Hi,
As part of the preparations for the move to the new computer building the
FTS agent was moved to alternative hardware last Thursday. However, the
system has been struggling.
In order to resolve this the change will be reversed tomorrow morning
(Wednesday 4th February). This will require an outage of the FTS and this
has been scheduled in the GOCDB from 8 to 10 am. Like last Thursday,
transfers should not be lost from the system. The web service will remain
up, so the status of submitted transfers will still be available via the
command-line tools, and it will be possible to submit new jobs.
Unfortunately it has still not yet been possible to finalise the date for
the move to the new computer building and therefore more detailsed plans
for the move of FTS (as well as other services) have not been announced.
