Hi Chris
We discussed this briefly on Tuesday in relation to a request from Raja "Could I get a list of the UK Tier-2 sites with CVMFS installed please. We are looking to run some productions on the Tier-2s and it will make life easy if we know that CVMFS is installed".
We concluded that CVMFS was available (though not necessarily configured for LHCb) at all but Bristol, EFDA-JET and Durham. The request highlights an LHCb intention to increase usage of CVMFS. This may be a basic question, but Is there a query to tell for whom CVMFS is available at a site?
Thanks,
Jeremy
