Operation problems
LHCb DB thread count increase worked; on Monday plan to reduce back to original setting (maybe in 2-3 steps)
SOLID access/ceritificate issues GGUS131840. Waiting for reply from SOLID.
Operation news
Plans for next week
Behind-the-scenes work on cattle headnodes.
Long-term projects
CASTOR stress test improvement - Script writing, awaiting testing and validation
Headnode migration to Aquilon - Stager configuration almost complete; functional tests pass. Focus on features but not personalities
Target: Combined headnodes running on SL7/Aquilon - implement CERN-style 'Macro' headnodes.
Draining of remainder of 12 generation HW - waiting on CMS migration to Echo. No more draining ongoing.
Actions
RA to check if the disk server setting, changed to bring disk servers back more quickly after a CASTOR shutdown, is still in place
RA/GP: Run GFAL unit tests against CASTOR. Get them here: https://gitlab.cern.ch/dmc/gfal2/tree/develop/test/
GP: Turn CASTOR SRMs & other Aquilonised nodes from clients to servers
GP/RA to chase up Fabric team about getting action on RT197296(use fdscspr05 as the preprod stager - replacement for ccse08)
Staffing
GP out until mid-January from Tuesday
RA on call
