URT:Agenda-2022-01-17

News

• CentOS Stream 8 now the recommended OS for new installations
• C8->CS8 migrations recommended
• CS9 will be supported by CERN and FNAL
• middleware: recommended path is C7->CS9 (we will probabily skip CS8)

CMD

Add:

• apel-ssm-2.4.1-1.el7.noarch
• python-argo-ams-library-0.5.1-1.el7.noarch
• many Cloud sites are now using OpenStack Stein or newer. These version are provided with python-daemon = 2.2.3-1.el7. It conflicts with the requirement of apel-ssm ( python-daemon < 2.2.0)
• there is new apel-ssm 3.0.0 version under untested repo and this new version solves the dependency issue of requirement python-daemon <= 2.2.0.
• there is also the new python-argo-ams 0.54 library

Preview

• released on 2021-06-10
  • Preview 2.34.0 (CentOS 7): ARC 6.12.0, CVMFS 2.8.1, xrootd 5.2.0
• released on 2021-08-11
  • Preview 2.35.0 (CentOS 7): APEL SSM 3.2.1, DPM/DMLite 1.15.0 and 1.15.1, frontier-squid 4.15.2, xrootd 5.3.0
• We stopped the release of Preview since it doesn't seem to be used very much, and it is also easier to catch the last version of the products from EPEL or the product teams repos, prior the release in UMD.
