Site Validation Table (Jeff)

• Gratia problems (seen on CIT_CMS_T2 and LBNL)
• RSV SE probes need to be updated to point to new srm client directory (will use Fermi client)
• WLCG testing still ramping up
• SE Validation * LBL probes failing -- need to be chased down * Instructions for installing other probes can be found here * Gratia probes will be installed if an update of vdt dcache install is done (will need to manually enable gratia probes) * FNAL having problems with gratia reporting * Links to validation test suite that tests the femi client, space and replica manager can be found here . RPM there will provide files needed to test things * LBNL/UC_ITB will go through validation by May 27th

VO Validation (Abhishek)

• Things appear to be in good shape
• Green flags from 4 VOs, should be able to meet deadline for a majority of VOs
• ATLAS currently validating on UC_ITB
• CDF has validated opportunistic storage, now moving onto validating its application
• In context of CDF, problems with FNAL KCA's non-standard DN tokens.
• CIGI has validated opportunistic storage as well as application, at 4 sites. Will validate UC_ITB also
• CMS currently validating on UCSDT2-ITB1
• DOSAR gave a green flag
• Dzero ran into a problem at LBNL_DSD_ITB and will try to revalidate
• Fermilab will do another final run this week
• LIGO will try validating again at Caltech (will know today)
• nanoHub gave a green flag
• SBGrid is currently validating application (may try opportunistic storage if time exists)
• SDSS/DES gave green flag - also tested opportunistic storage on FNAL, will try again with BNL

Bugs / Action Items

• BDII / Cemon
• Dcache-gip / token info provider has an exception

Documentation (Rob)

• Rob Gardner is going through pages and commenting using review status page as guide
• Questions/comments will appear over time
• We'll need to review several pages to make sure information is still up to date
• After review, reviewers can provide comment and name at the bottom of the page
• Any page with problem should have the completion flag changed from 3 to 2 so that it'll appear on the review status page
• Will have a session on Tuesday to see if people are willing to review pages / documentation
• New rsv / registration documentation needs to be reviewed
• Will need to make sure that references to configure-osg.sh updated
• Need to remove orphaned pages

AOB

• None
