RAL Tier1 Operations Report for 25th October 2017
Review of Issues during the week 18th to 25th October 2017.
|
- On Tuesday (24th Oct) CMS were switched over to using xrootd.echo.stfc.ac.uk. This means that CMS jobs used xrootd.echo.stfc.ac.uk as the primary means of accessing local data via xrootd. However, this change was then reverted that evening as some errors were seen and are currently being worked through. See (GGUS#131299 below).
Resolved Disk Server Issues
|
Current operational status and issues
|
- There is a problem on the site firewall which is causing problems for some specific data flows. Discussions have been taking place with the vendor. This is having an effect on our data that flows through the firewall (such as to/from worker nodes).
Ongoing Disk Server Issues
|
Limits on concurrent batch system jobs.
|
Notable Changes made since the last meeting.
|
- Re-distribution of data in Echo onto the 2015 capacity hardware is ongoing.
Advanced warning for other interventions
|
The following items are being discussed and are still to be formally scheduled and announced.
|
Pending - but not yet formally announced:
- Re-distribute the data in Echo onto the 2015 capacity hardware. (Ongoing)
Listing by category:
- Castor:
- Update systems (initially tape servers) to use SL7 and configured by Quattor/Aquilon.
- Move to generic Castor headnodes.
- Echo:
- Re-distribute the data in Echo onto the remaining 2015 capacity hardware.
- Networking
- Extend the number of services on the production network with IPv6 dual stack. (Done for Perfsonar, all squids and the CVMFS Stratum-1 servers).
- Services
- The Production and "Test" (Atlas) FTS3 services will be merged and will make use of a resilient distributed database.
Entries in GOC DB starting since the last report.
