 test 117 has shown missmatch with VO_ATLAS_DEFAULT_SE: srm.ihep.ac.cn 
 should be OK now
GRIF : GRIFOPN test (as soon as it is available) Total of 1000 jobs will
be distributed to ATLAS CEs with following DS available being accessed
from LAL, SACLAY and LPNHE
       - GRIF-SACLAY_MCDISK: 332
       - GRIF-LPNHE_MCDISK: 334
       - GRIF-LAL_MCDISK: 457
LPC : to be planned when new storage arrays installation and network  
      upgrade done

File access modes used by Ganga Jobs

Currently if users are submitting Ganga jobs with the LCG backend, the posix I/O access is the default method to access files (j.inputdata.type='DQ2_LOCAL')

One of the alternative access mode used by ST tests is the FileStager mode, which copies the input files in a background thread of the athena event loop usinglcg-cp from the local SE to the worker node tmp area. (j.inputdata.type='FILE_STAGER') This mode still needs a bit of improvements to gain full stability, but as demonstrated good performance at some (but not all) sites. Two access modes may be used during ST tests.
