RAL Tier1 Operations Report for 14th December 2016
| Review of Issues during the week 7th to 14th December 2016. |
- There was a problem with the Atlas Frontier service on Wednesday (7th). The excess load caused by particular Atlas user. The services on the squid systems needed several restarts through the day and evening.
- Since yesterday (Tuesday 13th Dec) we are seeing high load on CMSTape in Castor - and are failing SAM tests as a result.
| Resolved Disk Server Issues |
- GDSS657 (lhcbRawRdst - D0T1) failed on Saturday morning, 10th Dec. It was put back read-only later that day and the eight files awaiting migration to tape were flushed off. The server was then taken down on Monday (12th) for further investigation - which was transparent to the VO. No faults were found and the server was returned to service yesterday (13th Dec.)
| Current operational status and issues |
- There is a problem seen by LHCb of a low but persistent rate of failure when copying the results of batch jobs to Castor. There is also a further problem that sometimes occurs when these (failed) writes are attempted to storage at other sites.
- We had been reporting a problem with intermittent, low-level, load-related packet loss over external connections. We have been tracking this - particularly since the replacement of the UKLight router. The rate of packet loss has reduced and we now conclude there is no longer a significant problem. Loss rates seen are comparable with other sites.
| Ongoing Disk Server Issues |
- None
| Notable Changes made since the last meeting. |
- On Monday (5th Dec) the bulk of the HPE Worker Nodes (the second tranche of last year's procurement) were reinstalled with SL6 and put into production. This follows a period of testing with another configuration in readiness for CEPH deployment. (This item overdue from last week's report).
- On Thursday (8th Dec) The small LhcbUser disk pool was merged into the larger LhcbDst pool.
- FTS Database adjustments requested by ATLAS
- (Ongoing at time of meeting: Firmware updates of RAID cards on Clustervision '13 batch of disk servers.)
