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:

* https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=120586
** glite-ce-job-submit  issue with dual stack CEs, CESNET is working on it but it's becoming quite high priority for at least LHCb experiment

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 status of the globus-xio-udt-driver update is that the version in EPEL testing was updated from 1.21 to 1.23. The difference between the versions is that in the new version the patch that was applied in packaging to allow building using older versions of some of the dependencies was accepted upstream. So the patch that was applied before is now dropped.
