Minutes

Attendees: Wayne B., Leve H., Jérôme L., Gene V.B.

ShiftLog [Leve]:

New server:
- Ready:
  - App copied to new server (Wayne)
    - Successfully passed stability tests (pounding on it)
  - All WARs deployed
  - Scripts ready to flush cache and re-copy WARs
- To do:
  - Will re-check links to and from RunLog
  - Watcher script not on yet
  - Verify Offline QA Shift Report connections

Online infrastructure [Wayne]:

New web server:
- Links on homepage checked
  - Some issues with DB access and privilege from current node name (dean2)
- New jpgraph version installed in same location as the old one
- Disk exports are not in place, so content isn't being updated currently
- Will do another sync over the weekend or early next week, in addition to the final one when we swap servers
- Ganglia to be installed
- User accounts to be added
New web server backup:
- Configuration kept the same as main new web server
- ...but content isn't sync-ed
Password rotation completed
mysql-devel installed on online linux nodes (RT 2068)
Two online disk failures (on onl09 (non-critical) RT 2065 and on onlldap (critical) RT 2067)
- RAID still providing for the file systems in the interim
ITD network backups failing (RT 2069), but resolution from ITD may have just come through
Machine replacements:
- emcsc ready (needs either deployed by tomorrow or ITD block needs postponed)
- emcspin ready (Monday)
- starutilities awaiting C-AD software

FastOffline [Jerome]:

Many files coming into the system, but all are tests, pulsers, etc., so not being processed
Some missing detector setup, beam energy, etc. information: could mean misconfiguration, or potentially not properly propagated data

QA [Gene]:

OnlinePlots switched back to newer EVP server
- Switching steps still undocumented
Pre-combining of FastOffline files still needs tested and configured to be the default

Run 11 preparation meeting #6

1-189, EVO, at 19:00 (GMT), duration : 01:00

Minutes

Attendees: Kefeng, Wayne B., Leve H., Gene V.B., Dmitry A.

ShiftLog [Leve]:

Manual changes have been reviewed (by Jerome) and committed
Re-deployed

Databases [Dmitry]:

cdev enabled (by C-AD), so parameter propagation has begun
- Some data is still empty (e.g. beam species) and may not be filled for several weeks (when beams actually start)
  - Might be possible to enter some default values for now
- Numbers are meaningless, so not useful for FastOffline testing
Testing new hardware nodes now (2 are available)
- Configuration of new nodes in discussion

Online Infrastructure [Wayne]:

STAR login environment needs to be able to handle SL5.5 (which was installed on some nodes)
- Will follow up with Jerome
Online linux pool is losing roughly 1 node a day (rebooting)
- Hit a few with network scans, but response was OK, so no clues
Spin request (for Pibero):
- User has access to the nodes and is waiting for directory structures and mount points
  - Expect to complete within a few days
Condor installation on for rterm-like access to online pool from gateway
- Installed on the gateway
- Components for the pool nodes is to be done
Slowness on evp
- Only occurred yesterday (Dec. 16)
- Nothing obvious, but suspicious of AFS, and coincided with mock data transfer challenge from counting house to HPSS
- Paths forward discussed:
  - Remove outside AFS dependence using an online repository
  - Remove AFS dependence using local codes on evp
  - Write a new tool better identify AFS issues (i.e. more proactive than 'fs checkservers')
- Problem doesn't seem to persist, not a priority for now (no action)
Yury G. requested networking support for the east FPD/FMS rack
- Just extends the starp network geographically
- Needs to be a fiber connection for proper grounding
Webserver replacement
- Two redhat 5 machines given the ITD thumbs up
- Shared filespaces in progress
- No services started yet
- Request for an account to test tomcat (Leve)

QA [Gene]:

Demo of the Offline QA with reference histogram comparison
- Missing some features for flexibly defining reference histogram sets (will work on over the holidays)
- Minor suggestion made for improving the "waiting..." display
