AFS service/operation meeting

AFS operation meeting 2015-03-09

present: Dan, Massimo, Kuba, Jan

• multiple mails from abrt: related to several YUM repository snapshots missing (following an intervention on linuxsoft two weeks ago) & puppet falling over due to this (tickets for both are opened). Will self-correct once the osrepo date moves past the missing period. Mails stopped via puppet template update on Sunday..
• ABS: the AFS "special" CASTOR nameserver got auto-updated to new CASTOR-2.1.15-0. This runs daemons as a unprivileged user, so cannot acces the host keytab any longer, so no more Kerberos. ABS changed again to use the normal DNS alias "castorns", will get failures at low rate due to high load..
• TSM: auto-cleanup started this morning at 07:00, then hit the urgent TSM intervention at 10:00.. Will restart tomorrow manually, will be left with several TB of residual volumes. -> C5
• TSM config updated on afscron1. Will pull out TSM from all other AFS servers.
• afs_admin: updated to support nested PTS groups (bug found by A.Pfeiffer)
• RAID controller firmware update: ongoing. Affect the RAID controller for the system disks for afsdbX
