  • InCommon subject DN format change (state abbreviation -> full state name) will result in a number of vo-client updates in the next few months so we can transition VOs
  • Critical bug/security fix only support for OSG 3.4 starts at the beginning of next month. Double-check ticket labels for release series to build for.
  • OSG 3.5.11
    • AI (Mat): Update Globus packages (SOFTWARE-3991)
    • AI (Edgar): Release oidc-agent and CCTools (SOFTWARE-3987, SOFTWARE-3988)
    • AI (Diego): Build XRootD plugins for XRootD 5; RC2 expected in the next ~2 weeks (SOFTWARE-3923)
  • Hosted CE
    • AI (Brian): Simplify remote user configuration (SOFTWARE-3960)
    • AI (Brian): Documentation for OSG Ops
  • GridFTP/GSI transition
    • AI (Edgar): Update TPC tests to use config.d configuration; add HTTP/S tests for XRootD standalone
    • AI (Carl): Move OASIS manager login credential information to CILogon (SOFTWARE-3947)
    • AI (Mat): Fix-up email templates and confusing web page for the COManage self-registration process
    • AI (Mat): Review contents of audit log for places where we may want to audit tokens
    • AI (Derek): Demonstrate access to LIGO frame data with SciTokens (waiting on XCache SciTokens integration)

Discussion

  • Next GlideinWMS version expected at the end of this week
  • There were questions about how to separate the XRootD TPC transfers for production from XRootD client transfers. We think that we can get the production transfer data from FTS and subtract that from the data uploaded to get the XRootD client numbers.

Support Update

  • Florida (BrianL, Derek): Investigating delays in SAM test job startup
  • Nebraska (Diego): Working with admins to transition Nebraska to using XRootD TPC with UCSD
