I suggest that the SFT be modified to test CERN first since the test is
running from there. CERN is a grid site too so can of course have
problems. If CERN doesn't pass the test, tests for the other site are
marked 'suspect' in some way so we don't all get worried.
Kind of reminds me of the time a certain person (now an EGEE activity
manager) tried to convince me that his university was the only place in
Europe where the network was set up correctly, since data transfer
failed as soon as the other endpoint was in the outside world ;-)
