Report from WLCG MW Officer

Ongoing discussions with the experiments about the avaialbility of the client bundles for UI and WN

First CentOS7 UI Available in cvmfs ( /cvmfs/grid.cern.ch/centos7-ui-test), discussion ongoing to create the rpm and release it in UMD, WN still not available.

Issues:

Updates from Technical Providers

dCache

DPM/LFC

NTR

Data management clients

New Releases in EPEL:

FTS

NTR

ARC

QCG

Globus

The Globus update that, among other things, changes the default host verification mode to strict rfc 2818 is now in EPEL stable.

The setting can be changed in /etc/grid-security/gsi.conf, but the new default is considered more secure so changing it back to hybrid mode is not recommended.

To change the setting temporary without affecting every process on the machine the environment variable can be used:

export GLOBUS_GSSAPI_NAME_COMPATIBILITY=HYBRID

The update also contains an updated globus-gridftp-server package (10.4) and the corresponding rebuild of dpm-dsi (1.9.7-6). This update was tested by the DPM developers.

The globus-xio-udt-driver update is in EPEL stable.
