User Liaison Meeting Feb23 - lsst-uk/somerville-operations GitHub Wiki

  1. SuperMicro HV Status

    • SuperMicro HVs from old system were integrated into the Somerville cloud, but show odd problems related to networking (flapping services, random periods of disconnect). Network investigation indicates routers and VLANs are fine, issue might be related to ethernet adapter settings/flags. StackHPC and Greg are investigating.

  2. Heat/Kubernetes Issues

    • Heat deployments are failing with what appear to be issues with attaching volumes or flavors that include ephemeral disk. Greg and Gareth are investigating.

  3. Backup Ceph storage

    • Old Ceph nodes have been racked and cabled. Need to decide on provisioning choice (manual vs bifrost), then setup Ceph cluster.

  4. SSDs for Gaia

    • SSD M2 adapters on order awaiting delivery
