OSG Software Team

  • Tim makeup doc focus
  • Release
    • AI (Mat): XRootD 5.3.0 RC4
    • AI (Carl): Fix default HTCondor-CE ProbeConfig default dirs (SOFTWARE-4621) (https://opensciencegrid.atlassian.net/browse/SOFTWARE-4621)
    • AI (Carl): Move 99gratia-ce.conf to /usr/share location
    • AI (Carl): Missing zero walltime records
    • AI (BrianL): Remove deps needed for Globus from HTCondor in 3.6

Discussion

  • Madison would like GlideinWMS container images with immutable tags for their production frontends. Currently the images are contributed by Diego, but BrianL will make a ticket for tracking the issue.

  • GlideinWMS 3.7 series release not expected until a few weeks from now.

  • Upstream HTCondor 9.0.2 and BLAHP 2.1.0 release planned for tomorrow (7/7); TimT will provide BrianL with a BLAHP tarball for testing.

Support Update

  • SUT (BrianL): remote host missing libltdl
  • IGWN frontend (Marian): proxy was not getting renewed, but a pod redeploy fixed the issue. Investigate the original cause; BrianL thinks it might have been a Fetch-CRL error.
  • GLOW (Derek): Removed abnormal CMS records (900,000+ hours for 1 job), and re-uploaded WLCG records for June.

OSG DevOps

  • StashCP go client is working and tested, and being tested by Christina now. Need to talk to Mats on packaging and releasing. (will follow up)
  • Design document is done and is being distributed for xrootd monitoring collector NG (next gen). Shoveler development has begun!
  • XRootD TCP plugin is ready for packaging. Derek will follow up with software team on who to hand that off to.
  • Discussions of xrootd-multiuser support for checksumming on-the-fly. Derek needs to discuss with XRootD team, but it will be on Derek's plate.
  • More partners are asking about scitokens-cpp, and compatibility. Expect some updates.

  • (Stalled, but need to get back to it) XRootD accounting information (from Frank):

    • May need help with automating the process of generating these reports. A month only takes a few minutes. Longer periods take much longer.
    • Table of working set, read, and re-read for monthly, quarterly, and year.
