This page provides information about the status of probes released by the SAM team. These probes are provided by different software teams.

The responsibility of some probes is being transfered to EGI/EMI projects. More information on this transition can be found in EGI and EMI pages.

Due to this transition period, the table below reports the plans for each existing probe:

• probe to be maintained
• probe to be discontinued
