SC23 status:
- Latest connection schema proposed by Tom attached to the agenda
- DTNs: Starlight (ready/have access), KIT (ready), CERN (ready but needs re-install), UVic (in prep ?),
- Collectors: ESnet (ready) - Andy working on it this week, collector is up and already receiving some sample fireflies with netlink data
- Dashboards: CERN Grafana/Prometheus ready (Marian);
CERN P4 probably not going to happen as we're facing issues with port mirroring (ticket was filed with Juniper)
R&E dashboard - will be added to CERN Grafana using ES at ESnet
InMon dashboard TBD
- High-touch: visualisation (in prep) - python workbook was shared by Yatish
- UCSD/Caltech interested to enable packet marking on their Kubernetes XRootd cluster (working with them to test this in the development cluster first)
RNTWG packet marking - list of activities:
- Collectors developments (needed):
. - flowd extension to send netlink data (in testing for update fireflies; for "end" fireflies needs some R&D in time series data compression)
- access to GEANT data source to check if we could show utilisation + fireflies side by side
- what would be interesting to see in the R&E dashboard ? (see https://github.com/scitags/flowd#example-4 for list of avail. metrics)
. - dashboard to show netlink data coming from flowd
- forwarding fireflies to another collector
- Storage and transfers developments
- dCache (needs testing)
- Rucio - scitags support ready in 32.4.0 (interface to FTS still to be done - but should be easy)
- FTS/gfal2 - scitags support ready in FTS 3.12.11 and GFAL2 2.22.0
- flowd in EPEL (no progress)
- R&D
- Use HBH option (instead of flow label)
- Extension header reachability/drop rate study needed
- Find ways how to implement HBH in Linux and eBPF
- Others:
- Scitags poster for SC23 (
. - DOMA DC24 workshop (https://indico.cern.ch/event/1307338/)
RNTWG packet pacing - meeting yesterday (https://indico.cern.ch/event/1337182/) - next in 2 weeks
- Discussed setting up testbed, test coordination and methodology
