1) Av./Rel. recomputation for not considering the downtimes due to the vulnerability CVE-2016-5195
All the resource centres that were affected by the vulnerability CVE-2016-5195 and that declared a downtime between 2016-10-20 16:00 UTC and 2016-10-31 18:00 UTC are invited to request a recomputation of A/R figures for the days in which the downtime was ongoing.
In according to the procedure https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/PROC10_Recomputation_of_SAM_results_or_availability... you need to fill this form:
http://argo.egi.eu/lavoisier/recomputation

In case of problems with the web form, please submit a GGUS ticket to ARGO/SAM support unit providing the same information.
2) UMD 3.14.5 released today, including: - umd-release 3.14.3, fixing an issue with GPG keys; details here: https://gist.github.com/pkoro/cc2ce75a0867a835f15d2f4d3fe50f44 (it doesn't affect new installations) - gridsite 2.3.3, fixing an issue with proxy renewal on WMS https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=124499 - VOMS 3.5.0, which makes RFC proxies the default for voms-proxy-init; an update of YAIM core handling RFC proxy as the new default
3) please start using UMD4/SL6 or UMD4/CentOS7 instead of UMD3/SL6 - Debian not used anymore, SL5 only security fixes, SL6 is available in UMD4 as well - UMD4/SL6 contains products of UMD3/SL6 which give support for the next year at least, all the unsupported products are not in UMD4/SL6 (please let us know if we are missing specific products that we might have skipped!) -- for some unsupported products, we are investigating how to replace them with equivalent products in UMD4/SL6 (see WMS) -- list of all the products that are in UMD3 but not migrated to UMD4 is available, to be improved: https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/UMD3_UMD4_products
4) new version of VAPOR (https://operations-portal.egi.eu/vapor/) will be released this month: it is an important tool for gathering and displaying the information published by the sites in the BDII, like for example the computing/storage capacities and many other things, and it replaced GSTAT.
Each NGI and Resource Centre should review the information provided by their sites and let us know any inconsistency: http://operations-portal.egi.eu/vapor/resources/GL2ResSummary . We need your feedback to improve the service.
- please test the version 2.2 by going on the dev instance http://operations-portal.egi.eu/vapor_dev - report any comment, inconsistencies or suggestion for improvement into https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=124872 where you can find details about how to test the version 2.2
