Comments on the notes of the last meeting:
This was not discussed.

CIC & ROC reports:

CIC-on-duty report (Gilles from IN2P3):
A full report is in the CIC-on-duty log, starting as [2005-04-04 10:38] - philippa strange

ROC reports must be uploaded to this meeting's agenda as "More Information" by the CIC-on-duty and the ROC managers themselves by 11am CET. The report template, is linked from the ROC views of the CIC web site and from the 2005-02-28 meeting's agenda. 

Issues discussed in addition:

GGUS:

When tickets are closed in GGUS there is no e-mail notification sent out (see the CIC-on-Duty report).  Hélène Cordier and Alistair Mills will request that this functionality be created in the GGUS trouble ticketing system.

Support-on-duty:

The support-on-duty for this week is IN2P3.  There is no candidate for the Support-on-duty for next week.  All volunteers should contact Alistair Mills.

Release of LCG-2 2.4.0:

The release has gone to the “test” sites.  The release will be made available within the next day or two.

Kostas Koumantaros said that it should be clearly stated in the e-mail accompanying the release whether the release has been verified by the “test” sites.  Kostas will raise this point at the next ROC managers’ meeting and feed the requirements of the ROC managers back to Markus Schulz.

Next CIC-on-duty:

  • The CIC-on-duty this week is INFN (last week was IN2P3).
  • The actual work is be done by the ROCs and the follow-up by the CICs. The CIC-on-duty just does the monitoring.
  • The ROC managers should remember that when a problem at a site is solved the site needs to go through a period of quarantine before joining production again. This is mentioned in the Operations' Manual.
  • The CIC site (requires personal certificate loaded) is http://cic.in2p3.fr/ .
  • Link to the daily Site Status reports.
  • Savannah should be used for the Tasks' hand-over and follow-up. The Operations' Manual should be the basis.
  • When the CICs report also as ROCs, they should do this in separate reports.
  • Sites' status of updates can be checked in the daily reports e.g. http://cern.ch/lcg-testzone-reports/cgi-bin/lastreport.cgi

Next meeting:

  • The next regular telephone meeting will take place on Monday April 11th 2005 from 14:00 to 16:00 in conference room 28-R-015.
