* Past Events o None * Future Events o Sixth UK e-Science All Hands Meeting. o CHEP 07 Victoria Paper accepted o EGEE07 Budapest * Actions Alastair o Ensure 3.1 is correctly specified Juha has changed configuration but it has raised a question about how to set CLASSPATH for servictool, gin etc which rely upon a symlink which is no longer being generated. Need either a symlink or some other solution. Also include new tomcat checking component. addressing bug 24643. Still no definitive answer. o Building and testing new code One known bug in registry to do with exception handling. Will then move onto consumer and schema. Will also need to modify configuration scripts. o 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 o RGMA_HOME value is built into the RPM. Should move to CATALINA_OPTS Antony o #22167 GLUE archiver has problems with stale lock files Should check that the specified process exists. Doing ETICS things - need to move to org.glite.rgma-util(s) o #27538 wrong permissions on glue.config file o #24641 LD_ASSUME_KERNEL no longer needed o Check with Matt Hodges on what he is doing with Nagios and rgma-server-check o Check code and design of task Q o #24007 org.glite.rgma.flexible-archiver contains deprecated calls o #24029 org.glite.rgma.servicetool contains deprecated calls o #27808 GIN not handling GlueServiceAssociation properly o #22205 Upgrade to Glue schema 1.3 Should address Paventhan's bug and add in the meta data columns at the same time. We must first be very clear about the types of the columns. o Plan migration from physical DB names to logical o Add metadata columns to all tables in consultation with users o Patch #1086 is in production so will need to tell people to start using the new exception soon o Get UI info so that we can get back in the RTM Now we must wait for 3.1 to be deployed. Need to look at the C++ header file on a WN to find out. In future each API component should deposit a file with the version number. Arun o Read spec, design and bits of code - with emphasis on primary producer. o Produce sequence diagrams for PP o Check the tuples store code for consistency with the design and spec. Ming o Change code to represent timestamps as "long" o Write schema system tests Now installed on 3 machines - most basic operations work. Ming will concentrate on the tests on a single machine first so that other components can be tested. o #19645 The Sub exception org.edg.info.ReadTimedOutException is an inappropriate type Parminder o Convert tests to python Almost done the non-parallel tests. Cannot get rid of the .sh until we see that we can test on SLC3. It may be OK as new version of Python may only be needed on the submitting machine. o See if we can use SLC3 machines - then can phase out .sh files. Paventhan o Report on timing issues with R-GMA o Track bug 27810 Some lfc-file-catalog service types do not have GlueServiceUniqueID attribute set o Track bug 22605 Glue Service Uniqueid issue o Track bug 28196 The service status attribute is missing (BDII) for ChannelAgent service type - New o Investigate SAGA plugin mechanism There is no documentation for the C++ mechanism o Find how we want to do it to support multiple plugins Steve o Logging document with Ales Accepted by Ales - now with Romain. Still under discussion. Still there are problems - no clear progress o Dependency challenge work Reports on R-GMA and SD sent. Report on DGAS received. o CHEP07 paper o Test that new streaming really works - given that we have no new producers It is here as a placeholder o Track patch #1093 for GIN Now in certification (3.0.3 RC1) o Track patch #1212 Optimisations to the R-GMA registry as a fix for bug #27510 3.0.2 PPS Update 37 o Track patch #1211 R-GMA CLI fix for Bug #27504 Removed getAllTable call from __init__ 3.0.2 PPS Update 37 o Add to the spec that both client and mon box names should be a stringified numeric IP addresses o All schema operations that change state return time stamp rather than OK - the spec needs updating o Remove ping from schema o Decide on what to do with exceptions (2 or many and what about the types?) o Fix pp spec o Fix major things in pp design o Check for consistency between design and code for consumer * Exceptions * Need for new schema operation for the consumer * Keeping design up to date * Support list o 30/7/2007 - Ming o 6/8/2007 - Parminder o 13/8/2007 - Alastair o 20/8/2007 - Antony o 27/8/2007 - Paventhan * AOB
