      * RT: #296706: Optimise XRootD checksums for TPC transfers from ECHO
      * RT: #313743: Update of SRR to v6 required specs
      * AD to update Corepower 

      * lcg2344: job failures due to missing xrootd proxies? Fixed now.

      * New data reprocessing Campaign:
      Very similar in size to that run in early 2020; will also follow 'Data Carousel' model
      Full run-2;  starting with 2018 (likely in two phases) and working backwards
      Should start ~ tomorrow.

       

      * TPC Http:
      Patched version;  can do a curl get using gridmap-file
      Can write to test GW via FTS, but in --strict-copy mode (i.e no checksum, validation checking).
      Patches / work / decisions need to be moved back up into respective packages.

      VO Liaison CMS 1m
      Speaker: Katy Ellis (Science and Technology Facilities Council STFC (GB))

      Tests were good, but there was a big dip in efficiency across the weekend. Appears to coincide with high data input and very high read time. 

      I am waiting on the CMS WNs (mini batch farm) to come back to life. It seems the proxy dockers have disappeared. Jose may need some help bringing these back?

      I have been investigating hs06 reporting. I've not got a full set of evidence yet, but it's looking suspicious.

      George P has been upgrading the AAA RAL redirector. We have some issues. IPv6 public address was missing but has now been added. Still unable to xrdcp a file from it, so we continue.
