Upgrade to AtlasSetup

I have changed the setup for my ATLAS jobs so it uses AtlasSetup (rather than AtlasLogin). The magic lines are:

RELEASE=xx.xx.xx
source $VO_ATLAS_SW_DIR/software/$RELEASE/cmtsite/asetup.sh AtlasOffline $RELEASE

VO_ATLAS_SW_DIR is set up automatically and you have to set RELEASE yourself. Since AtlasSetup is only available from Release 16 onwards, jobs going to sites without Release 16 will fail.

Steve's pages update

I have done some much needed maintenance and the gstat information is available again (from gstat2). There is also a new page giving the history of the ATLAS Hammercloud tests status http://pprc.qmul.ac.uk/~lloyd/gridpp/hammercloud.html.

ATLAS Tests now running natively on SL5

My ATLAS tests (and 'UK Tests') are now running in native SL5 mode on all sites where ATLAS release 15.6.3 (or above) is installed.

UK Tests Working Again

I've finally managed to get the UK tests working again. There were several problems that I won't go into. I have tried to make it a bit more robust and now the tests should start using the latest ATLAS release as soon as more than 50% of UK sites have it installed.

ATLAS Release 15

Today I finally got round to switching my ATLAS tests to using Release 15. I tried as soon as it came out but the tests all failed and so they did today (as you might have seen) until I finally fixed it this evening. I don't understand why it wouldn't work - I had to modify PYTHONPATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH by hand eventually.

SE SAM Tests removed

I have remove the 'SE' SAM tests as they are no longer run and are superceded by the 'SRMv2' ones.

SAM Updates

I have changed the main SAM tests from SRM to SRMv2. I have also added ATLAS specific SAM tests (to join CMS and LHCb ones). It is not clear if these are the right tests. Each SAM summary page now has a list of the tests being polled under the results table. If the experiments want different tests please let me know.
