• Worker nodes were easy
  • Still had glexec installed, had to remove first
  • Otherwise fine
• SE already switched from bestman2
  • Also has frontier squid and gridftp
• Already migrated to LCGMAPS
• CE migration more challenging 
  • followed github steps
  • also removed bestman client
  • Started yum install; yum install hung 
  • restarted instructions on github from the very beginning; worked.
• Note: have to follow instructions on github upgrade site to remove bestman2, yum removal of bestman* doesn't work  http://opensciencegrid.org/docs/release/release_series/#updating-from-osg-31-32-33-to-33-or-34
