Hi,
any comment on the use of glexec on the WNs would be apreciated. I know
that it is a late request...
cheers

Dear All
Tomorrow there is a GDB (happens monthly as I hope you know!) at CERN
with the following agenda:
http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=8485
If you have any important issues that you would like raised/discussed in
relation to any of these items (or others) please let me know. Current
items to be take up from the UK include:
1) Confirmation of experiment readiness to move to SL4
2) Confirmation that a well defined list of rpms required by the
experiments but not in the standard SL4 installation is available
(either as a list in the VO ID card for the experiment or as an
experiment meta-package).
3) To re-state that UK sites are generally opposed to running glexec on
worker nodes (see this for background
http://www.sysadmin.hep.ac.uk/wiki/Glexec). I have requested more
information about specific objections via the T2 coordinators.
4) Clarification on how vulnerabilities in experiment/VO code should be
handled.
Kind regards,
Jeremy
