      Review of weekly issues by experiment/VO - LHCb -- Proposal http://indico.cern.ch/getFile.py/access?subContId=6&contribId=2&resId=0&materialId=0&confId=42750 - CMS - ATLAS From Roger and Graeme last week on memory: "What I would suggest is really wanted is that sites provide information on 1. Real physical memory per job slot. 2. Real memory limit beyond which a job is killed. 3. Virtual memory limit beyond which a job is killed. This can be per-queue if you have different limits (e.g., RAL have 2G and 3G queues). Then, for ScotGrid: Glasgow 2GB, No limit, No limit ECDF 2GB, No limit, 6GB Durham 1GB, No limit, No limit" - Other

      ROC update 15m
      ROC update *************** - Proposal for a process for retiring obsolete services and old versions of services - gLite 3.1 update 33 1. The glite-BDII (top-level BDII) meta-rpm for Update 33 was removed on Friday. At the same time the previous meta-rpm was changed to require exactly the previous version (3.9.1-5) of the bdii rpm. Sites that already upgraded their top-level BDIIs before these changes may want to downgrade (but see below). Resource and site BDIIs were not seen to display the instabilities described in Savannah bug #42727, therefore the meta-rpms for other node types have not been changed. The top-level BDII instability is being looked into with high priority. 2. The "chown" problem reported by Michel Jouvin does not affect sites that use YAIM for their configurations. A fix for this problem has been coded and a new bdii version is being certified. It is expected to be released to the production system this week.
