Hi,
Further questions in preparation for the upgrade!
Is there an official statement on the timing of the release and
difference to EDG2, of the LCG1 testbed?
At some point sites are, presumably, going to have to make a decision as
to whether they are going to be in EDG2, LCG1 or both. Do we know when
this is likely to be?
Also for EDG 1.x, a site has been required to have an SE and a CE. For
EDG 2 there are a number of additional nodes, such as NM (Network
Monitor) and MON (RGMA server?). Which, if any, of these, are required
at every site?
Owen.
