1. Middleware releases and staged rollout
1.1. Update on the status of EMI updates
1.2. Staged Rollout
2. Operational Issues
2.1 Monitoring of unsupported middleware
2.2 Dependency problem with gridsite-apache (globus?)
The following UMD-2 packages:
- emi-UI
- emi-WN
Have a dependency with the globus-gass-copy-progs package which is not in the UMD repositories but it comes from EPEL. The globus-gass-copy-progs package has dependencies with other globus libraries which are part of IGE components currently released in UMD.
A recent EPEL updgrade released a new globus-gass-copy-progs package, with updated dependencies to newer libraries (released in EPEL as well), the Globus libraries in UMD are unfortunately too old. UMD repositories protect from EPEL and yum cannot download the newer libraries, and it fails.
Solutions:
2.3 monitoring issues with WN SL6
2.4 new service types in gocdb in production
The following service type will be put in production in GOCDB, today:
- CUSTOM.pl.plgrid.Bazaar - SLA negotiation system between users and resource providers from NGI_PL grid
- CUSTOM.pl.plgrid.BazaarSAT - Bazaar Site Admin Toolkit from NGI_PL grid
- CUSTOM.pl.plgrid.BAT.agent - Service for collecting accounting data from NGI_PL grid
- CUSTOM.pl.plgrid.QStorMan.UserInterface - A service to provide a user of the grid system with a certain level of quality, from NGI_PL grid
- CUSTOM.pl.plgrid.KeyFS - Key File System service, installed on UI machines to provide a user with the grid credentials, from NGI_PL grid
- pl.cyfronet.InSilicoLab - InSilicoLab portal instance.
These service types were removed from GOCDB because ATP was not able to handle them (Nagios configuration returned errors). SAM 17.1 update patches the problem, and now ATP properly handles the new service types. Please upgrade the SAM instance if your NGI is still deploying an older version.
