− | '''Monday 27th May'''
| |
− | * There was a [https://indico.cern.ch/event/315412/ multicore taskforce] meeting today.
| |
− | * A WLCG ops coordination meeting took place last [https://indico.cern.ch/event/313440/ Thursday 22nd May]. The [https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/LCG/WLCGOpsMinutes140522 meeting minutes] are now available. New items of relevance:
| |
− |
| |
− | ** A reminder of the need to register for the WLCG workshop.
| |
− | * Andrea Manzi takes over the maintenance of the baseline versions as WLCG Middleware Officer.
| |
− | * T0: Quattor phase-out - CERN is currently migrating all centrally managed services from Quattor to a new Puppet based Configuration Management system.
| |
− | * DPM 1.8.8 was released last week including a new gridftp component, which has issues with the gridftp implementation in FTS2 (currently still used only by CMS); FTS3 transfers are OK. Since CMS is anyway pushing to switch to FTS3, the affected sites which have already upgraded are asked to change their PhEDEx configuration to use FTS3. Sites which have not yet upgraded are encouraged to wait for the DPM fix which is in testing and is probably going to be released next week.
| |
− | * ALICE: Returns to high production activities.
| |
− | * ATLAS: Rucio full chain testing starting now. All but US sites moved. LFC at CERN no longer used.
| |
− | * CMS: SAM test for glexec critical on May 19th. Test for xrootd fallback goes critical soon.
| |
− | * LHCb: Mostly MonteCarlo production and user analysis during the last 2 weeks.
| |
− | * Tracking Tools: GGUS release on the 26th. The alarms for UK and USA will be done on the 27th. The rest, on the 26th
| |
− | * FTS3: CMS opening GGUS tickets to sites to complete migration to FTS3 in PhEDEx Debug.
| |
− | * glexec: 12 tickets still open (-3 on last meeting). Related - there have been many tickets for ARGUS instabilities recently, but the experts are actively following up, hopefully a solution will be found soon.
| |
− | * Middleware readiness: an internally developed solution is going to be used to track middleware versions instead of pakiti, since this would need to be extended anyway.
| |
− | * SHA2: ATLAS discovered that Condor still uses an old CREAM client that does not support RFC proxies which blocks the introduction of the new CERN VOMS servers.
| |
− | * WMS decom: hard deadline is 31st of October since the SAM WMS machines are Quattor-managed
| |
− | * IPv6: Please complete the [https://www.gridpp.ac.uk/wiki/2014_IPv6_WLCG_Site_Survey site survey].
| |
− | * N&T (network and transport) metrics: New group with kick-off soon. Propose two sub-groups:
| |
− | ** Deployment, commissioning and maintenance of the tools providing network and transfer metrics (FAX, AAA, FTS, perfSONAR, etc.) - versions and configuration tracking (parameter tuning), operational issues, etc.
| |
− | ** Higher-level services that will make use of the provided metrics (PhEDEx, Panda, Rucio) - technical aspects of existing metrics (latency, measurement methodology, API access, etc.), identification of missing metrics, data analytics on archived data.
