|              | *c-COD Team*   |
| *From*  |	 ROC Italy |
| *To*      | ROC France |

   * Report from cCOD:
<i>Handover Log:
   * some expired tkts (ROD_CANADA, ROD_ICALG) that were solved
   * other with expiration date extended due to downtimes (ROD_NE)
   * other expired tkt from which there is no answer: ROC_CANADA - #54707 (APEL),
   * an expired tkt for SAMPA (ROC_LA) - that seems had lost the connection with the alarm, no action has been taken by ROD_LA
   * 2 tkt for CERN_PROD - both seem because of middleware probl: #53931 (CREAM-CE) has a "suggested fix" - but was not applied; #54424 - APEL problem, expired</i>

*Maite:* What is the procedure when a ticket expires?<BR>
*Helene:* It goes to the OCC and is discussed at this meeting.<BR>

The two CERN tickets will be checked off-line.

---++++ Fixing MPI sites (from the MPI WG)

   <i>Dear Maite (CC. Steven)

      It seems that already today some sites are starting to fix their MPI problems :)

      We also got a few reactions wondering about this sudden urge to fix MPI site problems now. It would certainly help if the the ROCs receive an explanatory e-mail about the MPI Task Force mission, containing also the link with to the official documentation to MPI Support in EGEE, meaning this one:

      https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/EGEE/MpiTools

      that each ROC should distribute it to their sites.

      Many people is concerned because they have followed some documentation which
      is also online coming from SEE Grid, and particular to certain cluster in
      Budapest.

      There are reasons today for being optimistic, because people are fixing the
      issues, and mpi-start continues to work without any problem in the CREAM CE
      (see
      http://indico.ifca.es/indico/getFile.py/access?contribId=10&sessionId=1&
      amp;resId=1&materialId=slides&confId=249
      )

      However, in the timelife of EGEE we can probably only fix the current sites,
      and arrange properly the documentation. Any other thing like new features of
      the middleware will have to waitt for future developments. See here for
      status of mpi-start:
      http://indico.ifca.es/indico/getFile.py/access?contribId=2&sessionId=0&a
      mp;resId=0&materialId=slides&confId=249

      cheers,
      Isabel

---++++ Instances of out of date services in the grid

<i>Attached </i>[TO THE AGENDA]<i> you can find a list of instances of services that are “out-of-date” according to the “list of supported service versions” wiki page, here: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/EGEE/SupportedServiceVersions </i>

   * *Nick:* Please can each ROC go through the list and pick out any of their sites. Then they should contact their sites and ask them to update the services that are out-of-date. <BR>
     *Angela:* What about if a site needs to keep an old version of a service for a VO they support? Do we then force sites to update or take their services off-line? <BR>
     *Nick:* No. If a site gives a good reason for needing to keep an unsupported version of a service, they can do this. _However_, they must understand that they will not get any support for this service and that if a security issue is found with the service, they may then be forced to either upgrade or take off-line that service.

---+++ Newly Created Action Items
<!-- 
    This is an example action item, just add new action items here. 
   Please delete the example one.
   Note the example gets expanded in the template,
   Please when you duplicate delete the  uid="xxxx" , closed="DD-MMM-YYYY", and closer="Main.SteveTraylen"
       they will be added automatically with an increment.

   A valid action item should have a "created", "creator", "due", "state" and "who". 

   Obviously the state should be "open" not "closed".
