OSG Software Team

• AI (Derek): XCache 1.5.0 breaks osg-test tests and docker-xcache CI (preventing image tag updates!), probably due to hardcoded Authfiles in the tests of both:
  • https://github.com/opensciencegrid/docker-xcache/blob/master/tests/test_stashcache_origin.sh#L10
  • https://github.com/opensciencegrid/docker-xcache/blob/master/tests/test_stashcache.sh#L9
  • https://github.com/opensciencegrid/osg-test/blob/master/osgtest/tests/test_155_stashcache.py#L81-L100
• Tech team priorities this week: https://opensciencegrid.atlassian.net/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=19
• Doc Focus scheduled for August 13 1:30pm CDT

Discussion

• Derek: scitokens-cpp is already in EPEL 7 and 8. Do we need it in OSG 3.5?

OSG Investigations Team

• Validation document is in "Draft"
• CVMFS Singularity Sync is going to start using singularity to create the containers. Working on testing, see github discussion:
  • https://github.com/opensciencegrid/cvmfs-singularity-sync/issues/245
  • More feedback from interested parties and they seem to be happy. Will provide feedback when Derek is back from vacation.
• Derek needs help with XCache test failures.
• StashCP Go implementation, may want some help with "evaluating" it as a replacement for stashcp.
