I said that I would pass on to this list when the RAL dcache
had been upgraded. It was yesterday. Derek's mail describes
some of the changes that were done.

Reply-To: CSF Changes <[log in to unmask]>
I've upgraded the many machines that consist of the dCache cluster to version 1.6.6.1. The notable changes are:
Monitoring web pages are no longer on dcache.gridpp.rl.ac.uk but are instead on dcache-head.gridpp.rl.ac.uk, similarly for the ssh admin interface
dcache.gridpp has been renamed pnfs.gridpp and now runs the dCache PnfsManager, pnfs and a postgresql database for pnfs data, this means that to nfs mount the /pnfs namespace you must now use pnfs.gridpp.rl.ac.uk rather than dcache.gridpp.rl.ac.uk
gftp0443 has been renamed dcache-head.gridpp and now runs all central dcache services except the PnfsManager.
gftp0442 has been renamed dcache.gridpp and now runs an srm only
Hyperthreading has been turned on on dcache-tape, dcache and pnfs.
pg350 has been upgraded to version 8.1.0 of postgresql and the old databases dumped out to a file.
The info provider for dcache.gridpp has not (yet) followed the srm service to the new node so I updated the bdii-update.conf file in /opt/bdii/etc on lcgce01.gridpp.rl.ac.uk to use the new name (pnfs.gridpp) for the host.
I've also run an SFT, and the Replica Management tests passed.
