2. ACTIVITY REPORT
2.1. Progress Summary
- Follow up with sites which were publishing accounting data with unknown UserDNs.
- Follow up with sites that had to republish accounting data, and coordinate with the Accounting Repository staff for the republishing of large amounts of data.
- Provide information about the sustainability status of the NGIss (Portugal and Spain) after May 2014 and about the EGI Global operations services.
- Collect and report experience about national VOs running on EMI WN
- Collect and provide information about the IBERGRID and site-specific resource allocation policies
- Dissimination of the UMD upgrade calendar and of the imposed policies to follow up the implementation of such calendar.
- Follow up site's UMD upgrade within IBERGRID. NGI GGUS tickets were opened to sites requesting upgrade plans. Tickets were reviewed on a weekly basis.
- Follow up all questions from IBERIAN sites regarding the upgrade to UMD (doubts, issues, questions).
- Coordination for the migration of important regional services (R-Nagios, VOMS, LFC, WMS and Top-BDIIs)
- Follow up the monthly A/R report for IBERIAN sites failing the threshold.
- Follow up security issues with IBERIAN sites according to what is reported in the security dashboard,
- Follow up of the status of IBERIAN sites in GSTAT
- Decommission procedure for BIFI-IBERGRID and UMINHO-CP in progress
2.2. Main Achievements
- A systematic 100% A/R (6 months in a row) for the TopBDII service (after the implementation of the TopBDII HA mechanism).
- Major UMD upgrades for services operated by the NGI were successfully carried out with minimum interference in users activity (including R-NAGIOS).
- The majority of the sites are following the calendar for UMD migration. Currently only 5 sites have opened tickets regarding unsupported gLite middleware.
- Implementation of a monthly review of security issues by the regional security staff.
2.3. Issues and mitigation
Issue Description | Mitigation Description |

Some sites in the IBERIAN region are requesting the use of relocatable tarballs for UIs and WNs. This is a know issue which is already being followed by EGI Operations through: | The problem is still not solved |
CESGA is affected by a SAM issue (nagios binary compatiblity with SL6+) and as a consequence, it had 0% A/R in September and October | A new binary is upgraded in the regional IBERGRID SAM instance. Recomputation of A/R has been requested in
