Documentation

During quarter 14 documentation activities were focused on integration procedures and other documentations with EGI Federated Cloud. Review of existing Operation Level Agreements has been started and as a result first document, RC OLA , was already updated and approved by OMB. Another documentation area was Resource Allocation were a number of materials were produced to support implementation of the EGI Resource Pool. Procedure 06 and 09 were updated and new temporary procedure 18 has been created to support Cloud resources integration to production infrastructure.


Availability reporting

Within quarter 14 availability reporting was performed as usual on a monthly basis. Publication of results and re-computation requests regarding A/R results were handled by the SLM unit via GGUS.

Catch all services and core grid services

VO services

Migration of dteam VO from VOMRS to latest EMI-3 VOMS has been completed in Sep 2013. Procedure was discussed and agreed during September OMB. Group Managers per group have been added manually to new instance as they were not migrated via the migration method followed.

One minor bug regarding the notifications mechanism was identified on the production instance. The VOMS development team was notified and the bug has been accepted.

EGI Catch all CA

EGI catch-all CA has tested issuance of SHA-2 end entity certificates successfully and is thus within the EUGridPMA official roadmap.

Core services for site certification

The site certification services have been updated during QR14. In specific new core Top-BDII and WMS services have been setup and older instances have been retired. Also the code running on site-certification.egi.eu has been maintained and updated. Deployment of the new release on the production service is scheduled for next quarter.
