RAL Tier1 Operations Report for 21st June 2017
Review of Issues during the week 14th to 21st June 2017. |
- Problems with the Echo gateways were reported last week. These coincide with a large increase in requests. In response the xrootd gateway was stopped for a few days and a concurrent connection limit applied to the GridFTP gateways. High memory usage was observed and steps are being taken to rectify this.
Resolved Disk Server Issues |
- GDSS732 (LHCbDst - D1T0) failed early afternoon on Wednesday 14th June. It was returned to service the following day. One disk drive was replaced and one file declared lost from the failure.
- GDSS819 (LHCbDst - D1T0) failed in the early hours of Saturday morning (17th June). It was returned to service, initially read-only, later that day.
Current operational status and issues |
- We are still seeing a rate of failures of the CMS SAM tests against the SRM. These are affecting our (CMS) availabilities. CMS are also looking at file access performance and have turned off "lazy-download". The CMS SRM SAM test success rate has improved since the Castor 2.1.16 upgrade on the 25th May, although is still not 100%. It is still planned to re-visit this issue now Castor has been upgraded.
- There is a problem on the site firewall which is causing problems for some specific data flows. This was being investigated in connection with videoconferencing problems. It is expected that this is having an effect on our data that flows through the firewall (such as to/from worker nodes).
Ongoing Disk Server Issues |
- None
Limits on concurrent batch system jobs. |
- CMS Multicore 550
Notable Changes made since the last meeting. |
- An internal (transparent) change to the Echo CEPH CMS pool was made to increase the number of placement groups. This is required before more hardware can be added and the total capacity upped.
Declared in the GOC DB |
Advanced warning for other interventions |
The following items are being discussed and are still to be formally scheduled and announced. |
Pending - but not yet formally announced:
- Increase OPN link to CERN from 2*10Gbit to 3*10Gbit links (delayed until 28th June).
- Firmware updates in OCF 14 disk servers.
- Upgrade the FTS3 service to a version that will no longer support the SOAP interface.
- Increase the number of placement groups in the Atlas Echo CEPH pool.
Listing by category:
- Castor:
- Move to generic Castor headnodes.
- Merge AtlasScratchDisk into larger Atlas disk pool.
- Echo:
- Increase the number of placement groups in the Atlas Echo CEPH pool.
- Networking
- Increase OPN link to CERN from 2*10Gbit to 3*10Gbit links.
- Enable first services on production network with IPv6 now that the addressing scheme has been agreed. (Perfsonar already working over IPv6).
- Services
- The production FTS needs updating. This will no longer support the SOAP interface. (The "test" FTS , used by Atlas, has already been upgraded.)
