Dear GridPP users,
Due to relocation into the new machine room of most of the RAL Tier1
resources, the WMS service will be affected as it follows:
- Wed 17 Jun 2009 09:00 UTC (10am UK) - lcgwms01, lcgwms02,
lcgwms03.gridpp.rl.ac.uk are entering 'drain' mode: no more job
submissions allowed, existing jobs will be permitted to finish, output
retrievals also allowed
- Thu 25 Jun 2009 07:00 UTC (8am UK) - all above WMS servers (+ the LB
servers) will be stopped and ready for moving
- Fri 26 Jun 2009 11:00 UTC (12pm UK) - WMS and LB servers hopefully
back on-line (in the same configuration: lcgwms01 and 02 - LHC VOs only,
lcgwms03 - non-LHC VOs only)
As alternative resources where to submit jobs during this interval, you
may want to use the other three WMS servers available in the UK -
wms00.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk, svr022.gla.scotgrid.ac.uk,
svr023.gla.scotgrid.ac.uk, but this will imply reconfiguring the UIs and
submission mechanisms.
The supported VOs for each of these WMS servers can be found using the
'ldapsearch' command
i.e. ldapsearch -x -H ldap://wms00.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk:2170 -bo=grid | grep
-i AccessControlRule | sed -e "s/.* //"
however this is not a guarantee that job submissions will work for
listed VOs. The recommendation is to check with the site admins for
proper confirmation.
Best regards,
