4. 6047 Storage Accounting Summaries to Accounting Portal
Plan is to send all storage records to portal to allow them to test views before we firm up the form of the summary.
We have updated the sample a couple of times to include new sites publishing from dcache and DPM.

6560: Evaluate the impact in the current EGI accounting systems of the solutions to account users of robot certificates
e-Tokens solution from NGI-Italy looks feasible from the accounting pov
(No details of the VOMS solutions)
An extended UserDN would be transparent to Apel as long as it was transmitted as-is by BLAH.
The accounting portal would show the UserDN in appropriate views (site, VO, user).
User view might need modifying as many science gateway users won’t have certificates and the accounting portal uses certs to control access. These users will probably use the science gateway to see their usage..
Perhaps a Science Gateway view might be needed.
Issue was discussed at DIRAC F2F 13/1/14
