Deployment: Current state, plans for next 6 months, issues raised.

• sites that are up except:
  • umich - 4 sites up, 8 not. need to coordinate with local person, waiting now for that. they are having switching problems, dying hardware, (mis-configured?).
  • need to request an IT contact
  • had to buy a new KVM - that turned out not to be the problem, but a mis-configured switch there. extra KVM is at Vandy, so we have a spare

• need a technical contact/site user level agreement for what is required.

• UFL and UMich are only places without an IT contact, and this may be what we have at these places.

• deploying latest depot code on all depots as we speak.

• Oak Ridge - not brought up yet.
  • productive meeting end of March
  • we will be put outside ORNL's perimeter
  • same area that TeraGrid hardware is
  • so we could be part of TeraGrid...
  • Dan has some ideas for tests to run across the TeraGrid network
  • and John will integrate with his activities
  • communication between David Giles (at ORNL) and Bobby to get those boxes online. John is ultimately responsible for anything that happens but Bobby and David have a plan that he accepts.
  • David will have SUDO persmissions account on the depot hardware, Bobby will start this as soon as Michigan is done

• New sites?
  • First one below is solid, second has been offered, the rest...???
  • UTK - Gerald R.
  • LoC - if they want...
  • AmericaView sites? Wisconsin? Alaska?
  • Meeting of the executive committee?
  • Further depot deployments should be driven by applications...
  • OSG?
