2. ACTIVITY REPORT
2.1. Progress Summary
- Operations/Platform Deployment Survey was distributed between the Ibergrid Sites, then the results were collected and the summary was introduced in the EGI wiki on the following link, https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Operations/Platform_Deployment_Survey.
- Added a third primary DNS from RedIRIS site to the TopBDII HA mechanism. This third primary DNS, elsuper.rediris.es, was put on production during March 2012.
- Made a report with the different TOP-BDIIs used by the Ibergrid sites in their services.
- Closed the GGUS tickets which had been open to the Ibergrid sites to configure the VOMS redundancy for the Ibergrid VOS (GGUS tickets from #76214 hasta to #76232).
- Open the GGUS tickets from #81617 to #81625 to the Ibergrid sites to support the Ibergrid macro VOs and the VOMS redundancy for these VOs correctly.
- Working in the RT-GGUS integration and in the User support shifts. GGUS, Security, and General Support queues in the Ibergrid RT ticket system. Created two new email addresses, helpdesk@ibergrid.eu address to submit tickets to the Ibergrid RT ticket system, and ibergrid-support@listas.cesga.es is a mailing list to be used for the communications between the user support shifts teams.
- Decommission the SWE helpdesk. GGUS is no longer working with SWE helpdesk. Now, when a ticket is opened to a site in the Ibergrid NGI, a notification is sent to the ibergrid-tickets@listas.cesga.es mailing list, and an additional notification is submitted to the site-administrators for the site via the site support email declared in GOCDB.
- Support CESGA in the site renaming process from CESGA-EGEE to CESGA. Draft a site renaming procedure to be used generally (https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Draft_PROC)
2.2. Main Achievements
- Enforcement of the TopBDII HA mechanism at local sites.
- 100% A/R in February, March and April 2012 for the TopBDII service (after the implementation of the TopBDII HA mechanism).
- A new site was joined to the Ibergrid infrastructure: CETA-GRID.
2.3. Issues and mitigation
Issue Description | Mitigation Description |
---|---|
There was several issues related with the Ibergrid Regional Nagios:
|
Recomputation already processed and ticket is closed and verified. |
Several crashes of the regional operation portal at the time part of SAM infrastructure was decommissioned | Reported to Operation Portal staff. After some patches, the problem dissapeared |
IBERGRID VOMS was hit by the VOMS-ADMIN membership renewal bug | Issues was solved with the help of the developers. |
