Loukik Kundarimoti(Going Operational-process)
---------------------------------------------

 -Processes aiming at achieving high levels of customer/user satisfaction.
        -Follow ITIL framework
(Brief explanation of each process).
        -Service Desk Function
        -Incident Management Process
        -Problem Management Process
        -Change Management Process
        -Configuration Management Process
        -Release Management Process
        -Service Level Management Process
        -Availability Management Process
Who will participate and lead in those processes?
Maybe some diagrams to explain this.

In Detail

Release management process

 -Responsible for roll-out of new and changed software
        -Strategy/release policy
        -Planning       
        -Design
        -Implementation

Also needed

 -Documentation at Designining Stage
        Functional and Interface Specification
        Specification of Metadata config File
        Specification of Property files

 -Installation at Implementation Stage 
        Specification of Installation Actions

 -Release Candidate at the end of Implemantation

This comes down finally to the:

Handover Procedure:
-------------------
        -Verification of documents
        -Software testing
        -Installation testing

If a process has passed those tests then its included at the perfSONAR Bundle.
If not then the whole process is repeated. Many iterations possible.

be common for all activities.
