Thomas, Jyothish (STFC,RAL,SC)

accidentally broke preprod workernodes - docker had cached old layers for the new image

cms-aaa naming convention

cms-aaa is the only remaining personality to use proxy/ceph as the xrootd service names

Separate naming convention would be more appropriate, to have main/supporting

(not so urgent).

CC created, but due to be reviewed December

XRootD Managers De-VMWareification

Thomas, Jyothish (STFC,RAL,SC)

Option 2 preferred for efficiency, but Option 1 decided on

Option 1 would be simpler to implement for a temporary fix, as the move would be reversed

Compilation and rollout status with XrdCeph and rocky 8: 5.7.x

Thomas, Jyothish (STFC,RAL,SC)

Upstream merging in process. Branch now exists.

Documention (particularly for the Buffered IO is needed).

UKSRC Storage Architecture

For v0.1 Requirements:

POSIX-like access be provided ‘next to’ the compute.
Via ‘some method', files / directories are mounted (RO) for applications (eg. Jupyterhub) to read from.

POSIX area ‘should be’ an RSE, to enable the transfers, and lifecylce management.
Bulk storage “May” exist, required a TPC into the ‘cache’ area.

Dissadvantages:
- Unnecessary data movement perhaps (and via TPC)
- Mounts and permissions

Other ideas:

Manilla style shares / volumes for each DID / container requested ?
- Rucio ‘download’ rather than TPC
- Lifecycle management on the Manilla share layer?
