== The Operations Manager's Agenda==
 
===February 2011===
 
* ACTION 1. DEADLINE 10 Feb. '''Submmission of QR3 report and metrics''':
** Please supply NGI reports and metrics for QR3 at [https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/NGI_QR_Reports_and_Metrics here] 
** Please supply SA1 task reports and metrics for QR2 at [https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/SA1_Task_QR_Reports_and_Metrics here]
 
* ACTION 2. DEADLINE 10 Feb. '''Survey on supported OS platforms, LB, service management and monitoring''' (for EMI components). We would like to launch the first SA1 survey covering the following capabilities: Logging and Bookkeeping, Service Management and and Auditing and gLite-CLUSTER. All these capabilities are relevant to EGI and feedback - after internal processing - will be provided to the EMI project, so it is very important that you give this survey high priority. For some of the questions, you may need to consult your site managers. [https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/EGI_Operations_Surveys Instructions for submission].
 
* ACTION 3. DEADLINE 10 Feb.'''Call for Requiements: EMI 2.0 and Nagios tests'''. The requirement gathering process for EMI 2.0 (ARC, gLite and UNICORE) needs to start now, as EMI software development will start in May 2011, and all requirements need to be internally gathered and prioritized in the OMB and OTAG (depending on the type of requirement), and then discussed at the Technical Coordination Board of EGI. All requirements are gathered through the [https://rt.egi.eu/rt/ RT] requirements queue.
** [https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Mw-requirements.html Instructions] for submission of middleware requirements
** [https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Nagios-requirements.html Instructions] for submission of Nagios requirements
 
* ACTION 4. DEADLINE 10 Feb. '''APEL-Pub change of policy''' At the last OMB in Amsterdam, we discussed the possibility to change the policies of the APEL-Pub probe. APEL-Pub is an OPERATIONS probe, which returns CRITICAL if after 30 days the site is not publishing accounting data. This probe was introduced during EGEE-III to enforce publication of accounting data (at that time a large fraction of sites were not publishing correctly). It is a OPERATIONS test, as it generates an alarm in the Operations Dashboard when it turns to CRITICAL. The Italian NGI requested this policy to be reviewed, to return CRITICAL after 7 calendar days (instead of 30), as lack of publication of accounting records after 7 days is a good symptom that something needs to be fixed in the site, and waiting 30 days makes debugging of the problem more difficult. As at the end of February the R-GMA central databases will be decommissioned, having this change of policy will help the RODs to pro actively support the sites that still have to migrate to the Active MQ client. At the OMB the majority of the NGIs were in favor, and a couple were not. We decided to poll the missing NGIs with this mail. So, if any NGI objects for this change, please reply by Thursday 10. Silence will be interpreted as agreement.
