Sciense Oprations

Greetings,

We are currently encountering difficulties with the TWiki. This problem prevents updates to some pages but not others. The problem appears to be intermittent and is under investigation. The GOC regrets any inconvenience and will inform you as soon as a resolution is available.

• Move repositories and logs from oasis and oasis-replica to a shared disk attached to their hypervisor.
• Removal of content for the fermilab VO.
• oasis-login to latest version

• Firmware update to the nas01 device (a QNAP TS-EC879U-RP), requiring two reboots.

• Operating system updates; reboots will be required. The usual HA mechanisms will be used, but some services will experience brief outages. Relocation of service virtual machines to their new hosts will complete.

We are pleased to announce OSG Software versions 3.2.26 and 3.3.0.

OSG 3.2.26 contains:
* XRootD 4.2.2 (see release notes for details)
* 2 patches to HTCondor to better support HTCondor CE
* improved logging of failures in lcmaps-plugins-verify-proxy
* better credential handling and fix for crashes in lcamps-plugins-scas-client
* CA Certificates are no longer repackaged for compatibility with old software
* VO Package v61

OSG 3.3.0 starts a new release series. This series is currently largely equivalent to the 3.2.26 series with the following changes:
* Unused and unmaintained packages were dropped from the 3.3 series.
* The 3.3 series contains HTCondor 8.3.6, rather than HTCondor 8.2.8.
* The OSG 3.3 series supports Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 systems.
* Enterprise Linux 7 support is not yet complete.
* We have lightly tested the worker node components on EL 7.
