=== Monitoring ===
 
We have developed a monitoring tool called [http://gridportal-ws01.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk/gridload/00_example_webpage.html Grid Load] that allows to see the number of jobs in any given state. For more details please see the [http://gridportal-ws01.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk/gridload/00_PLEASE_README.html Readme].
 
=== Real Time Monitor ===
 
View the state of the grid !!! It's awesome ;-)
 
Joking aside, this is a very useful tool to explain the grid to non-experts. Sometimes a picture does say more than 1000 words.

    Requirements = Member("GRIDPP-LT2", other.GlueHostApplicationSoftwareRunTimeEnvironment);

Contacting Sites

The preferred mechanism for contacting London sites is GGUS since it allows to track the issues. Please make sure to set the site name in the subject line.

  • If you have a request for London in general please contact the London Tier2 Manager
  • If you want to have a direct contact with the site admins please use the emails in the table above.


Supported virtual organisations (VOs)

This place is a good starting point.
