RAL Tier1 Operations Report for 11th March 2015
Review of Issues during the week 4th to 11th March 2015. |
- On Thursday (26th Feb) there was a problem with our Argus server that stopped batch job submission starting for an hour or so.
- A problem was uncovered by LHCb when a particular file could not be read from Castor. A manual fixup enabled access to the file again. However, investigations showed a problem when the file was created a few weeks ago - which was the second occurrence of a rare bug in Castor.
- Five files have been declared lost to CMS. These were all picked up by the checksum checker at various times in the last weeks.
Resolved Disk Server Issues |
- GDSS757 (CMSDisk - D1T0) failed again early on Friday morning (27th Feb). As this server has failed multiple times it has been put back readonly and is being drained.
Current operational status and issues |
- We are running with a single router connecting the Tier1 network to the site network, rather than a resilient pair.
Ongoing Disk Server Issues |
- None
Notable Changes made this last week. |
- Removed DNs from FTS3 monitoring messages
- Cap on maximum number of ALICE batch jobs raised from 3500 to 6000.
- A new Stratum-1 system for the cern.ch domain set-up.
