Change of backend storage server for myproxy.cern.ch

 
Description: 

Myproxy.cern.ch is going to be reconfigured with a new backend storage system to store proxy credentials.

Write access to myproxy.cern.ch will be disabled for a few minutes during the intervention. During the few minutes when write access is disabled, attemps to put or destroy proxy certificates will fail. On the other hand, there will be no interruption of read access, hence proxy certificate renewal should be functional for grid jobs at all times.

Reason for this intervention: 

The current backend storage system is about to be retired.

Effective from date: 
Tuesday, April 23, 2013 - 14:00
End date: 
Tuesday, April 23, 2013 - 15:00
Service Element Affected: 
MyProxy Service
Impact on service: 
Service will be in read-only mode during the intervention
