Frequently asked questions about infrastructure shifts shifts
These are some questions that came up while perusing the How-To-Fix pages, in preparation for taking shifts. Feel free to respond to the questions or add new questions.
- When one of the glastlnx* disks becomes nagios reports disks becoming full how is more diskspace disk space allocated and by whom?
- This depends on what type of disk
- Local disk on glastlnx* – Contact Navid to cleanup
- NFS disk – see this list of which disk is used for what
- AFS disk?
- xrootd disks – contact Wilko, or Richard for more $$$
- Nagios and Ganglia show a lot of status information. How are newbie shift takers suppose to use that information?
- The only page you would be likely to look at regularly is the page which lists current problems. The other pages are used only for troubleshooting.
- Is there a check list that Infrastructure shift takers need to go over at the beginning/end of each shift?
