2. Main Achievements
During the reporting period the so called “New SW Release Workflow” (NSRW) has been implemented in the RT queue “sw-rel”, and the notification tests have been performed.
Early Adopter teams: For gLite 3.2 series most of the components are covered with at 1 or more teams, the sole exception presently are the MyProxy, dCache and VOMS_Oracle. Recent addition of EA to test LFC_Oracle from a WLCG T1. In a collective response from ARC sites, several EA teams have volunteered for ARC components. (Mitigation of issue 3 of QR2)
The report template is now used for all staged rollout tests, and uploaded into the document server: Search “staged rollout” in https://documents.egi.eu/secure/SearchForm , an example: https://documents.egi.eu/secure/ShowDocument?docid=320
The total number of Early Adopter teams is now 40, it includes one more team from a WLCG T1, and a Canadian team, besides all newcomers for ARC.
3. Issues and Mitigation
Issue Description | Mitigation Description |
---|---|
gLite 3.2 components without EA: MyProxy, dCache and VOMS_Oracle | Myproxy has already a confirmed volunteer. dCache, discussions ongoing with developers to publicize to the sites deploying dcache, and thus have EA volunteers. VOMS_Oracle, follow a similar approach as was done for LFC_Oracle. |
The test of the full chain of SW release is delayed | Most of the implementation is completed, and the test is expected early in the next reporting period |
