1. Middleware releases and staged rollout
1.1 EMI-1 release status
1.2 Staged Rollout
- Currently no products in staged rollout.
- LFC_oracle 1.8.2 in the final stage of Verification by one Tier1.
- IGE SAGA adaptors: http://www.saga-project.org/ , is currently under verification, but we need to know if there are sites interested in it to do staged rollout. Already had some expression of interest from 1 site.
Upcoming EMI update 15 (see Cristina's presentation)
EMI2 is scheduled for the 7th of May.
2. Operational Issues
2.1 BDII instability
- On April 12th several Site-BDIIs in Ibergrid and NGI_IT were malfunctioning:
- Symptomps:
- Site-BDIIs failing SAM probes, failing attempts to restart them
- High CPU usage of LDAP services, even after the restart
- gLite3.2 and EMI services affected
- Similar problems may have affected the Top-BDIIs: the logs report that during the same period some of the Top-BDIIs in the HA cluster of Ibergrid were removed because not responsive.
- During the same hours a GEANT network problem was reported: in particular caused by a router in Geneva (12th April 2012 around 16 CET)
Possible connection between the problems (G.Borges):
- GEANT problem reported as intermittent
- Connections with the client -broken because of the network- remained pending (default timeout 60 seconds)
- Clients reconnected to the BDIIs multiplying the number of connections to the server, causing the effect of a sort of DoS attack
For all NGIs:
- Assess the status of Site-BDIIs and Top-BDIIs and report similar problems
- If possible, upgrade BDII instances to BDII Site 1.1.0
- This version adds dependencies to OpenLdap 2.4 (increased stability), and reduces memory and disk usage
- Note: This may not solve this specific issue, but it will increase the general BDII performance
2.2 VOMS Admin fails notifying about exipiring membership
A bug was recently found affecting the VOMS Admin process of sending warning messages when user membership is about to expire. The VOMS Admin versions affected by the bug are:
- gLite 3.2: versions 2.5.3-1 and 2.5.5-1
- EMI 1: VOMS Admin 2.6.1
