RAL Tier1 Operations Report for 2nd July 2018
| Review of Issues during the week 25th June to the 2nd July 2018.
|
- There is currently a scheduled three day period (July 24th - July 26th), where RAL Tier-1 will be undertaking server room circuit breaker testing. Although it is believed that these tests should not effect our services, such is the nature of these tests, all Tier-1 production services should be considered "At Risk" during this time. VOs are asked to give consideration with respect to possible unexpected outage to any high priority/critical jobs they may wish to run during this period.
- Tier-1 are currently undertaking a campaign of better monitoring of our smaller VOs and trying to provide a proactive approach to VOs usage (and where required, intervention).

Key: Atlas HC = Atlas HammerCloud (Queue RAL-LCG2_UCORE, Template 841); CMS HC = CMS HammerCloud
- GGUS ticket this morning ref xrootd - failing request were hitting the external gateway - it shouldn't.
- Lots of transfers with similar failures. All failing requests hitting xrootd servers are from CMs - None from Atlas.
- Not enough resource to handle requests.
- - 1. If they talk to the internal gateway will be redirected to the external - though this is not confirmed
- - 2. Mapping within the node/docker container is failing. A failing config somewhere, but TB doesn't think it's our fault as Atlas is running ok for the same config.
