5. Contribution to SA1 Tasks
TSA1.1.3: Monitoring and enforcement of SLAs:
A web page has been developed inside the SWE Portal to show the status of the SLD signature process and to keep track of specific site modifications to the default SLD conditions:
SLD signature sessions have been celebrated in several events: IberGrid 08, SWE SA1 PCM Madrid, and EGEE'08
14 of 21 sites have signed the SLD

7. Contribution to SA1 Tasks
TSA1.1.7: Operation of national or regional certification authorities and registration authorities:
Review of CESGA's RA policy to allow using digital certificates from FNMT or DNI-e to sign the certificate's requests, without the need for the user to come personally to CESGA's installations.
During the given period 32 certificate's requests have been processed: 27 for servers and 5 for users.

Installation of a regional Nagios server for SWE federation: added PIC, LCG-USC, LIP and E-CA-IAA sites
Improved SWE SAM monitoring map and alert functionality: possibility to monitor VOs different than OPS
Updating SWE SAM and GSTAT monitoring page to include new CEs in the ROC
OAT: Attendance to meetings, collaboration in MSA1.1: Operations Automation Strategy
CESGA QR2, SA1-SWE Partner Coordination Meeting 2, Oct

12. What are the deviations?
PPS Deployment test coordination:
Some services are not being tested because no partner is responsible for them. Also in some cases they are not tested because the responsible partner is on holidays. To solve this issue we are building a complete list of services and looking for a responsible for each service as well as a “backup” site in case the primary responsible can not do the testing.
CESGA QR2, SA1-SWE Partner Coordination Meeting 2, Oct

13. What is the main success in the reporting period?
The main success was the work done to accomplish the interoperability between EGEE, I2G, IMATH, FORMIGA and NGI-ES.
CESGA QR2, SA1-SWE Partner Coordination Meeting 2, Oct

14. What is the main issue in the reporting period?
The main issue was gLite3.1 migration
Some bugs in critical services were found. In some cases, we had to wait for a new patch to solve these critical problems.
PPS Deployment Test Activity Issue:
As coordinators of the pre-deployment test activity, we had an issue on August with the package lcg-sam-client-sensors that had erroneous dependencies with GFAL-client package.
The problem was not detected because the package was erroneously included under glite-torque package instead of glite- WN. Glite-WN was tested but since we are using glite-SGE_utils instead of glite-torque the lcg-sam-client-sensors were not tested and the bug passed to production. No other partner with glite- torque tested this release.
