High rate of unknown Nagios tests. We also contacted sites MPI-K, UNI-Dresden, UNI-Karlsruhe, UNI-Siegen per email. Reason: May be

The NGI-DE Nagios was also down during our (KIT, FZKA-LCG2) downtime last week. We will recalculate the availability numbers for 
March.

and dCache update included the upgrade from SL4 to SL5. Now all seems to be fine now 
 - Problems with EMI release: After the update sometimes the Nagios test fails, with error message "job could not be submitted" or 
something like that. Comment by KIT: We also tested the BDII in EMI in preproduction. It was not described in the documentation 
that you need 3GB RAM.
