CMS wants to upgrade WMAgent to bring in a new version of CouchDB. I've just submitted a new workflow which should start draining around midnight Sunday (European). Please be ready to set NoNewTasks late Sunday to avoid any problems. Hopefully we'll be up again by Monday night.  |

CERN IT also wants to recreate the VM that we run the agent on, to move it to a new Hypervisor. So the downtime may be a bit longer than I anticipated, but hopefully just a few hours. |

Master.log shows many of this lines: 07/02/22 17:31:16 (pid:16879) CONFIGURATION PROBLEM: Failed to insert ClassAd attribute STARTD_PARTITIONABLE_SLOT_ATTRS = MemoryUsage,ProportionalSetSizeKb. The most common reason for this is that you forgot to quote a string value in the list of attributes being added to the MASTER ad. 07/02/22 17:31:16 (pid:16879) CONFIGURATION PROBLEM: Failed to insert ClassAd attribute GLIDEIN_Resource_Slots = Iotokens,80,,type=main.
