--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EGI BROADCAST TOOL : https://operations-portal.egi.eu/broadcast/send --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Publication from : Alessandro Paolini <alessandro.paolini(a)egi.eu> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear EGI users, the gLite WMS service has been in best effort support since more than one year, and only for security fixes. As a consequence of the limited support effort available, together with the WMS developers, EGI Operations is proposing the following decommissioning plan: • WMS will be decommissioned by the end of 2017 • After the end of the year all WMS instances will be removed from production. As alternative workload management system, EGI can provide support for migrating to the DIRAC service, a tool that provides features very similar to the WMS ones. If you are still using the WMS for your daily activities, please contact your VO managers in order to get in contact with EGI Operations: together the DIRAC supporters, we can set-up a server for your VO to start testing the new tool and provide support for the migration. We would encourage the VOs using WMS to coordinate with their users and contact EGI Operations as soon as possible, to plan the transition to other workload management system such as DIRAC, and not be unprepared when the WMS server are switched off. So please contact us per time in order to agree the transition to the new solutions. Best reagrds, EGI Operations ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- link to this broadcast : https://operations-portal.egi.eu/broadcast/archive/1719 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
