Plan and milestones for the creation the new ROC Canada

• ROCName: ROC Canada
  
• StartDate: 28-Oct-09
  
• DueDate: 29-Dec-09
  
• Status: Done
  

In all of the following, we will assume that both parties have read the document on the creation of a new ROC.

Plan

Design of the Infrastructure

The needed infrastructure is defined in the general document. The infrastructure would need to be defined well in advance, at least one month/3 weeks prior to the starting of the operations.

Starting the ROC infrastructure

The following is the minimal set of tasks/functions that need to start before the new ROC is created.

• Participation in the ROC CERN ROD activities to get familiarity with the infrastructure and procedure
• Participation to the OPS meeting
• Participation to the SA1 coordination meeting

In addition it would be good if the following started at the same time:

• Operating Nagios
• Operating the top level BDII

Tasks

• Installation of the certification infrastructure
• Communication of the ROC security contact and mailing list to Romain Wartel.
• Communication to GGUS of the ROC user support mailing list address

For ROC Canada

For ROC CERN

• Check regular participation to the OPS meeting
