   * Upgraded my 2 HP CentOS7 NFSv4 NAS to [[http://zfsonlinux.org/][ZoL v0.6.5.7]] 
      * 1st is the primary NAS featuring 24 SAS disks 15k 600GB
      * 2ns is the secondary NAS featuring 12 SATA disks 7.2k 3000GB ( cold backup )
      * both owns a dual 10Gb/s card put in LACP bonding mode
   * dCache on ZoL
      * again on the secondary NAS I made ZFS fs for dCache :
      * <pre>[root@t3nfs02 ~]# zfs list -d1

   * Procurement: 
      * 80 new server (76*20 + 4*16 =&gt; 1584 new cores; disontinued 144 cores (oldest nodes) 
         * installed and provisioned
   * Migration from OGSGE =&gt; Slurm planned for Q4
   * Probs with NAMD jobs (using ibverbs directly) =&gt; low level IB errors from mlx4 regarding qp 
      * no errors with MPI jobs using ompi or the like
      * no errors with storage (GPFS over RDMA)
   * ATLAS specific: large number of random a-rex crashes within the last 2 weeks 
      * reason unknown, happened 24x between 2016-06-15 and last monday; no crash since 3 days

---+++ UNIGE
   * Operations 
      * 10 machines added into the batch system (80 cores) + 3 machines replaced:
      * DELL - Intel Xeon @ 2.4 GHz - with 8 cores and 48 GB of memory
      * RAID controller: Common problem for our DPM and NFS File servers (It happened like 3/4 times during last months)
      * Increased activity from DPNC users to run in the batch system (other groups, in addition to ATLAS)
      * Still not in ATLAS production, problems related with memory (hints provided by Gianfranco)
   * Data Management: 
      * User datasets from UniGe for ATLASLOCALGROUPDISK at CSCS deleted (space can be moved to ATLASSCRATCHDISK)
      * Some problems for central deletion (fixed) - permissions related: https://ggus.eu/index.php?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=122024
