order to let them know that you are going to performance this
change, because your site could fail the org.apel.APEL-Sync Nagios
test due to the accounting published is not being assigned to the
new site-name. It is possible that after the change, the APEL
service will publish all the accounting data in the service under
new site-name, so you should be aware of it and comment it to the
APEL support unit if it happens. On the other hand, you should
mention the date of when you publish the accounting data under the
new site-name to the APEL support unit in order to preserve under
the old name all the previous accounting data before that date, and
the published accounting data after that date should be under the
new site-name. Do not forget to change the site-name on the file
/etc/glite-apel-publisher/publisher-config-yaim.xml in the APEL
service.'''</span>
