VO Liaison CMS 1mSpeaker: Katy Ellis (Science and Technology Facilities Council STFC (GB))
Networking investigations into the slow IPv4 transfers have started. They are doing some ping tests. Not much I can do for poor efficiencies while I wait for this. File read times have been very high ~5 hours per job on average, with read size not significantly higher.
AAA service was failing SAM tests quite a bit this week. I tried restarting the services yesterday (Tues 25th around lunchtime). This didn't help at all, and there was then a period of failures. We just received a ticket as site readiness was failing yesterday. SAM tests for AAA look a little better today. Going to observe for a while. AAA doesn't seem too busy at the moment - earlier in the week it was doing up to 1 GB/s.

VO Liaison LHCb 1mSpeaker: Raja Nandakumar (Science and Technology Facilities Council STFC (GB))
LHCb:
WN streaming issue:
- Waiting for xrootd development
- Some configuration fine-tuning for the WN proxies and gateways to be handed over soon to roll out to the farm
- Hopefully some results on Friday or next week
- Next on list : to look at the different batches of WNs
DUNE:
No major news. Most recent jobs failed as they were supposed to be running GPU code - investigating why the jobs even came to RAL (and other sites) instead of going to GPU farms alone.
