Here is the new update. I will copy it here for those who don't want to click to the operational updates
----------------------------------------June 2, 2025 Kubernetes Migration of MCM1 WU Task Generation: We were able to confirm identical checksums and database updates for several batches between the existing and new approach to MCM1 WU delivery today. We are testing failure scenarios and planning the handoff of responsibilities from current infrastructure (remote UHN server generating tasks, WCG servers downloading, preparing/templating the input and XML files, tracking the tasks in the BOINC database as WUs and results). Likely, this will take a few days to complete. Testing: What remains to be done is some minor "chaos testing" on QA servers (killing the process, killing the box, DB drops the connection, etc), which we intend to subject the new all-in-one service that is replacing the download, template input files/build, and create work "commit new WU records to BOINC in batch" stages of the MCM1 workunit batch generation, and delivery pipeline. This is building on work we have already completed, which generates the MAM1 beta WUs, almost identical to the MCM1 WUs, directly on WCG servers. ARP1 also has all task inputs generated locally, and once this MCM1 migration is completed, we intend to move ARP1 job scheduling to the Kubernetes cluster as well, in addition to MAM1 and all future projects.

It bodes well for the future.

I'm so glad they gave us such an informative update.
I'm curious how all these changes interact with the server room upgrades. It sounds like they are bring more of the process locally. I'm getting a good flow of MCM right now, and I have some ARP WUs (never enough, but I'm glad to have my machine crunching some) I'm going off grid for a long weekend. So you will need to post and keep each other informed on the status of the system. |

It's that time again, every 120 days or so I need to make a new thread. I'm ending this thread here, once I post a new thread I'll put the link in this post and the first post.
