This page provides information about the User Support and Operation activity of the EGI Federated Cloud infrastructure. This activity involves participants from several partners of the EGI collaboration. The group has coordination teleconferences with bi-weekly frequencies. (Agenda pages at https://indico.egi.eu/indico/categoryDisplay.py?categId=36)
 
The goals of the User Support and Operation activity of the EGI Federated Cloud are:
1. Monitor the status of the EGI Federated Cloud infrastructure and related user support teams
2. Provide support for the use of the infrastructure by users and use cases
3. Identify bottlenecks, issues and opportunities for improving infrastructure operations and user support services
4. Initiate new activities for improved operation and support
5. Receive and discuss new cloud services from the EGI Federated Cloud Task Force
6. Capture user requirements and feedback for the EGI Federated Cloud Task Force and other relevant partners
 
= Meetings =
Coordination meetings for all involved partners are held with bi-weekly frequency. Meeting agenda pages (with date, agenda, connection details) are available at https://indico.egi.eu/indico/categoryDisplay.py?categId=36. (Look for events titled 'Federated Cloud User Support meeting')
 
= Actions  =
 
*Instructions for VO Managers (community representatives)
**Automate the process as much as possible (needs clear instructions and manuals on the website).
 
<br>
 
*Make support processes repeatable by the NGIs
**Establish in the Wiki a 'Guidebook for Federated Cloud user support teams'
**Based on Diego's S3-5. Include instructions where necessary (e.g. S4: Test the site before sending the user there - How?)
**Highlight the need for registering Use Cases in the Wiki
 
<br>
 
*Use cases - Inform the respective NGI User Support Team about the cases, so they can support and follow these up where needed
*High level tools - status of manuals? Can someone review these?
*Technical activities (e.g. testing) - invite DCC members
 
<br>
 
*Prepare an updated User workflow slide and put this to the user Wiki page
**Based on Gergely's slide
 
<br>
 
*Malgorzata to review the VO Creation Procedure after the EGI-InSPIRE review. This will simplify and extend the process for the cloud
 
<br>
 
*Use case for eGrant: Ask for resources to establish a VO.
**Has to be approved by David, then put into the eGrant system
**All allocations to go through eGrant --&gt; every certified site should be in eGrant
 
<br>
 
*Cyfronet team works on an extension to allocate resources inside the VO for a VA
**Marios and Roksana to discuss how this could be used in the user workflow and report back at the next meeting
 
<br>
 
*The first version of contextualisation is under review by Diego, Salvatore. Depending on their feedback the feature will be finalised (1+month).
 
*Review/improve the user workflow file
 
*Storage service to consolidate, then add a high level interface similar to Dropbox --&gt; Potential work in EGI-Engage
 
<br>
 
*Gergely &amp; Diego:
