---+!! Week of 201116

%TOC%

---++ WLCG Operations Call details

   * At CERN the meeting room is [[https://maps.cern.ch/mapsearch/mapsearch.htm?n=%5b%27513/R-068%27%5d][513-R-068]].

   * For remote participation we use the Vidyo system. Instructions can be found [[https://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=287280][here]].

---++ General Information
   * The purpose of the meeting is:
      * to report significant operational issues (i.e. issues which can or did degrade experiment or site operations) which are ongoing or were resolved after the previous meeting;
      * to announce or schedule interventions at Tier-1 sites;
      * to inform about recent or upcoming changes in the experiment activities or systems having a visible impact on sites;
      * to provide important news about the middleware;
      * to communicate any other information considered interesting for WLCG operations.
   * The meeting should run from 15:00 Geneva time until 15:20, exceptionally to 15:30.
   * The SCOD rota for the next few weeks is at ScodRota
   * Whenever a particular topic needs to be discussed at the operations meeting requiring information from sites or experiments, it is highly recommended to announce it by email to wlcg-scod@cernSPAMNOT.ch to allow the SCOD to make sure that the relevant parties have the time to collect the required information, or invite the right people at the meeting.
