Publication from : Darren Moore (darren.moore@stfc.ac.uk)

As part of our work to upgrade the RAL-LCG2 Tier 1 site away from Red Hat 7 derived OSs, we are announcing that the GridFTP protocol (aka gsiftp) will be no longer be supported at our site from the 3rd of June 2024.

The services affected by this include FTS and all aspects of Echo.

Please inform us you are still interacting with either of these services in any way, including data access, deletions or fallback, and if you are, what your timeline is for switching to another protocol.

If you have any further questions or queries regarding this decommissioning process, please do not hesitate to contact the RAL Tier-1 Production Team.

Regards

Darren Moore
RAL Tier-1 Operations Manager
