2. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 1 - Availability: Despite the efforts to keep it up and running, we see that it is not always available and queries fail sometimes. We had different type of problems : 1) with the database, occurred last year: located on the whole IN2P3-CC site. The situation should be more stable now 2) different glitches (especially with the Operations Dashboard): should be solved with the next version of the dashboard 3) Please send us email or open tickets when the portal is not available. This is complicated to know what happens one month ago. Increased Availability 2

3. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 Messages received more than once : Ops Portal cannot check on which mailing lists people are registered and people are registered on several lists! In the VO management tools, there will a connection between account portal and the VO. We can see the usage statistics from a short path in each VO action lists Need Discussion short paths are currently not implemented in the accounting portal Broadcast Messages and Accounting Statistics 3

4. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 Everytime a Security Nagios probe fails, an alarm is showed in the dashboard. In my opinion, the Security Dashboard should only show real security threads while the Security Nagios probe fails should be caught by other operation monitoring tools (ROD Dashboard?) since they are reporting a normal job sumission failure and not a security problems The CSRIT group has proposed recently a solution with a mapping on the important issue. The mapping is implemented since February, 16th. glitches of the Security dashboard We are not aware of that, please fill in a GGUS ticket when happens Security Dashboard 4

5. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 Occasional problems with inconsistency between regional and central installation still exists The situation is quite better. The integration of the virtual queues should solve the remaining issues. Better advertisement of newly added features Better documentation of Security Dashboard should be provided broadcast tool to announce the new release and the release notes are available on the Portal The documentation will be provided soon with the help of the CSIRT team. Inconsistency and documentation 5

6. www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 1) Automatic alert masquerading (hierarchy) Need a detailed RT 2) Flapping detection Internal discussion ongoing if this should be done on the NAGIOS or Ops Portal side. On SAM side can be implemented for simple tests, but not for the complex ones like CE. CE has its own state machine so switching on Nagios flapping mechanism would just cause problems (tested) 3)GUI Unintuitive, Slow, too Complicated The slowness will be reduced in the Operations Dashboard with the next version We will take into account some of the remarks about GUI in the next version Some other requirements should be refined (i.e “too complicated”) Improvements 6
