Plot below shows the breakdown of token-vs-certificate transfers through current (Monit link; filtered on destination=USA, group by auth_method). During DC24, token usage peaked at >50% token-based transfers by volume.
Many thanks to all the sites for their hard work!
Currently, post-DC24 retrospectives are ongoing. Request: Can sites please send us any issues they observed with tokens during the DC24 period? We would like to sort through the issues and make sure we upstream / work on your issues.
Pacing items for this year to watch out for:
CERN IAM services to be migrated to a new infrastructure.
Mature / release the FTS version that supports tokens.
Working with WLCG to update a community timeline.
Release
XRootD 5.6.8 expected within the week
Kubernetes Accounting
Effort is beginning.
Met with others working on the same things (AUDITOR, KAPEL). There are certainly differences:
Existing KAPEL only uses summarized data, not per job data that GRACC expects.
But, we can certainly build off their existing code.
