        • a) <big>Central Grid-Operator-on-Duty (c-COD) handover</big>
          From Central Europe to Northern Europe
          Handover Log:
          From last week left only issues concerning APEL test (sites are working on the problem) and some alarms not handled by AP ROD (ROD asked for action and explanation). I would like to remind that C-COD started not only ask RODs for action but also for explanation why issues were not handled according to procedure. We need that to know how to read metrics. -Malgorzata Krakowian

          Only AP, CE, CERN, DECH and ROC_LA (why were they not called just LA?) had validated their reports this week!

          AP ROC:

          • Very complete report on progress with CREAM CE and APEL etc., but no issues to raise at this meeting.
          DECH ROC:
          • FZK-LCG2 [Announcement]: Planned WN update on the fly next week: new glite packages, gLExec will be supported. Intervention: ce-1-fzk will be taken offline.

        • f) <big>CREAM-CE Deployment</big>
          CREAM CE on SL5 still not released: https://savannah.cern.ch/patch/?3260 SAM tests: available for viewing in Production (https://lcg-sam.cern.ch:8443/sam/sam.py). Only CEs that publish "production" tag are visible. Need to define when tests can be set to critical in order for alarms to be generated.

          Various tidbits gleaned from the CIC portal:
          • New version of Operations Dashboard available tomorrow
