Monday

• UofC ATLAS meeting (3rd HEP)
• ATLAS shift
  • Problems with production proxy probably due to CERN VOMS upgrade (then downgraded): order of extended attributes is different, need to use -order option
  • performed some GUMS tests to asses the error: voms-gums-test.txt
    • there seems to be a problem with the callout that always maps to usatlas3. Is it using different information? Is it for legacy/compatibility reasons?
  • troubleshooting Fortran library (libgfortran) problem (error in tmp file creation):

At line 209 of file ../i686-slc3-gcc323-opt/loadamdcagddfromstring.f
Fortran runtime error: No such file or directory

• • • some docs that may be useful

In EGCS 1.1 versus EGCS 1.0.3:
    * Use tempnam, if available, to open scratch files (as in `OPEN(STATUS='SCRATCH')') so that the TMPDIR environment variable, if present, is used.

  • lcg-cp and LBNL srm-cp work
  • Fermi srmcp fails (dq2-get hangs)

Tuesday

• ATLAS shift meeting (phone CERN)
  • Add Jabber/Chat instructions to the twiki page
• TAG developers meeting (phone CERN)
  • Working FDR2 Pathena by tomorrow evening
• MWT2 meeting (RI405) - skipped
• ATLAS shift
  • pilots running as usatlas3: https://rt-racf.bnl.gov/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=8825
  • emails to troubleshoot GLIBC_2.4 requirement: dCache transfer failing at AGLT2 and MWT2 in ATLAS 14.1.0
• dq2-XXX troubleshooting
  • Monica's dataset registration is all messed up: PFNs are incorrect. How this happened? I was able to copy out those files in the past!
• court 12-2.30pm

Wednesday

• ATLAS DB meeting (phone CERN) - skipped
• ATLAS facilities meeting (phone EsNet from 405)
• defining some bugs of problems during the shift:
  • cont and fixed pilots running as usatlas3: https://rt-racf.bnl.gov/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=8825
  • cont dcache in ATLAS 14.1.0 requires GLIBC_2.4: https://savannah.cern.ch/bugs/?38446
    • suggesting to remove dCache client from release
    • or fix it like done at BNL (1.8.0 instead of 1.8.0.0)
• Fixing monica's dataset registration (remove extra 'uct2-dc1.uchicago.edu')
  • select to a file
  • modify the file to prepare update
  • mysqldump for backup
  • execute update

f = open('marco-monica-in.txt')
fout = open('marco-monica-out.txt', 'w')
flin = f.readline()
outmask = 'update t_pfn set pfname="%s" where guid="%s" and pfname="%s";'
while flin:
 #print 'LINE:', flin
 ltok = flin.split()
 if len(ltok)!=2:
  print "Wrong format:", ltok
  continue
 #print ltok
 oldnametok = ltok[0].split('uct2-dc1.uchicago.eduuser')
 #print 'OLDNT:', oldnametok
 newpfname = "%suser%s" % (oldnametok[0], oldnametok[1])
 #print 'NEWPFN:', newpfname
 outl = outmask % (newpfname, ltok[1], ltok[0])
 #print outl
 fout.write("%s\n" % outl)
 #break
 flin = f.readline()
fout.close()
f.close()
