RAL Tier1 Operations Report for 27th August 2018

Review of Issues during the week 20th August to the 27th August 2018.
  • Two major outages of IPv6 this week which impacted GODDB and FTS (primarily effecting ATLAS). The first started Thursday evening (~17:30 23/8/18), but was not resolved until ~22:00 24/8/18. The same fault happened again at ~15:20 25/8/18 and was finally resolved ~22:00 that evening. DS identified a problem on router5 where the IPv6 routes were not being advertised properly and has added a static route to fix the issue.

Notes from Meeting.
  • The recent problems with Echo were discussed. A summary is also in the Operations report. Several points:
  • Current situation is that we have “production” access running
  • Atlas and CMS have upper limits on batch jobs about equal to pledge.
  • The additional memory for the Dell storage nodes has arrived. This will be added – at least initially in a rolling upgrade. However, it is expected this may take up to something like 2 weeks. (At which point we expect to be able to give full access to Echo). Discussions on the best way to do the memory upgrades is ongoing.
  • Before the problem we had noted that the LHCb files came from Castor in a “bursty” way. It was suggested last week that we limit the FTS to smooth out this burstiness.
  • When discussing GGUS tickets: LHCb are seeing some file transfer failures between worker nodes and Castor. This to be escalated.
  • The requirement for us to be able to easily contact all users of Echo in the event of a problem was noted.
