[Ct-grid] big grid / nl-t1 ops meetings
by Jeff Templon 04 Nov '08

04 Nov '08

Hi *, Ik hoop dat ik iedereen hiermee bereik (Ronald vD wil jij het aan Serge forwarden?) Zoals velen (maar niet allen) van jullie weten, hadden we bij de vorige maandagochtend vergadering besloten om over te gaan naar een nieuwe overleg structuur. Van Dennis heb je al iets over de 'algemene' vergaderingen gehoord. Dit bericht gaat specifiek over de *operations* meetings. De volgende ideeen hebben we op dit moment: * een goede moment is dinsdag middag, 13.00 * eerst een algemene ops vergadering met iedereen die er iets mee te maken heeft * aan het einde een korte stuk over Tier-1 zaken * er moet "iets" komen die vergelijkbaar is met gridview. het doel is: - we monitoren hoe we het doen - informatie uitwisseling over problemen en de oplossingen Of dat nou gridview is of iets anders is niet zo belangrijk, het belangrijkste is dat het nuttig is. naast de wekelijkse vergaderingen wil ik graag wat 'bliksem' vergaderingen een paar keer per week hebben. dit via een web conference, het doel is om het onder de 10 minuten te houden tenzij het echt langer moet. het doel is een soort status vergadering en gericht op problemen; als alles gewoon werkt bij alle big grid partners, hoeft de vergadering geen 30 seconden te duren. Ik stel voor dat we het vandaag niet doen, beetje kort van te voren en Nikhef is nog bezig met puin ruimen van gisteren. Maar let the discussion begin. JT

[Ct-grid] Doodle poll LOFAR technical workshop
by Dennis van Dok 30 Oct '08

30 Oct '08

Hi *, The LOFAR archive working group is a short-term (< 3 months) activity to come up with a blue print for the LOFAR long-term archive. This archive will host many terabytes, possibly petabytes, of astronomy data. We feel that we need a better understanding of all relevant issues at this scale. Therefore we'd like to have a workshop with storage specialists, to present the case for the LOFAR archive and to discuss possible pitfalls and solutions. I've started a Doodle poll to pinpoint the most suitable time and date; if this doesn't work out we'll probably have to contact the specialists individually. With apologies to all storage non-specialists on this list, Dennis van Dok http://doodle.com/y9kxvc8et9q9asap -- D.H. van Dok :: Software Engineer :: www.nikhef.nl :: www.vl-e.nl Phone +31 20 592 50 12 :: http://www.nikhef.nl/~dennisvd/

Hi * i think i promised you guys this information, about the "revolution" in GGUS. From Maria Dimou: ================= A new revolutionary GGUS development was recently decided at the User Support Advisory Group meeting. Normal GGUS tickets will be allowed to reach the Site's helpdesk address when a GOCDB-GGUS interface, based on Web Services, will be ready. A lot of technical (interface with GOCdb, interface with local ticketing systems) and procedural issues (what if the sites are not in GOCdb or have multiple email contact addresses per service) have to be clarified in this process. =============== I think this means that tickets (in many cases) get to skip the whole TPM thing.

[Ct-grid] BiG Grid meetings
by Dennis van Dok 27 Oct '08

27 Oct '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi *, Today's meeting was mostly a dud for lack of operations people and another failing video conference. There was some concern that the change of scope of this meeting will see a diminished attendance of the operations people in the future; I sincerely hope that they will keep coming even though they have their own meeting now. Let's try again next week; this should bring us 'out of phase' with the monthly departmental meeting at Sara. Proposed dates: 3 Nov 17 Nov 1 Dec 15 Dec Mondays at 13.30h. Please let me know if there are structural problems with these dates. Best, Dennis - -- D.H. van Dok :: Software Engineer :: www.nikhef.nl :: www.vl-e.nl Phone +31 20 592 50 12 :: http://www.nikhef.nl/~dennisvd/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJBchsIITq5lEwLHcRAmsuAJ9olrCpYbM5leO/7xTAsN7dRsAbKgCdGp1m kVlcytztkNNS+u8i8NwlHO0= =TzOx -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
