This document presents the tools, policies and procedures applied for the operation of the computing infrastructure provided by the StratusLab project. The document focuses on three services that are operated on a production-basis by the project, and in particular: the public IaaS cloud service, the virtual appliances repository and the virtualized grid sites running on top of the public cloud. For each one of the above services six aspects are considered: generic operations, maintenance and upgrades, third party access, security, monitoring and accounting, and quality of service. Many of these tools and procedures are already in place and are expected to evolve with the progress of the project, as more experience from the operation of these services is gained.
