RAL Tier1 Operations Report for 15th April 2019

Review of Issues during the week 8th April 2019 to the 15th April 2019.
  • We are seeing high outbound packet loss over IPv6. Investigations on hold as central networking do not have the expertise (Philip Garrad) available until after Easter.
  • High CMS job failure rates. Ongoing issues with meta-data spread across large files. Temporarily limited CMS job slots.
  • On Friday 5th April, gdss700 (LHCb) had a double drive failure and needed to be removed from production. Further problems were found, and the while we were able to return the disk to production briefly we were unable to copy all the files off and 1482 were lost.
  • On Wednesday 10th April, gdss811 (LHCb) had a failure of the disk running the operating system. This generation of hardware has OS disks that are very inconveniently located (glued to the underside of the motherboard!). Not yet returned to production as of the morning of the 15th.
  • On Thursday 11th April, unknown issue caused a significant fraction of docker containers (running jobs) to restart.

The test has cleared.

140511 cms solved urgent 01/04/2019 02/04/2019 CMS_Facilities T1_UK_RAL SAM job run out of date WLCG Issue is related to SAM dashboard.
140283 atlas closed less urgent 19/03/2019 03/04/2019 File Transfer UK RAL-LCG2: DESTINATION SRM_PUT_TURL error WLCG Corrected ownership of the CASTOR dir to atlas001:atlas
140278 cms closed urgent 19/03/2019 05/04/2019 CMS_Data Transfers Transfers failing from FNAL_Buffer to RAL_Disk WLCG we had a problem with ECHO mistakenly returning the correct size and checksum for files which failed transfers and were corrupt which resulted in them being marked as good by PhEDEx and then lying latent until they were accessed or transferred out.

Transfers recovered.

140210 atlas closed top priority 14/03/2019 02/04/2019 File Transfer Cannot access some files WLCG These files were lost from RAL-LCG2-ECHO_DATADISK, probably due to an FTS bug which should now be fixed. They were identified here because they were needed by the production team. The ticket submitter has now marked them lost in Rucio.

Independently, we have been analysing the results of the Rucio consistency checker. It identified 163 files lost from this disk. The 5 files listed in this ticket are among the 163. We will mark the remaining files lost in Rucio.

139990 cms closed urgent 01/03/2019 03/04/2019 CMS_AAA WAN Access T1_UK_RAL xrootd segfaulted WLCG The issue is intermittent and occasional. This segfault is most likely a known problem, which will be addressed in xrootd version 4.9, along with other fixes. RAL will install this when available.
