Confirmed with jibel, vanguard ticket created to get accounts created
there for whoever need them (ev created one for me on drude) as I don't
know who need them.

That can probably be delayed until we deploy wossname which give us (ci)
accounts where we need ?

May be not related but I looked at a verizon node on q-jenkins and
noticed a /var/lib/jenkins for the remote FS root.

I didn't act on it as I was working on something else and had no idea
how to verify a fix but someone may be interested.

I couldn't find anything meaningful there probably because of the 'It
appears as though you do not have permission to view process
information...' messages I got here and there (connected with U/u)

Can I haz a demo and a crash course on how to add nagios alerts (I won't
mind a playbook instead of a demo ;).

     Vincent (so glad we got so much fixed in the last hours/days)
