Meeting note
1.Review the GISC Roles action list, presented by Lei
https://github.com/orgs/wmo-im/projects/61
Lei presented the action list of GISC agreed at the ET-WISOP Kick-off meeting, including short-term (to be completed by April 2025), mid-term (by September 2025) and longer-term (2026) tasks by GISCs.
Action1: All GISCs to update the Progress of 14 short-term tasks (to-do, In-progress, done). (Note: the tasks are not in a specific order.)
Action2: For those who cannot access this GitHub Repo Project, please share the GitHub handler with Hassan.
Action3: Global Broker operators should enable schema validation starting January 2025.
Action 4: GISCs to review metrics on discarded messages and to liaise with relevant centres. (After both GM(China) and GM (Morocco) review and finalize the dashboard prepared for GISCs)
Discussion 1: For “Leaf” and “Non-leaf” topics, clarification are needed in specification, which is Publishers “should” use leaf topics but “may” use non-leaf topics. The topic hierarchy validation is expected to be enabled by April 2025.
Discussion 2: GB (China) has already switched on discarding invalid messages. GB(France) will implement the schema discard soon.
2.Update on the Incident Management System (IMS) JIRA and its way forward
(Enrico) Presents Guide to WIS2 IMS (2-page document), explaining the workflow and basic points.
2 roles: reporter (to create a ticket)/assignee (to resolve a ticket)
5 status: Triage/To-do/In progress/In review/Done (Some status can be skipped)
Triage: when a ticket is created. a) GISC on-duty watch to triage; b) Both manual tickets and automatic tickets can be assigned to identified/known users directly.
To-do: ticket needs to be processed
In-progress: someone is working on this issue
In review: ticket is being reviewed. Reviewer can send it back to “In progress” as needed
Done: ticket is resolved
3 types of issues: incident/maintenance/support
4 priorities: low/medium/high/Very high
Labels: WIS2 components (such as Global Broker, Global Cache, Global Discovery Catalogue, Global Monitor, Node, WIS2_to_GTS_Gateway, GTS_to_WIS2_Gateway)
(Amro) presents the Jira system.
Action 1: Amro to check the bulk deletion of tickets.
Discussion 1: there is a need to improved search functionality within the interface
Discussion 2: Are sound alert available for the tickets? (Assignees and watchers will be receiving the email for tickets updates. Outlook can enable the sound alert whenever there is a new email.) (Note that: Users creating tickets can add multiple users. Users can also add themselves to be watching the tickets.)
3.GISC Watch
David Podeur will lead the task, working together with GISC Tokyo.
(Quite note from ET-WISOP kick-off meeting for this item)
Decision 1: no GISC watch from 16 December 2024 to 28 February 2025
Decision 2: GISC Jeddah to be included in the GISC Roaster
Decision 3: GISC Watch Guide (a doc format), David will lead this task.
Decision 4: period for each roaster: 2 weeks
4.WIS2 Operational Newsletter
The first WIS2 operational newsletter ( https://community.wmo.int/en/news/wis2-operational-newsletter )was issued on January 9th to 829 contacts, with a 90% delivery rate and 40% click rate.
The audience includes National Focal Points on WIS matters, SC-IMT ET/TT members, subscribers.
There have been 168 new subscribers in the past 30 days.
The newsletter will serve as the authoritative source for critical operational updates, system changes, new data releases, and service implementations.
ET-WISOP members are expected to provide information for the newsletter. Global broker operators and WIS2 centres can provide content for the newsletter.
The newsletter will be published on a regular basis for implementation status updates, and for planned critical operational updates, as well as transition updates. (at least 2 issues is a target)
5.AoB
Discussion: differences among different Global service operators is now observed from GM dashboard. It can lead to different interpretations of the status of WIS2 nodes.
Decision: Clarification is needed for each metric.
Decision: Two GMs should have exactly same dashboards.
Action: The Grafana Dashboard for all GISCs will be available and share with all GISCs after GM (China) and GM (Morocco) review and make some adjustments.
Next meeting:
3 February 13h-15h UTC, chaired by Thorsten.
