Operation problems
* CMS unroutable file issue which was dealt with
* ChrisP reports that a functional test that used to run on lcgcadm05 doesn't work anymore (probably because the machine has been turned off)
* Should have been ported to castor-functional-test1 - maybe just needs repointing?
Operation news
* Phani confirmed that a DB flip-over to R26 is possible * Oracle patching on R26 and R89 DBs was successfully completed. Had a follow-up meeting to review... * Four 2013 generation disk servers deployed into genTape
Plans for next few weeks
* Attend GridPP meeting * Review and submit the CC for macroheadnodes
Long-term projects
Headnode migration to Aquilon - Stager, scheduler, utility and nameserver configuration mainly complete. Stager, scheduler, utility tested seperately and all together on preprod. Combined Stager, scheduler, utility and SRM features in one node which passes functional tests
No point to move Atlas and CMS to the macroheadnode setup since their d1t0 data are moving to Echo over the next two months
HA-proxyfication of the CASTOR SRMs: HA proxy set up has been tested on the SRMs
Target: Combined headnodes running on SL7/Aquilon - implement CERN-style 'Macro' headnodes.
Actions
Tell whether a Facilities functional test which was runningon on lcgcadm05 is running on castor-functional-test1
RA/BD: Run GFAL unit tests against CASTOR. Get them here: https://gitlab.cern.ch/dmc/gfal2/tree/develop/test/
RA to check if there is any outstanding action for Fabric
GP/RA to write a Nagios test to check for large number of requests that remain for a long time
Staffing
GP on call, RA on 15/4
