| Item | Who | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Review of last meeting notes | DM Maintenance went well. No complaints (7/20/2018) | |
LSP in Chile | Unknown User (mbutler) | There were discussions on that CIlogon doesn't have a replicated service in Chile, and if connectivity to the US was lost, then the DAC would not function properly. Specifically the LSP because it depends on CIlogon. Most people thought it was okay that if the connectivity to the US was lost then the DAC LSP not functioning was okay... KT was going to add this to some of the documentation for Alex. |
| Next steps for the PDAC | DAX updates ongoing. Adam to be working on the notebook in the K8. DAX to K8. Qserv later this month. | |
| Discussion of LSP at LSST2018 | @mbutler | Short discussion of the web page for people without LSST dev accounts already. 2 separate types of accounts now. LSP (jhome only) and development "staff" accounts. The web page will be available for users starting at LSST-2018 to register for a jhome directory. This will allow them only during the conference to access the lsp without firewall access. (hotel IP addresses will be in the firewall exeption list) |
| DAX server reboots | @mbutler | Okay with folks to reboot and coordinate in the dm-pdac room. |
| cilogon servers | Unknown User (mbutler) | all applications on production cilogon servers now |
| DUO | Unknown User (mbutler) | we have passed out 4 DUO hardware tokens to users. Discussed Frossie having a test one. Michelle will check with Security. |
| Basney and sci-tokens | Need to coordinate in Email questions to Basney for Brian. | |
| PDAC Status | Gregory Dubois-Felsmann | |
| Schedule for IDM | Unknown User (mbutler) | schedule for forwarding tokens and some of the development work for Jim Basney's group. |
| WEBdav | Need to look into webdav development. We have a webdav server already that Greg runs for DBB and data transfer. I know that DES uses one. Brian will talk with Greg Daues. | |
| Tucson test stand | Unknown User (mbutler) | 500TB to 1PB of data to store at NCSA so that LSP can access it. Need to hear if this is really something we need to do at NCSA or not. |
| IHS-1229 | Simon Krughoff | DAX and Jellybean. Simon will follow up with Gregory. |
| Topics for next meeting |
Action items
Unknown User (mbutler) will go and find out about the cilogon replication sites in the US and pass those on to the team next meeting.
Unknown User (mbutler) will check with security on how a test duo token can be gotten. Can we have more than 1 DUO token for a single user. (hard and soft?)
