SLATE Storage

ATLAS project defines disk requirements.
How do we layout disks on ATLAS nodes?
How do we provision and advertise the storage consistently for xcache and other SLATE apps?

SLATE Monitoring Discussion

Discuss what SLATE should do about monitoring for at least two use-cases: 1) Monitoring for the SLATE application developer: what does the "SLATE pane of glass" provide for a developer and 2) Monitoring for the SLATE platform managers: what does the "SLATE pane of glass" provide for a platform deployer/manager?

Other cases?
