Dear VO Managers and Site Administrators
I would like to inform you that the end of security support of the following
products:
- glite 3.2 glite-UI
- glite 3.2 glite-WN
- glite 3.2 glite-GLEXEC_wn
- glite 3.2 glite-LFC_mysql/glite-LFC_oracle
- glite 3.2 glite-SE_dpm_disk/glite-SE_dpm_mysql
was extended to 30/11/2012 (http://glite.cern.ch/support_calendar/).
The extension of security support of glite-WN has the purpose of allowing
more time to VOs for assessing the running of their computational jobs on EMI
1 (sl5) - released with UMD 1.0.0 [1], and EMI 2 WN (sl5/sl6) - released with
UMD 2.1.0 [2].
VOs are highly recommended to run tests in order to have a safe migration
from gLite to EMI. For instructions see the broadcast message
https://operations-portal.egi.eu/broadcast/archive/id/699 sent on
2012-07-19.
As VO readiness towards EMI 1 and 2 WN is still being assessed, site
administrators should *not* upgrade production WNs to EMI 1 or 2 until
further notice, unless there is confidence that the upgrade will not affect
application software of the supported VOs and there is an agreement with them.
As to DPM, an upgrade from gLite 3.2 to EMI/UMD is now possible without
re-installation as documented at [3]. Please contact the EGI helpdesk
(http://helpdesk.egi.eu/) for support.
Best wishes.

Dear VO Manager.
The ERINA+ project is conducting a socio-economic impact assessment of the
EGI-InSPIRE services on the user communities.
With this survey, we ask Virtual Organisation Managers to evaluate the impact
of the availability of the European Grid Infrastructure (EGI) and related
high-throughput computing services possible thanks to the EGI-InSPIRE project
for their users.
The data that you provide will be passed to the ERINA+ project and will
remain anonymous and analysed only at an aggregated level.
Who should fill this survey: VO managers or their delegates
Deadline: 10 September 2012 - 17:00 CET
Survey Link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/THZH7GJ
For information, contact: policy(a)egi.eu

Dear all,
a new version of egi-vomscerts has been released.
egi-vomscerts 3.0 adds next cert for voms.hellasgrid.gr and
voms2.hellasgrid.gr and removes the old expired ones.
The rpm is needed at the following node types but is NOT added to their yum
repositories as they are out of the update cycle:
* glite-FTS_oracle
* glite-WMS
The lcg-CE no longer needs egi-vomscerts when it has been configured
correctly. i.e. when for each supported VO a directory
/etc/grid-security/vomsdir/<vo> contains a "*.lsc" file for each of its VOMS
servers.
YAIM handles that automatically, see the "VO_<vo-name>_VOMSES" and
"VO_<vo-name>_VOMS_CA_DN" variables in the YAIM documentation:
https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/LCG/Site-info_configuration_variables
The rpm is available at:
http://koji.afroditi.hellasgrid.gr/packages/egi-vomscerts/3.0/1/noarch/egi-…
To update download the rpm and install it according to your operation
practices.
Note that the current certificates are expiring on 7th of September and we
have scheduled
the update of certificates on 5th of September, thus update before that date.
Best regards,
The EGI VOMS administration team.
