• Merry Christmas! (My and Mat's last liaison meeting this year)
  • gsissh access to the LSST VOBox has now been confirmed by Peter LoveĀ 
  • Message topic created for RAL, this is now being listened to for the data being sent to RAL for ingestion
  • Migration of the LSST Butler Database from the VOBox to a Database Service Database - data seems to be intact, however, there appears to be some connection issues between the BatchFarm (BF) and the Database
    psycopg2.OperationalError: connection to server at "dbspgha03.fds.rl.ac.uk" (130.246.184.29), port 5432 failed: could not receive data from server: Connection timed out

    with timeout errors (with quite a long timeout and multiple retried) are holding jobs open for long periods, causing pile-up of the LSST test jobs.

  • Connection between the BF and the DB has been confirmed from nodes to DB through various methods (ping, NC) - further investigation ongoing.
  • In Jan will be starting to create an LSST testing suite for our monitoring of the job submission pipelines
