Closed Action Items

Number	Description	Assigned To	Due date	Date closed
71	ATLAS to check if they know of any conflicts between SL kernel version 2.6 and either the application software or the middleware. Progress on 2006-12-11: Atlas was not present at the meeting, we’ll check offline Progress on 2006-12-18: Alessandro DeSalvo says in respect of the ATLAS application there is no problem. The only issue might raise (but not sure at all) from the Oracle client in the production system (which anyway has only 4 instances in the all Grid) and the Data Management Clients in the VOBOXES. So as long as this discussion does not refer to VOBOXes, this is OK. The VOBOXes (only 10 nodes for atlas, one at each T1) will need to be considered some time soon. I will get in touch with Miguel for this. The action can be closed.	Simone	11/12/06	18/12/06
