Tier1 and Tier-2 Weekly Report 2010-01-05
General News
* ADC News [20100105]
- ADC Weekly Meeting - now scheduled for Wednesdays
* information system reminders [20100105]
- sites will be contacted in the next week if their published values of logicalCPU, physicalCPU, HEP-SPEC and kSI2K from their site BDIIs show abnormalities
- in terms of the HEPSPEC number advertisement, sites that haven't run the benchmark yet should do so for their resources and add it to the site BDII.
- As of today this has only been done for TRIUMF, SFU, CA-ALBERTA-WESTGRID-T2 and AUSTRALIA-ATLAS.
* CA Cloud Squad Actions [20100105]
* ROC_Canada news [20100105]
- shifters
- each site should provide the names of at least one volunteer to perform shifts so as to share the load
- shifts are relatively light, during business hours, and involves checking a dashboard and making sure tickets are addressed in a timely way by the sites involved
- please contact Di, Reda and Mike regarding shifters volunteering from your site
- sites are reminded to submit to Di the SLA between their site and ROC_Canada before the start of next week
* Squid deployment [20100105]
- tested in SAM for ATLAS: https://lcg-sam.cern.ch:8443/sam/sam.py?sensors=CE®ions=CERN&vo=atlas&order=SiteName&funct=ShowSensorTests
, also within GangaRobot
- currently status as of this morning (WARN is ok)
- CA-ALBERTA-WESTGRID-T2 WARN (local squid server offline since 20091108)
- SFU-LCG2 OK (for both CEs; Victoria squid is the backup but not online)
- TORONTO-LCG2 WARN (no local squid; primary backup points to ALBERTA squid but fails due to network routing issue + squid offline; secondary backup to SFU OK)
- TRIUMF-LCG2 WARN (ce1) OK (ce2) (local Frontier launchpad and BNL as backup)
- VICTORIA-LCG2 WARN (local squid access error; backup points to SFU squid)
- ATLAS_AUSTRALIA - WARN (local squid ok; backup access to VICTORIA error)

Site Reports
Alberta
Recent Issues
- summary of this weeks Savannah bugs and GGUS tickets for site:
- production job issues
- See "Production" Activities section below
- analysis job issues
- See "Notes" section below
- ALBERTA-LCG2 site
- site offline to ATLAS since early December 2009 and currently in state of unscheduled downtime in GOCDB
- site storage migrated to CA-ALBERTA-WESTGRID-T2 site (except for 5.5 TB which are hosted on a server showing memory errors)
- site will be transitioned to Tier-3 functionality, upgrade to SL5 and return of SRM storage functions
- CA-ALBERTA-WESTGRID-T2 site installation status [20091215]
-
- updated setup to multi-homed pools to separate internal and external traffic (instructions from Sergey)
- site validated for production and analysis activity 20091222 and marked online in Panda 20091223
- savannah bug filed requesting site be added to Tier-2 availability and reliability display pages
- items to be followed-up:
- APEL accounting information publishing
- SL5 WNs and additional CE
- need to update to dCache golden release cycle from currently running 1.9.3-3
- site currently quiet for production with jobs listed as assigned but not running [20100105]
- initial investigation appears to be a combination of the job requirements for a release not yet installed at the site, along with failing installation of this particular release
Outstanding Issues
- squid server (vm) offline since restart to CA-ALBERTA-WESTGRID-T2 services following scheduled downtime for power maintenance [20091108]
- restart errors under investigation; automatic fail-over to secondary squid at SFU functioning as expected
Recent Issues
- summary of this weeks Savannah bugs and GGUS tickets for site:
- production job issues
- See "Production" Activities section below
- analysis job issues
- See "Notes" section below
- identified one chassis of nodes where IB performance was degraded
- nodes in chassis marked offline for repair by vendor
- new allocations for ATLAS fairshare between the bugaboo and snowpatch clusters implemented and checked prior to christmas break
Outstanding Issues
- SFU storage access protocol sanity check [20091022]
- missing dcap - Status of this?
- apel publishing [20090825]
- apel publishing information missing for October (see above plots) [20091013]
- publishing status for dteam appears empty since mid-July and coincides with appearance of the atcan group in the status graphs (see above)
- confirmed to coincide with change in VOMS group and role for direct tests by Sergey
- apel publishing results for September and October 2009 [20091110]
- low values published but not expected when comparing with ATLAS production dashboard for the same period
- GlueHostBenchmarkSF00 set to zero for both clusters in site BDII - fixed by site - reparsing and republishing to apel performed but still low values reported
- low-priority follow-up needed given that dteam jobs are observed regularly and consistently at other sites (Alberta for example)
- discrepancy between SRM and DQ2 views of MCDISK occupancy (observed during STEP09)
- list of files expected to exist at SFU SE extracted from dump of TRIUMF LFC
- list of files expected to exist at SFU SE but not found in pnfs: lost_atlasmcdisk_pnfs.files
- Sergey creating list of files that exist in pnfs but are not on any pools
- Sergey additionally creating list of files that exist in pnfs but are not on any pools
- SFU-LCG2_MCDISK cleaned by DDM Ops and helped resolve the discrepancy between DQ2 and SRM usage statistics (20091217)
- issue now considered closed
Victoria
Recent Issues
- summary of this weeks Savannah bugs and GGUS tickets for site:
- production job issues
- See "Production" Activities section below
- analysis job issues
- see "Notes" section below
- will likely switch to using the TRIUMF top-level BDII from the CERN-based BDII in order to help resolve observed timeouts
Outstanding Issues
- SCRATCHDISK became full [20091112]
- action to Bryan to write short srm script to generate warning notifications to sites when token areas approach becoming full
Toronto
Recent Issues
- summary of this weeks Savannah bugs and GGUS tickets for site:

- See "Production" Activities section below
- analysis job issues
- See "Notes" section below
- TORONTO-LCG2 site

- CA-SCINET-T2 installation:
Outstanding Issues
- Squid/Frontier access tests via ReadReal [20091028]
- strange network path issue seen when attempting to reach Alberta squid server, attempting to reach via LightPath but fails

Recent Issues
- summary of this weeks Savannah bugs and GGUS tickets for site:
- production job issues
- See "Production" Activities section below
- analysis job issues

- additional hardware arrived from vendor for T1
- pnfs database installed and cached locally on each WN to help resolve SRM overload issues previously observed
- significantly reduces load on pnfs server
- need to investigate in cooperation with panda the implementation of queues for short jobs (such as merging) in order to minimize the number of concurrently running jobs of this particular type
