      Speaker: Katy Ellis (Science and Technology Facilities Council STFC (GB))

      Apologies, Katy is at the FTS/XRootD joint workshop and will not join the meeting.

      Still seeing intermittent failures on the (token version of the) CVMFS test, see https://cmssst.web.cern.ch/siteStatus/detail.html?site=T1_UK_RAL

      The error is here: https://monit-grafana.cern.ch/d/siYq3DxZz/wlcg-sitemon-test-details?orgId=20&var-metric=org.cms.WN-02cvmfs-%2Fcms-ce-token&var-dst_hostname=arc-ce01.gridpp.rl.ac.uk&var-timestamp=1789520050569&from=now-1y&to=now&timezone=utc&var-Filters=data.summary%7C%3D%7Ccmssgm-3252819.0-lcg2392.gridpp.rl.ac.uk:%20CRITICAL:%20critical%20CVMFS%20filesystem%20inaccessible

      Also, the certificate version of the CVMFS test appears to not be running. Interestingly this applies also to RALPP, but no other sites (ARC-CE users or otherwise) that I can see from a quick look. 

      Job performance looks good.

      • Some jobs over the last week that included some testing of caching certain highly used files:

      With the IO being dramitically reduced (take with a pinch of salt as was also during the time that the cert change was happening with OpenSearch)
