    • 10:30 → 11:00
      COD mandate 30m
      MANDATE:
      1. Move from central COD model to regional COD model; goal: central COD as we understand it today does not exist at the end of EGEE III; all rocs running a regional cod by the end of egee III
      2. Define what a “thin central COD layer” would do, and if needed introduce it in the new COD model
      3. Coordination between regional CODs and central thin layer COD (if needed)
      4. Communication and share of expertise between regional CODs
      5. Update and maintain common operational procedures

      MAIN CONCERNS (extracted from Helene's presentation at the transition meeting):
      1. Follow-up on the requirements on each of the monitoring tools for COD daily work and tools integration purposes
      2. Process failover of all operational tools needed for COD work
      3. Assessment of the operational tools availability
      4. Need to define the interface with OAT, ROCs
      5. Make the COD structure evolve to gather and coordinate manpower to improve and enhance COD service now and in transition phase to regional model
      6. COD mandate need to be officially agreed on, for federations to foresee the manpower at the same time as the OAT
      7. Community building for the two following purposes:
        1. 1rst line support generalization and consequences on tools and procedures including set-up of a knowledge base
        2. Experimentation on what the operations model of the next COD generation in EGI could be
      8. Need of interface to OAT in terms of requirements follow-up : Monitoring tools, failover, integration tool (The OAT handles development and availability of monitoring tools. CODs (r-CODs, c-COD), as users of those tools, are clients of the OAT. They assess their reliability.)
      9. Need of interface to ROC via internal committees : ROC-Forum for setting-up failover mechanisms for m/w core services
      Speaker: Helene Cordier (CNRS/IN2P3)
