Service Degradation - Merit is reporting a Fiber Issue between Kalamazoo and Jackson.
This is affecting the direct connection between UM and ESnet

Note on host tuning script being developed for WLCG perfSONAR:  https://osg-htc.org/networking/perfsonar/tools_scripts/fasterdata-tuning/ This script is also intended to audit or apply Fasterdata settings. Have been used on UM's perfSONAR (psum01/psum02/psum02-100g.aglt2.org) and on one of our dCache hosts umfs20.aglt2.org. Script will be upgraded to "save" and "restore" configs for upcoming mini-capability challenge in January 2026. Feedback on the script and docs welcome.
