Description:
We are going to enable Oracle network check-summing and encryption on the Physics DB Integration (dev/test) services. The intervention is transparent and requires no downtime.
Only potential drawback is that clients using old Oracle client software (or old JDBC drivers) will not be able to connect to the DB. In these cases, the fix is to upgrade to the latest release available (ex 11.2.0.3). Normally, clients connecting to the Integration services have the correct releases.
Specific Service Detail:
Atlas, LCG, CMS, LHCB, Compass integration db services
Reason for this intervention:
Increase the security of the Oracle network layer between clients and servers
Effective from date:
Thursday, August 8, 2013 - 09:00
End date:
Thursday, August 8, 2013 - 09:30
Service Element Affected:
Experiment Database Service
Impact on service:
Intervention should be transparent
