Procurement
We received the 12 storage nodes we ordered.
We have been developing a plan to deploy these, including plans for doing tests for EL9.
Likely will recruit the help of a student to physically move servers, while removing old servers.
EL9 Migration
Resolved DNS issue with EL9 condor-ce.
Test jobs are running and completing successfully.
Currently creating a host group for K8 machines for Armen and picked two R410s to build as K8 machines. Will provide access to these machines to Armen for review.
There is an issue with what path jobs are using as the scratch directory on worker nodes. We are looking into how to resolve this in HTCondor-CE 24. Other sites seem to have this issue as well.
Plan on possibly adjusting the partition scheme for EL9 compute nodes if CVMFS cache location is changed.
Managing Certificates
Updated certificates for two of our data transfer nodes. Verified the certs were correct and that restarting the service worked fine. However, we received transfer errors. Rebooting both nodes and starting services up seemed to have resolved issues.
Inventory Script
We tested the inventory script from a student and discovered an issue. Student is working on resolving this before this coming Friday.
GGUS Enable site network monitoring (GGUS 162991)
Contact campus networking.
They shared Grafana plots that have the information we need.
They do not allow read-only SNMP queries for this data.
I set up a web server to host the necessary information.
Lost access to the Grafana plots and contacted campus networking.
They opened a case and got this fixed, but now we need a way to query this data. I requested permissions with Grafana HTTP API or the ability to query the data source. They are working on this.
