Long-term projects
Headnode migration to Aquilon - Stager configuration and testing complete. Aquilon profiles for lst and utility nodes compile OK. Replicate current RAL setup as an intermediate step towards the making 'Macro' headnodes.
HA-proxyfication of the CASTOR SRMs
Target: Combined headnodes running on SL7/Aquilon - implement CERN-style 'Macro' headnodes.
Draining of remainder of 12 generation HW - waiting on CMS migration to Echo. No more draining ongoing.
Draining of 4 x 13 generation disk servers from Atlas that will be deployed on genTape
Draining of 10% of the 14 generation disk servers
Actions
RA/BD: Run GFAL unit tests against CASTOR. Get them here: https://gitlab.cern.ch/dmc/gfal2/tree/develop/test/
GP/RA to chase up Fabric team about getting action on RT197296(use fdscspr05 as the preprod stager - replacement for ccse08)
Miguel to determine of there is a need to have a nagios test for checking the number of entries on the newrequests table
GP to generate a ralreplicas version for repack
RA to organise a meeting with the Fabric team to discuss outstanding issues with Data Services hardware
Staffing
RA on call
GP out on Wed 14/2
