17 June 2019 Report for the Experiments Liaison Report (17/06/2019) is here.
- Ongoing, we are seeing high outbound packet loss over IPv6. Central networking performed a firmware update to the border routers but this didn’t resolve the issue. Plan to move connections to the new border routers in Mid June. Will do this before trying to debug any further.
11 June 2019 Report for the Experiments Liaison Report (10/06/2019) is here.

- Three certificates were revoked mistakenly on ARGUS on Thursday. All SAM tests failed until this was fixed the next morning. Batch farm also did not start any new jobs during this time. We used this accidental draining to reboot nodes that needed to pick up security patching.
- LHCb Castor instance has been completely disabled for LHCb and will be decommissioned.
- Brian Davies has transferred from his role as GridPP Tier-2 Storage Support Officer and has joined the Tier-1 Production Team. Although this has happened with immediate effect he will still be available for ad-hoc/informal storage support.

Tue 9th July 2019
LHCb has added this to their requirements:
Sites not having an SRM installation must provide:
Tue 16th April 2019
Minor change to LHCB requirements in Approved VOs:
- Sites having migrated to the Centos7 (including "Cern Centos7") operating system or later versions are requested to provide support for singularity containers.
https://www.gridpp.ac.uk/wiki/GridPP_approved_VOs#VO_Resource_Requirements
Tue 2nd April 2019
Changes to Approved for DUNE (and LZ)
There is a new "Approved VOs" document showing new settings for DUNE. And, since both LZ's voms servers now show up in the EGI Portal, I've removed the (now spurious) entry for voms.hep.wisc.edu that was formerly being inserted by hand.
https://www.gridpp.ac.uk/wiki/GridPP_approved_VOs
I've also created a new set of RPMs (each has all LSC, VOMS, and XML for one VO) for all approved VOs. See Approved VOs doc for details, version is 1.9.
Sites with DUNE services need to update using whatever method they employ.
Special note: Since voms1.fnal.gov changed yesterday, I've updated documentation for that right away. But voms2.fnal.gov remains as it is until 23rd April (3 weeks). I'll update documentation for that when it is closer. Staggering the updates like this gives a time margin, so any particular site can have at least one service properly configured at any time. But it does mean that two site updates are needed; one now, and one in three weeks. However, since it's sufficient for only one (of the two) voms servers to be configured properly, sites could save effort and wait until (say) 19th April, then update both at once. But I can't dictate what site admins should do. It's your call.
