Discussion

  • AI (Carl): New IGTF CA release; update XRootD to 4.12.6.
  • AI (Carl): Investigate bug in generating the CA certs website (lower priority since we can fix it manually)
  • AI (Junheng): Fix location for registry PR; apply changes from review of 'outdated packages'
  • Marco: Working on adding GitHub Actions and plans to use artifacts instead of caches since the former is longer lived
  • AI (Mat): Ensure GridCF can make a GCT release
  • AI (TimT): Prepare for new CA release.
  • AI (TimT): Automate BOSCO and tarball updates; create tarballs for PPC architecture.Announcements:

Support Update

  • CMS (Marian): European CMS still mostly on XRootD 4 due to AAA dependency; still discussing migration plans.
  • Miron (Carl): Continue investigating issues with Compute Canada sites erroneously showing up in the CC* dashboard
  • UCL (Mat): Help UCL test authenticated stash origin. Discuss with Derek and Brian B about what kind of authentication is desired.

OSG Investigations Team
