Hello Everybody!
It's the first Monday of the month - which usually would mean a review 
of all the UK tickets. But due to power work in the Physics department 
tomorrow I'm not sure I'll be able to make tomorrow's meeting, so I've 
put off the full review till next week. So just a quickie today.

29 Open UK tickets this week.

A Sno+ query
https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=107880 (26/8)
Matt M asks the Tier 1 if they can help with one of their user problems, 
where the SUSE bound user is trying to use srmcp to access files at the 
Tier 1 and failing. The errors look to me like the client is connecting 
to a port whilst setting up the transfer. My advice would be to try an 
uberftp-like client, or muck around with using passive/active settings. 
Of course there could also be something Tier 1 specific getting in the 
way. Any wisdom appreciated. In Progress (27/8)

Another Sno+ Issue
Oxford: https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=107911 (27/8)
RALPP: https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=107910 
(27/8) - Still just in the "assigned" state.
These two tickets concern, as far as I can see, more or less the same 
problem. Sno+ can't set software tags on ARC CEs, and therefore are 
running into a spot of bother due to how they're using the tag's 
functionality (as a blacklisting mechanism). Ewan's been helping out on 
the Oxford ticket, but I don't think the RALPP one has been noticed yet.

QMUL
https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=107799 (21/8)
A friendly poke to remind Dan about this Sno+ ticket (moving VO_SW_DIR 
variable to point to the cvmfs area). In Progress (22/8)

ECDF
https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=107884 (26/8)
Atlas ticketed Edinburgh over webdav instabilities at the site - 
although it's mentioned in the ticket that they're seeing problems 
across the UK. Wahid mentions that this is due to the problems with 
webdav in DPM 1.8.7 and not all their pools are upgraded. Naught wrong 
with the ticket handling, but this link to so proto-webdav monitoring is 
interesting: http://sblunier.web.cern.ch/sblunier/webdavGridStatus/ In 
progress (probably will be closed soon) (28/8)

EFDA-JET
https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=107551 (7/8)
The JET CSIRT e-mail check ticket. After some confusion over the GGUS 
e-mailing (which I believe was broken for a while when these tickets 
went out) this has stalled. In progress (18/8)

That's all folks!
Matt
