Operation problems
gdss762 was removed from production and it is now back in read-only mode
aliceDisk run out of space - VO's responsibility
Operation news
vCert is back in production
Patching of the
Plans for next week
Patching of the Neptune and Pluto DB and testing of switching over to R26 on Thu 01/03
Patching of the Juno database on 7th of March: CASTOR downtime from 10:30 to 13:30
GP: Fix-up on Aquilon SRM profiles: 1) Move nscd feature to a sub-dir task 2) Make castor/cron-jobs/srmbed-monitoring part of castor/daemons/srmbed feature task
Long-term projects
Headnode migration to Aquilon - Stager configuration and testing complete. Aquilon profiles for lst and utility nodes compile OK. Replicate current RAL setup as an intermediate step towards the making 'Macro' headnodes.
HA-proxyfication of the CASTOR SRMs: HA proxy is back and can be tested on preprod
Target: Combined headnodes running on SL7/Aquilon - implement CERN-style 'Macro' headnodes.
Draining of 4 x 13 generation disk servers from Atlas that will be deployed on genTape
Draining of 10% of the 14 generation disk servers
Actions
RA/BD: Run GFAL unit tests against CASTOR. Get them here: https://gitlab.cern.ch/dmc/gfal2/tree/develop/test/
Miguel to determine of there is a need to have a nagios test for checking the number of entries on the newrequests table
RA to organise a meeting with the Fabric team to discuss outstanding issues with Data Services hardware
GP to talk to Alastair about draining of 10% of 14 gen disk servers
GP/RA to write a Nagios test to check for large number of requests that remain for a long time
Staffing
RA on call
