【WCG】Restart update 重启更新

We continue working hard to restart WCG as soon as possible.
我们将继续努力尽快重启 WCG。


Published on: 7 May 2022  

While we continue working hard to restart WCG as soon as possible, we want to provide an update on the current status. We are currently facing unexpected issues with the load balancer - a small but critical component that ensures science servers will cope with increased workloads. If we do not resolve this in time, it would prevent us from restarting on May 9th. We will provide an update on the result of our efforts to resolve the issue Sunday evening.

A brief update on science

WCG downtime enabled teams to catch up with analyses and validations. ARP project continues to analyze data, and started to prepare the online portal to help disseminate the results to wider scientific community. OPN1 is busy validating results from the first round of computation (validation has been delayed due to problems in Europe). MCM is partially on pause until we fully restart (as the MCM team is now the WCG team). SCC is also finishing preclinical validation of previous drugs, and is preparing new targets for the computation on the WCG. We do have work-units prepared for the restart for both OPN1 and MCM projects.

We really appreciate all the support messages we have received on the last update, your patience and continued support of WCG and its projects.

Thank you

WCG Tech team

在我们继续努力尽快重启 WCG 的同时，我们希望提供有关当前状态的更新。我们目前正面临负载均衡器的意外问题——这是一个小而关键的组件，可确保科学服务器能够应对增加的工作负载。如果我们不及时解决这个问题，它将阻止我们在 5 月 9 日重新启动。我们将在周日晚上提供我们为解决该问题所做的努力的最新结果。

科学的简要更新

WCG 停机时间使团队能够赶上分析和验证。ARP 项目继续分析数据，并开始准备在线门户，以帮助将结果传播给更广泛的科学界。OPN1 正忙于验证第一轮计算的结果（由于欧洲的问题，验证已经延迟）。MCM 部分暂停，直到我们完全重启（因为 MCM 团队现在是 WCG 团队）。SCC 还完成了以前药物的临床前验证，并正在为 WCG 的计算准备新的目标。我们确实为 OPN1 和 MCM 项目的重启准备了工作单元。

我们非常感谢我们在上次更新中收到的所有支持信息、您的耐心以及对 WCG 及其项目的持续支持。

谢谢

Unfortunately, we must now conduct further testing starting tomorrow to confirm that the system is ready. While we were able to resolve issues with the load balancer HAProxy and partially address a second issue preventing clients from accessing certain queues published by our message broker internally, additional testing to confirm there will be no unexpected effects resulting from these changes is now needed due to security implications. We continue to work on this tonight and we aim to update you tomorrow [May 9th, 2022] with the revised start date for the WCG, unless we run into some unexpected challenges.

In preparation for the imminent restart of the WCG, the OPN project has prepared a substantial stockpile of packages on the OPN server for both OPN1 and OPNG. The newer packages are non-reactive and dock the ZINC library against PLPro, targeting the binding site of the ligand in PDB entry 7LOS.
This binding site was chosen because some of the molecules with activity in the lab experiments dock well to it. The OPN team plans to do reactive docking as well at some point on this same binding site.

Thank you

不幸的是，我们现在必须从明天开始进行进一步的测试，以确认系统已准备就绪。我们今晚继续努力，我们的目标是明天 [2022 年 5 月 9 日] 向您更新 WCG 的修订开始日期，除非我们遇到一些意想不到的挑战。

这意思是5月9号无法按期上线，继续delay呗

这回延迟到啥时间都不说了，不靠谱

我们对消息经纪人和IBM WebSphere遇到的问题进行了进一步调查。 我们能够解决IBM WebSphere中陈旧的JAAS配置,这导致了需要更新凭证的JMS连接,只要WebSpere中已经存在任何正确别名凭证,就不会重新初始化。 配置。 因此,过时的凭据只是在WebSphere的脚本重构中幸存下来,重新启动时污染所有队列和主题连接。 虽然我们的团队为IBM MQ使用典型的诊断工具,但我们没有从他们那里获得任何更多的见解,而且在发现我们的部署脚本中的错误时大大延迟。 今天上午,在WAS命令行控制台中,通过所有配置脚本和手动检查每个引用对象,才发现这个问题。
由于我们现在能够继续测试系统,我们计划重新评估我们能够承诺在星期四晚上(2022年5月12日)(美国东部时间)之前最早的WCG重启日期。 我们将在12日发布更新的时间表到社交媒体和网站。
谢谢你们

又双叒叕推迟到5月24日

老外真是拖沓，即便把项目捐赠出去，也不用搞这么复杂吧，这是要推到重来的节奏。浪费两个月的算力，可惜。

我有一种不祥的预感。5月24日又要鸽了

果不其然，明日又没法开张

QA测试已经成功完成，所有的bug都已经解决。 生产环境现在正在进行测试。考虑到我们遇到的意想不到的问题，我们宁愿多测试几天。  我们将在未来几天提供进一步的细节。  简而言之就是“我们又鸽啦！咕咕咕”
