Operations

Downtimes due to the vulnerability CVE-2016-5195: request an A/R recomputation

All the resource centres that were affected by the vulnerability CVE-2016-5195 and that declared a downtime between 2016-10-20 16:00 UTC and 2016-10-31 18:00 UTC are invited to request a recomputation of A/R figures for the days in which the downtime was ongoing.

In according to the procedure https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/PROC10_Recomputation_of_SAM_results_or_availability_reliability_statistics you need to fill this form: http://argo.egi.eu/lavoisier/recomputation

and indicate:

  • Your name and email
  • the site(s) affectected by the problem
  • a description of the problem
  • the profile affected
  • the starting and ending time of the problem (including day and hour in UTC)

In case of problems with the web form, please submit a GGUS ticket to ARGO/SAM support unit providing the same information.

Software upgrades for OpenStack cloud RCs TBD

  • keystone-VOMS and cloud-info-provider updates available, need to be installed on all OpenStack sites
  • as keystone-VOMS last version is only compatible with Liberty and Mitaka, in case OpenStack is Kilo (or older) an upgrade plan of OpenStack has been asked
  • according to EGI policies https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/PROC16_Decommissioning_of_unsupported_software OpenStack Kilo or older should NOT be running on the infrastructure! we are asking for discussing this point at the next OMB (October 27)
  • as many sites are finding difficulties in planning upgrades against the very tight release cycle of OpenStack, please come with suggestion and reply with details in the tickets in order to shape the best (shared) proposal

Monthly Availability/Reliability

  • October A/R figures not definitive yet

ARGO proposal to use GOCDB as the only source of topology information

VAPOR

  • new version released in September, it replaces GSTAT
  • important for presenting the amount of computing and storage resources of the infrastructure
  • each NGI should review the information provided by their sites and let us know any inconsistency: http://operations-portal.egi.eu/vapor/resources/GL2ResSummary
    • we need your feedback to improve the service
    • some known issues will be fixed in the next release
