Site status and plans

Page for tracking site status and plans
This page has been created to provide a central GridPP reference page that allows the project to understand the status and plans of each site for pending and future middleware upgrades. It can be updated by the site administrators concerned or the Tier-2 (deputy) coordinators.
Background to batch system memory request for details:
Put here the percentage of your cluster on SL5 and/or an indication when nodes will be moved to SL5.
Record in this area the current version of the SRM and dates of any expected upgrades.

Current status (date): (19 April 2011)
- StoRM 1.6.2: se03
- Storm 1.6 supports checksums and better permission checking. - This is an early adopters release and is now in production at QMUL.
Planned upgrade: 1.6.3 when available. Current blocker is that it doesn't report space used correctly.
Comments: After some initial teething troubles, StoRM 1.6 seems to be running well - 19 Apr 2011. New storage to be brought online very soon.
Current status (19 April 2011): Not yet deployed.
Planned deployment: We plan to deploy ARGUS and glexec soon, but will need a version compatible with our tarball worker node install.
Comments: We do not currently have the manpower to be beta testers of this.
Current status (date): (23 Mar 2011) Deployed
Planned deployment: 1 Cream CE deployed. We will convert one of our remaining lcg-CEs to Cream and decomission the remaining lcg-CEs
