Test of 64-bit WNs in PPS:
The 64bit natively compiled WNs have reached the pre-production phase and they are ready to be deployed.
We want to do it in PPS in the most convenient way for the VOs to use them.
We have sent last week two messages:
- To the VOs (through the EIS team), asking for an expression of interest and possible suggestions and feedback about possible testing scenarios.
We received a reply from LHCb and we are now working to address their reuirements.
Are there other VOs interested in being involved in a pre-production activity of 64-bit WNs?
- To the PPS sites, asking for sites willing to dedicate 64-bit machines to this deployment and testing activity.
So far only CERN and one site in Baltic grid have volunteered to pilot their 64-b deployment through PPS.
Are there other sites willing to support this testing platform?
