Hello
At today weekly ATLAS ADC meeting a deadline for a usage of glite nodes was discussed:
- gLite 3.2 middleware components no longer under security support (since 1st August 2012)
- EGI CSIRT expects migration away as soon as possible and no later than 1st October 2012
- From 1st November 2012 sites still deploying the unsupported gLite 3.2 software components mentioned above will be asked to migrate to supported software immediately or to shutdown services
- In Atlas sites in Roma and Frascatti (DPM sites) EMI-2 WNs are in production for a several weeks (but there is a problem with DPM libraries at 32 bits - see attached talk)
- upgrading DPM to EMI-2 not straightforward
- WLCG MB has also discussed the schedule for migration from glite to EMI (possibility to extend the end of glite3.2 beyond october)
- ATLAS cannot push sites to go fully to EMI
- ADC will issue an official position on this problem in the coming weeks.
Cheers
Elena
