Thanks, Ros, I’ve applied for access to hpxfer with that IP address.

Hi Ros,

I was granted access to the hpxfer server on Friday evening. From the jasmin login node, I can run the command “ssh -Y [hpxfer2.jasmin.ac.uk](http://hpxfer2.jasmin.ac.uk)” successfully but “ssh -Y [hpxfer1.jasmin.ac.uk](http://hpxfer1.jasmin.ac.uk)” does not work.

However, if I run “ssh -Y [hpxfer2.jasmin.ac.uk](http://hpxfer2.jasmin.ac.uk)” on Archer2, I get the following error.

[jweber@hpxfer2.jasmin.ac.uk](mailto:jweber@hpxfer2.jasmin.ac.uk): Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic)

I set off a rerun of u-dk384 last night but received the error below on pptransfer.

Lmod is automatically replacing “cce/15.0.0” with “gcc/11.2.0”.

Due to MODULEPATH changes, the following have been reloaded:

Is there something else I need to do to set up the link between Archer2 and Jasmin’s hpxfer?

I added a "/’ to the end of the Jasmin path and the archive appears to have worked. Not quite sure why but looks like everything is sorted, thanks for your help.

Hi,

Just a quick follow up question. I’ve had a couple of pptransfer failures with the last one returning the error message below.

[WARN] file:atmospp.nl: skip missing optional source: namelist:moose\_arch  
[WARN] file:atmospp.nl: skip missing optional source: namelist:script\_arch  
Traceback (most recent call last):

I can’t work out if this is a disk quota error on Jasmin or Archer2. Could you advise?

Thanks,

James

Hi,

u-dk655, a coy of u-dk384, has failed on atmos\_main with the below error which I haven’t seen before:

Given problems with Archer2 storage, is this a problem with my suite or a wider issue?

We see these errors from time to time - a retrigger of the failed task should be enough.

Hi, separate issue but it looks like the bottleneck for this run is the postproc task rather than atmos\_main. I’ve cut down the output diagnostics and increased the memory for the POSTPROC\_RESOURCE but is there anything else I can do to speed it up?

Thanks,

James

My credential was still in date but I have renewed it so it runs to 18th Dec anyway.

Jasmin has been having issues but I think they are now resolved. Does this look like a Jasmin or Archer2 issue?

Hi James,

There have been some storage issues at CEDA since the 14th, especially affecting /gws/nopw/ . They seem to have fixed this today but have advised that this is ‘at risk’

Hi James,

I made some changes recently to the `postproc_2.4_archer2_jasmin_rewrite` branch in preparation for moving everyone to using Globus for data transfer.

Please set the revision number of the branch to 5092 to pick up the version compatible with your current setup.

Regards,  
Ros

Sorry, does this change only need to be done in fcm\_make\_pp or do I need to change the below in postproc/rose-app.conf too?

Hi James,

Just in the `fcm_make_pp` app.  
And yes you will need to re-run `fcm_make_pp` & `fcm_make2_pp` tasks either by stopping the suite and starting again or reloading the suite and retriggering those tasks.

Cheers,  
Ros.

Thanks, Ros. I made what I thought was the correct change but u-dk655 has failed again on pptransfer.

Could you check my suite to see if I have implemented the revision correctly?

As soon as ARCHER2/PUMA2 come back I’ll take a look.
