    Dear All, As end of 2006 is approaching, we have to define IT services availability during the CERN annual closure. I propose that groups send me before the end of the month the availability plans of your services, based on requests from users. 1) which services are to be kept running and what coverage 2) which services will be left unattended 3) which services will be switched off As far as compensation is concerned, we have now provided our input to HR in the view of a possible amendment to the SRR, but no feedback so far. However for planning purposes, a safe working assumption would be to assume that the same rules as previous years will be applied. I will also need from you a detailed plan of people availability during the annual closure. But I'll send a reminder for this. Please find attached the coverage message which was sent last year. Frédéric.

  - Oracle quarterly patch 15m
    
    News from installation on integration RAC
    Testing schedule of relevant services
    Scheduling of installation on production RAC(s)
    Oracle has released yesterday the October security patch for their software. This is a rolling patch, so no service interruption is expected. We need to install it as soon as possible on the integration/validation database INT3R and request that you test your applications against this patch. About one week after, if agreed on WLCG-SCM and if no problems reported by the application owners, we will do the same on the production server.
    Schedule:
    
    23/Oct (Monday) - deployment of Oracle October CPU on INT3R
    
    Services affected: egee_sam, egee_sam_pilot, int3r, int3r_gridview, int3r_nolb, lcg_fts_pilot, lcg_fts_stresstest
    
    1/Nov (Wednesday) - deployment of Oracle October CPU on LCGR (only if fully tested by application owners and no issues found)
    
    Services affected: lcg_fcr, lcg_fts, lcg_fts_w, lcg_gridview, lcg_lfc, lcg_same, lcg_shiva, lcg_voms, voms_pilot
    
    As the patch is rolling, no service interruption is expected for these deployments.
