"It is not clear to the LOFAR VO manager what tasks are expected from a VO manager and what options/services are available to the VO manager. Is there a document providing guidelines on this? For example, how to retrieve and distribute information about (un)scheduled downtimes of relevant sites, what information to provide to new users about getting GGUS support, when should issues be communicated to EGI and when to the involved NGIs (lofar is a pan-european organisation that involves multiple NGIs), etcetera.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Operations

I've set up my project VO. How do I get computing resources?

In most of the places, VOs do not own physical resources but they own a right to use them. That right is earned according to the funding that sites receive from projects where VO members are involved. Therefore, sites do allocate a share of their ressources to a given VO depending on the funding they receive from local projects associated to that VO. This is the normal procedure on how newly VOs provide resources to the GRID. The GRID spirit behind is that everyone can use everybody resources as long as these resources aren't really needed.

Which users should be accepted in my VO?

It is unlikely that a user who has no affiliation with a VO will be allowed to use this VO since he (or his institute) has to contribute to the VO (with resources or in any other form) in return. The VO Manager should try to find out if a user request is valid (for example, if it is coming from an institute which already contributes to the VO infrastructure), or if the user is interested in contributing to the enhancement of the VO infrastructure. The VO should have a well defined Acceptable User Policy (AUP) which could guide the VO manager under this procedure. The ultimate decision to accept or deny a user request is always from the VO Manager.

What is the VO Acceptable User Policy (AUP)?

An acceptable use policy (AUP; also sometimes acceptable usage policy or Fair Use Policy) is a set of rules applied by the VO that restrict the ways in which the network site or system may be used. For more details please check [1]
