RAL Tier1 Operations Report for 5th August 2015
Review of Issues during the week 29th July and 5th August 2015. |
- There have been further problems with network connectivity caused by a failure of our secondary (and currently only) router. There was one as reported last week on Tuesday (28th July). At the time of last week's meeting another was ongoing. This outage lasted around five hours (???). There were problems both in getting the router back up and then in the propagation of routing information via the RIP protocol. There was then a third outage - lasting around an hour on Sunday morning (2nd August). There was a long planned scheduled intervention on 4th August when an engineer from the router vendor was present. As a result of this intervention and associated discussions we believe these problems are largely understood and we are again running with a resilient pair of network routers.
Resolved Disk Server Issues |
- None.
Current operational status and issues |
- The post mortem review of the network incident on the 8th April is being finalised.
- The intermittent, low-level, load-related packet loss over the OPN to CERN is still being tracked.
- There are some on-going issues for CMS. These are a problem with the Xroot (AAA) redirection accessing Castor; Slow file open times using Xroot; and poor batch job efficiencies.
Ongoing Disk Server Issues |
- None
Notable Changes made since the last meeting. |
- During yesterday's intervention on the Tier1 routers a number of problems were understood. We again have a resilient pair of routers which are running the latest production firmware and the RIP protocol is enabled.
- The test of the updated worker node configuration (with grid middleware delivered via CVMFS) continues on a one whole batch of Worker Nodes. We now propose continuing with the rollout to more worker nodes. (There is a complication in that some OS patches are being applied to these nodes now - and that will also we tested before extending the rollout).
- Investigative work into the ongoing issues for CMS Castor. This included putting the CMS xroot reads through the Castor scheduler again.
Declared in the GOC DB |
Service | Scheduled? | Outage/At Risk | Start | End | Duration | Reason |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Whole site | UNSCHEDULED | WARNING | 04/08/2015 15:00 | 05/08/2015 15:00 | 24 hours | Warning on Site following investigations of problem with network router. |
Advanced warning for other interventions |
The following items are being discussed and are still to be formally scheduled and announced. |
- Upgrade of Castor disk servers to SL6. We plan to do this during the second part of August (17-28). Rollout plan to be discussed.
- Upgrade of the Oracle databases behind Castor to version 11.2.0.4. This is a multi-step intervention. Whilst we need to confirm exact dates we are looking at the following days in September:
- Tuesday 8th: day's Outage for Atlas & GEN.
- Tuesday 15th: at risk on Atlas & GEN.
- Thursday 17th: day's Outage for ALL instances.
- Tuesday 22nd: day's at risk for ALL instances
- Thursday 24th: Half day outage for ALL instances.
Listing by category:
- Databases:
- Switch LFC/3D to new Database Infrastructure.
- Update to Oracle 11.2.0.4. This will affect all services that use Oracle databases: Castor, Atlas Frontier (LFC done)
- Castor:
- Update SRMs to new version (includes updating to SL6).
- Update the Oracle databases behind Castor to version 11.2.0.4. Will require some downtimes (See above)
- Update disk servers to SL6.
- Update to Castor version 2.1.15.
- Networking:
- Increase bandwidth of the link from the Tier1 into the RAL internal site network to 40Gbit.
- Make routing changes to allow the removal of the UKLight Router.
- Cabling/switch changes to the network in the UPS room to improve resilience.
- Fabric
- Firmware updates on remaining EMC disk arrays (Castor, FTS/LFC)
