    • Track Patches
      Patch assigned to John. However there is a new tag which also fixes the GLUE archiver. The patch will be recycled. There are now 3 related patches:  1606  (flexible archiver 3.0 - ready for certification),  1639 (glue archiver 3.0 set to None) and  1537 (Mon box 3.1 - ready for certification). Mon box has a problem with the trust manager configuration script. YAIM is being modified to fix it. APEL is known not to work. This could become a problem if it is not done soon. Help with APEL as necessary to getthe MON box out.
    • Follow un on the CERN Mon Box
    • Bodge the old registry
    • Do registry replication
      Needs testing. Some testing but need to do distributed test. 
    • 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

    Antony

    • Understand Diligent job submission
      They use WM-PROXY web service - still being pursued. They use the new WMS which should be producing the right log file - however L&B have not yet fixed the bug. E-mail sent to Ales - but no response. Zdenek has said they will try to fix it.
    • SD web page for UIG
    • Fix inspector
      Schema works now. Some problems seen with the producer's cursor
    • 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. Asked about outstanding bug. This is on 3.1 but again needs L&B action. 
    • Add metadata columns to all  tables in consultation with users
    • 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.
    • #27808 GIN not handling GlueServiceAssociation properly
    • Patch #1086  is in production so will need to tell people to start using the new exception soon
    • #22205 Upgrade to Glue schema 1.3. Needs releasing at the right time.
    • Service Proxy Module - add to GIN etc
      Antony has done this for the job status raw archiver - can it be done in a more generic way? GIN has some bug fixes to make as well. May have been done - Antony will check.

    • Converting old tests from system-test module to server module as unit tests.
      PP was OK and the SP has now been done - working on the others 3-4 days to complete.
    • Review task manager - and compare with design doc
    • Review PP - and compare with design doc

    Paventhan

    • Design and implement the python wrapper (without SWIG)
    • Request SAGA SD as ETICS external  - C++ and Python
    • Get adapter code into ETICS

    Steve

    • Make system tests work. Major refactoring done. Some tests need working on to make into "Unit Tests". Those left behind are now mostly in good shape.
      System tests framework modified to work on 3.0 and 3.1. Then tried the new server code. Fixed the CLI Tool by modifying RGMAServlet to deal with missing VDB. All service tests fail until creation of "usertable" and modifications to ServletResponseWriter to make it work with old Java API. Then found that some system tests may be wrong - and some of the tests are taking a very long time. We need a better display of memory use in inspector. Is zero interval in a query prop OK? - Yes.
    • LastPopIntervalMillis="-1" - see http://www.physics.gla.ac.uk/pipermail/jra1-ral/2008-January/000642.html
    • Timer already cancelled. - see http://www.physics.gla.ac.uk/pipermail/jra1-ral/2008-January/000645.html
    • Consumer hangs onto dead producers - may be more than one problem - see http://www.physics.gla.ac.uk/pipermail/jra1-ral/2008-January/000647.html
    • The values for JVMHeapUsePercentage and JVMGCCount remain constant at
      JVMHeapUsePercentage="0.00"
      JVMGCCount="0" see: http://www.physics.gla.ac.uk/pipermail/jra1-ral/2008-January/000648.html
    • Think about configuration and ACLs
    • Improve R-GMA SAM tests and get into GridView
      Now in Savannah at low priority. Assigned person says that it should be out with next sensor release -  but no idea when. 
    • Track bug 22605 Glue Service Uniqueid issue. Maria reports:  This is now fixed in HEAD and it will appear in the next glite-yaim-core 4.0.4-x release.
    • Update and submit SAGA SD spec
      Updated and given to the group - awaiting the final go-ahead. Andre has made more suggestions
    • Add to the spec that both client and mon box names should be a stringified numeric IP addresses
    • #19645 The Sub exception org.edg.info.ReadTimedOutException is an inappropriate type. It should just thrown RemoteException - needs fixing in all APIs.
