Pile of Dross

(Makes it easier to read all of long log entries if they have a title, so going to try and remember and put relevant dates in work entries)

Made various tweaks to dCache -restarted all gridftp door over course of the morning – this fixed an balance issue we were seeing with SC transfers avoiding gftp0444 -probably due to lingering connections to that system
Restarted some more pools
Cleared the CMS files from nfs39 left over when we gave it to LHCb, as dCache decides to use pools based on the amount of free space, not the the amount of “freeable” space so nfs39′s pools weren’t getting as much use as they might have.
Noticed queue of transfers on nfs39 – so raised maximum movers – immediate data movement out of server to lhcb jobs on batch farm, still not understood why things had got queued though – possibly too many jobs opening multiple files?

Attended:
Monday morning ops meeting
Tech discussion (gave talk)
SC3 phone conference (mailed RAL’s report afterwards to JS too)
