Discussion

  • "opensciencegrid" project on Harbor has almost filled its quota; tag immutability rules and a critical bug in Harbor garbage collection make it difficult to clean up
    • A student may be starting later this month, to be supervised by Matt; writing scripts to assist Harbor image cleanup by using its API would be a good project for her

Support Update

  • LBL / ORNL (BrianL): assissting them set up their HTCondor-CE for ALICE
  • JLAB (Matt): credmon started working when run as root without their wrapper script
  • LIGO (Matt): stash-cache service now fails to start after SystemD overrides; the actual error is coming from the authfile-update script
  • OU (Mat): new xrootd-standalone setup failed to start xrootd due to 'CA errors'; the actual issue was that XRootD was configured to require CRLs and they were missing
