++ with SAGA query style
      Just needs tidying

    Steve

    • Logging document with Ales
      Good agreement with Ales - but there may be some problems with the security demands. Some more discussions with the notion of event type.
    • Resolve design fixmes with Kush
      Documentation on observer stuff checked in
    • New SD spec
