2. Main Achievements
Two new versions of Operations portal were deployed in this quarter: 2.6.3 on August 5th and 2.6.4 on September 29th. Detailed list of new features can be found in JRA1 section. At the end of the quarter there were four NGI instances: NGI_BY, NGI_CZ, NGI_GRNET and NGI_IBERGRID. Decommission of the old CIC portal (cic.egi.eu) was postponed and is planned for the next quarter.
Two new versions of SAM were deployed in this quarter: SAM-Update13 on September 7th and SAM-Update14 on October 22th. SAM/Nagios deployment of NGI instances continued. As part of the NGI UK creation UKI ROC SAM instance was switched to NGI instance covering two NGIs: NGI_IE (Ireland) and the new NGI_UK. At the end of the quarter following SAM/Nagios instances were in production:
- 26 NGI instances covering 37 EGI partners
- 2 ROC instances covering 2 EGI partners
- 1 project instances covering 1 EGI partners
- 3 external ROC instances covering the following regions: Canada, IGALC and LA.
Detailed list of SAM/Nagios instances can be found on the following page: SAM Instances.
3. Issues and Mitigation
| Issue Description | Mitigation Description |
|---|---|
| High availability of central operational tools is needed. | GOCDB: dynamic loadbalancing DNS setup is provided for the address goc.egi.eu. Secondary instance in Fraunhofer institute is still being deployed. Delay is caused by the development and deployment of the new GOCDB version. |
4. Plans for the next period
Decommission of the old CIC portal (cic.egi.eu) is planned for the next quarter.
Track and perform planned tests of failover configurations of centralized tools.
Deploy new SAM instance dedicated for monitoring operational tools with the new probes provided by operational tools developers.
