Hi,
I've been asked to investigate the following at sites:
1) T2s to establish experiment contacts with the LHC VOs.
Do we have any contact with the experiments? i.e. People you revert
to if something needs to be done in cooperation? Like moving data
discussing why jobs are not coming in or other things like that?
2) Understand networking topology at each site. Are the topologies
collected in
http://www.gridpp.ac.uk/wiki/GridPP_Answers_to_10_Easy_Network_Questions
still valid or has anything changed?
3) Check that Universities have network security teams.
4) Discuss the collection of contact details of the individual sites.
5) Do accounting/fairshare analysis as it has been done in London tier2.
6) Check the status of sites in their Tier-2 with respect to the Torque
vulnerability/patch
7) Review notes on site status in the wiki to ensure they reflect
accurately each site's status.
8) T2 Technical boards to discuss feasibility of cross-supporting sites
to meet MoU.
Even if some of the questions can be probably be answered right away.
I'd like to organise a face to face northgrid technical meeting like the
one we had few months ago to go through these issues. I propose to go to
lancaster if they kindly host us.
cheers
alessandra
