Hello, It's been a while since we've had one due to Bank Holidays and Vacations, but today we'll have a full review of all the UK tickets. 30 Open UK Tickets this month. NGI https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114233 (10/6) The UK not publishing core counts at all sites. Some progress, but at last check John G couldn't see a change for Oxford or Glasgow. In progress (30/6) RALPP https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114442 (18/6) Gridpp Pilot role ticket. Accounts need to be created, but no word for a few weeks. In progress (19/6) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114764 (1/7) Ticket tracking (false) availability issues, created to appease COD - the problem caused by a broken CA rpm release for Arc CEs. Kashif has created a counter-ticket https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114742 Gordon's sagely advice is to submit a recalculation request once the issue is fixed. assigned (1/7) BRISTOL https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114485 (19/6) Bristol's gridpp pilot role ticket. No news, could do with an update really. In progress (22/6) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114426 (18/6) CMS AAA reading test problems. The Bristol admins have transferred data to their new shiny SE and have asked CMS to test again. No word since. Waiting for reply (30/6) EDINBURGH https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=95303 (1/7/13...) Tarball glexec ticket, now 2 years old. After a really promising burst the last 6 weeks haven't seen any progress, due to a lot of other "normal" tarball work taking up the time. Sorry! On hold (18/5) DURHAM https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114536 (22/6) Durham's gridpp pilot role ticket. Not acknowledged yet, is Oliver back yet? Assigned (22/6) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114765 (1/7) See RALPP ticket 114764. Assigned (1/7) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114727 (30/6) Catalin ticketed that a number of SW_DIR variables at Durham are still pointing to the old school .gridpp.ac.uk cvmfs space. Assigned (30/6) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114381 (16/6) John G ticketed Durham over a small percentage of jobs being published as "zero core". Looks like a SLURM timeout problem, although a fix isn't obvious. Put on the back burner whilst Oliver is on holiday. On Hold (19/6) SHEFFIELD https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114649 (26/6) A ticket from a Sno+ user about not being able to access software using the Sheffield CEs. Acknowledged but no news. In progress (26/6) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114460 (18/6) Sheffield's gridpp pilot role ticket. Did you get round to rolling them out? In progress (19/6) MANCHESTER https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114444 (18/6) LHCB ticket concerning the DPM's SRM not returning checksum information. On hold whilst a related ticket is being looked at (https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=111403). On Hold (22/6) LIVERPOOL https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=111403 (10/6) Another Sno+ ticket, about grid production jobs failing at Liverpool. AIUI caused by Sno+ running out of space on the shared pool. At last check Steve posted the usage information for Sno+ but no word since (and Steve's off on his hols). In progress (17/6) LANCASTER https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114845 (6/7) LHCB pilots failing at Lancaster. Looks like a simple node misconfiguration, hopefully fixed, waiting to see if it is. On hold (6/7) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=95299 (1/7/2013) glexec ticket - see Edinburgh description. On hold (15/5) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=100566 (27/1) Bad bandwidth performance at Lancaster. Hoping that IPv6 will shake things up a bit so pushing that. On hold (18/5) UCL https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114746 (30/6) SRM-put failures ROD ticket. No news at all. Assigned (30/6) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114851 (6/7) Low availability ROD ticket, related to above. Assigned (6/7) RHUL https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114441 (18/6) Another GridPP pilot role ticket. Pilots rolled out, but something isn't quite right and they're not working - Govind is looking again. In progress (6/7) QMUL https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114573 (23/6) LHCB ticket about two out of three QM CEs not responding for them. Dan spotted the broken CEs were dual-stacked, the working one wasn't. The ticket seemed to have trailed off into some confusion over who needs to do some testing where. I agree with Dan that that who needs to be someone with LHCB credentials! The waters still seem muddied. In progress (1/7) IC https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114737 (30/6) The IC voms wasn't updating properly, due to what I infer from the ticket as "SSL/mysql madness". Simon and Robert have been heroically battling this one - it's a good read. On hold (3/7) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114379 (16/6) Sam's ticket about SE support in Dirac. Sam will shortly try testing things out on the new Dirac to see how it fares. In progress (6/7) BRUNEL https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114447 (18/6) Brunel's gridpp pilot ticket. Being worked on, with one CE with the pilots enabled. In progress (26/6) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114006 (31/5) A ticket from APEL, about Brunel under-reporting the number of jobs they are doing. Turned out to be a problem with Arc, which Raul upgraded to the fixed 5.0 version. The APEL team deleted the sync records, but no word since. In progress (30/6) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114850 (6/7) Another APEL ticket, likely the fallout of the previous one - it looks like GAP publishing has been left on for the Brunel CREAM CEs. Assigned (6/7) TIER 1 https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=114786 (2/7) Low availability ticket - see RALPP ticket 114442 - probably could do with Ob holding. In progress (2/7) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=113910 (26/5) Sno+ data staging problems. Brian gave some advice on how the large VOs do data staging from tape, and has asked if Sno+ still has problems. Matt M might still be on leave though. Waiting for reply (23/6) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=108944 (1/10/14) CMS AAA problems, which eventually brought to light to a problem with super-hot datasets which were alleviated (I think). Despite an update to castor that improved performance the last batch of tests didn't show improved results. No news since. In progress (17/6) https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=113836 (20/5) Glue mismatch problems at RAL. Working on getting "many-Arcs" to correctly publish. In progress (24/6) And that's all folks! Cheers, Matt
