      Konstantin Skaburskas November, 2008 Major work for Health-e-Child; major changes in workplan ---------------------------------------------------------------- WP5/T5.2 85% (1-9 M) (13-42 M) - support of HeC GW and site administrators * DPM (SRM+GridFTP) showed poor performance at MAAT2-Archamps-FR. Continued investigations of the problem. No evidences of problems with DPM software were found. Performance drop could be due to the fact that the service is running in side Virtual Machine. Further investigation are required as the issue is still there. * helped to resolve some issues with usage of lcg_util CLI - HeC on Google Earth: produces a set of .kml files to display all HeC sites (per sub-infra) in Google Earth. https://kskaburs.web.cern.ch/kskaburs/ge/hec-rgma-glue-map.kml Example: https://kskaburs.web.cern.ch/kskaburs/ge/hec-sites-onGE-v4.jpg WP5/T5.6 05% (13-42 M) - Contacted FIO at CERN for more IPs and virtualization of available hosts for HeC needs. There are possibilities to resolve the issue. Ongoing. WP5/T5.7 00% (18-42 M) - WP5/T5.8 10% (18-42 M) - Helped with poster preparation for ICT'08 WP5/T5.9 00% (13-42 M) - WP14/T14.1 00% (13-42 M) - WP14/T14.2 00% (13-42 M) - WP14/T14.6 00% (18-42 M) - WP14/T14.7 00% (18-42 M) - Major work for "GD-OPS; GD-ITR"; major changes in workplan ---------------------------------------------------------------- - SAM * development of high-level probes for Nagios to monitor gLite services: - SRM - CE * bug-fixing and new releases of current SAM Client and Sensors * support rota - PPS * administration of WMS at CERN_PPS site Major issues arising -------------------- - Deployment of NECKER didn't happen due to problems at the hospital wrt receiving the hardware from HeC parter (Maat). Major events attended (include links to event/presentation) --------------------- - Meeting with CIC developers to sync on DB schemata for the future monitoring architecture in the scope of OAT. (EGEE/WLCG related) Lyon, IN3P3, Nov 18 2008 Plans to attend/organize major events (intra-EGEE and others) ------------------------------------------------------------- - Deployment of NECKER in December 2008.
