It has been a background task of mine for too long to get some NGS sites certified in EGI. There is some problem with WMS jobs getting their payload to the WN via the job wrapper. No tftp or something. The NGS WMS has some workround.

If any sites do have an lcg-ce in front of their ngs cluster let me know and Kashif can launch nagios tests at it.

Do we know if the NGS sites are going to start appearing on EGI
monitoring systems like the COP Dashboard? Some of them are
running LCG-CEs or CREAM so presumably they could slot right in?
That might be a good way of getting some genuine integration of
the UK NGI.

Thanks
