== Feedback from DMSU  ==
 
== Notifications from ARGO about the nagios probes failures ==
 
In the process of implementing the notification system in ARGO, it was introduced the following changes in GOC-DB:
*Notifications flag at the site level
*Notifications flag at the service endpoint level
 
In this way ARGO will retrieve from GOC-DB the information about the sites and services whom sending the email notification and the related recipients.
 
The logic of the notifications is the following:
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Site
! Service
! Notify?
|-
| Y
| Y
| '''Y'''
|-
| Y
| N
| '''N'''
|-
| N
| Y
| '''N'''
|-
| N
| N
| '''N'''
|}
 
If there isn't any email contact defined at the service endpoint level, it will be used the site contact. '''Please review your contacts'''.
 
'''You can enable the notifications'''.
 
'''NOTE''': It is not mandatory for the sites

If no particular issue occurs, and if at least 75% of webdav endpoint are passing the tests, the probes will be added in the [https://poem.egi.eu/poem/admin/poem/profile/3/ ARGO_MON_CRITICAL] profile, so the results of these probes will be taken into account for the A/R figures.

== Storage accounting deployment  ==
 
During the [https://indico.egi.eu/indico/event/3241/ September 2017 meeting], OMB has approved the full-scale deployment of storage accounting. The APEL team [[Storage accounting testing|tested it with a group of early adopters sites]], and the results prove that storage accounting is now production-ready.
 
Storage accounting is currently supported '''only for the DPM and dCache storage elements''' therefore only the resource centres deploying these kind of storage elements are requested to publish storage accounting data.
 
In order to properly install and configure the storage accounting scripts, please follow the instructions reported in the wiki: https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/APEL/Storage
 
'''IMPORTANT''': be sure to have installed the star-accounting.py script v1.0.4 (http://svnweb.cern.ch/world/wsvn/lcgdm/lcg-dm/trunk/scripts/StAR-accounting/star-accounting.py)
 
After setting up a daily cron job and running the accounting software, look for your data in the Accounting Portal: http://goc-accounting.grid-support.ac.uk/storagetest/storagesitesystems.html. If it does not appear within 24 hours, or there are other errors, please open a GGUS ticket to APEL who will help debug the process.
 
'''Test portal''': http://accounting-devel.egi.eu/storage.php
 
'''IMPORTANT''': Do not encrypt the storage records with your host certificate, please comment out the “server_cert” variable in sender.cfg
 
'''List of sites already publishing and of tickets opened is [[Storage accounting deployment|reported here]]'''.
 
Several sites are not publishing the storage accounting data yet. '''NGIs please follow-up with the sites the configuration of the script in order to speed-up the process.'''
