CTA dev topics Room: 513/R-068 ### Tape drive states * [Vova]: Project status overview. ### Problem with m_maxBatchBytes logic in RecallTaskInjector * [Vova]: Issue [#150](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues/150) ### PostgreSQL scheduler DB * [David]: Project status overview. ### cta-admin schedulinginfo subcommand * [Michael] Current implementation removed. See [#126](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues/126). * Print the next tape(s) that will be mounted per logical tape library. * ATM this is not useful because the VID is not included. With the PostgreSQL scheduler DB, we should be able to easily add this! ### REPACKING tape state and queue cleanup * [Joao]: Project status overview. * New states (REPACKING, REPACKING_DISABLED, EXPORTED, etc...) added in release **v4.7.10-1**: [Diagram link](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues/83#note_5967026) ### EOS report logs * [Joao]: Project status overview. Changes merged to EOS [#8](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues/8). ### cta-admin build for CentOS Stream-8, and other CI changes * [Jorge]: Project status overview [#72](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues/72) ### archiveretrieve-eos5 failure * [David] Current status of [#129](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues/129) debugging. This seems to have been impacting our CIs for a while. ### Proposal to change EOS disk fid to fxid * [Michael] Present and discuss solution to [#134](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues/134). ### Encryption key script optimization (cta-get-encryption-key) * Issue description [#Ops-839](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/operations/-/issues/839). Main tasks: - [Joao]: Add the column Key ID to the table TAPE_POOL [#137](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues/137) - [Richard]: Modify cta-get-encryption-key script to accept the Key ID, instead of using cta-admin [#138](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues/138) - Modify Tape Server code to pass the Key ID to the script [#139](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues/139) ### "needs discussion" topics * [Issues link](https://gitlab.cern.ch/cta/CTA/-/issues?sort=updated_desc&state=opened&label_name[]=Needs+Discussion)
