* ATLAS in drain since 0500 (no new jobs since around 0330):
AREX issue? Resolved 1100?
- Follow up on why it affects all CE's* RAL (unified queue) subsequently (and currently) set into TEST by HC:
"""Diag from worker : Condor HoldReason: None ; Condor RemoveReason: removed by SYSTEM_PERIODIC_REMOVE due to job remote status outdated time exceeded (3600*4)."""

CMS went into drain a week ago, this was fixed on Thursday by reverting a change that was originally made in Oct, but it's still a mystery what happened exactly.

I am seeing some odd dips in running cores in the last 2 days plus today. We appear to drop 10-20% of cores in the monit-grafana, however this is not observed in Vande.
Otherwise, we are running at 400% of pledge due to ATLAS problems with ARC-CE 01 overnight.
I am seeing SAM test failures appearing on all ARC-CEs, of type xrootd. Possibly related to getting files from Echo? I need to investigate.
The debug/loadtest tests for the tape have stopped again. I can see in the Site Readiness than the FTS status has been corrected. We are still receiving no new transfers to tape as we are at pledge. I asked if any deletions could be done (in anticipation of the tape migration to Spectra in about one month) but no reply yet. I also provided the file dump to those doing the consistency checking, but no response either.
No update on the network changes planned by DI.
