6. Athens, 27-28 th May - 6 EGEE activities in Greece SA1: GRID Operations, Support and Management NA3: User Training and Induction NA5: Policy and International Cooperation

7. Athens, 27-28 th May - 7 Our collective aim SA1: build expertise and operational procedures that will allow Greece to: Integrate into European production-level infrastructure Operate a self-standing coherent Grid infrastructure Create teams of core experts for the future NA3: train and inform users, operators, etc. NA5: contribute to whitepapers, standards etc on the international stage If we do this, EGEE-2 will follow!

8. Athens, 27-28 th May - 8 SA1 objectives in Greece: detail Pre-production infrastructure: smaller sites with next generation m/w 8/5 support, crucial as real-life testbeds, for m/w and application testing Production infrastructure: only stable clusters with significant resources can be admitted to the EGEE production infrastructure 24/7 operation, supported by RC, ROC and CICs Run a Regional Operations Centre One in each federation Provide front-line support to users and resource centers Support new resource centers joining EGEE in the regions Support deployment and operations in the resource centers Key specific ROC services: security, helpdesk/TT, portal, monitoring, m/w certification, installation procedures, core Grid services, etc.

9. Athens, 27-28 th May - 9 NA3 objectives: overall and GR Train the GRID community and wider user community Establish a training center in each region 5 regions

10. Athens, 27-28 th May - 10 NA5 General GRID and specific technical whitepapers Aegean & AUEB2

11. Athens, 27-28 th May - 11 Pre-production service Smaller sites New generation m/w (EGGE-1 or LCG-2) comming soon (15 Jun 2004 ??) Crucial for testing and experimentation Activities similar to those for production service

12. Athens, 27-28 th May - 12 SA1 objectives: detail Core infrastructure services: Operate essential grid services Grid monitoring and control: Proactively monitor the operational state and performance, Initiate corrective action Middleware deployment and resource induction: Validate and deploy middleware releases Set up operational procedures for new resources Resource provider and user support: Coordinate the resolution of problems from both Resource Centres and users Filter and aggregate problems, providing or obtaining solutions Grid management: Coordinate ROCs and CICs Manage the relationships with resource providers via service-level agreements.

13. Athens, 27-28 th May - 13 Operations centers: hierarchy

14. Athens, 27-28 th May - 14 M/W: lifecycles From 1 st April 2004 Production grid service based on the LCG infrastructure running LCG-2 grid m/w In parallel develop a “next generation” grid facility Produce a new set of grid services according to evolving standards (web services) Run a pre-production service providing early access for evaluation purposes Will replace LCG-2 on production facility in 2005 Globus 2 basedWeb services based EGEE-2EGEE-1LCG-2LCG-1 EDGVDT... LCG EGEE...AliEn

16. Athens, 27-28 th May - 16 Specific responsibilities UoA+IASA+GRNET-HQ: m/w certification; release documentation, etc. Certification testbed by IASA/UoA. UoA+Demokritos: Guidelines for configuration and automatic installation tools. Run local installation testbed to verify installation procedures. CTI: helpdesk, knowledge database, coordination of the support procedures. UoC: EGEE-SEE website/portal. IASA, UoA, Auth, ICCS: host and co-manage necessary core GRID services, as agreed with GRNET-HQ. ICS-FORTH: Coordinate the monitoring service (GridIce server + database). Auth and Aegean: security. Auth operates the CA; Aegean provides support and specific authorisation activities, site security guidelines, RA. Demokritos: certification/installation + application specific support Training: all operations people should support! Specific responsibilities start ASAP
