SSB Results
- Critical tests for each site in the Site Status dashBoard are available at the links below
SSB PanDA Test Queue Availability (month)
- this metric, measured for the analysis queues, defines the site status for data preplacement as alpha (
T2D and avail > 90%), bravo (T2 and avail > 90%) or charlie (< 90%).
SAM Results
- site service status via Gridview
- Please check your site
- April 2012 Detailed Site Information (valid until 20120430):

TERMINATES NORMALLY:NO MORE EVENTS IN FILE".Savannah 94891,129140:MC12
production - HIGGS.Many jobs failed at different sites in US cloud.
Submitted with the new JO (20 events/job),but it's clearly still causing
some trouble.The same problem with t.827550,51,53,55,60,65,67 in various
clouds:1000's of failed jobs,each having run for ~1-2 days before
crashing and being retried many times.Tasks set to "finished",but
t.827565,67 are still "running".The same issue with t.846555:50% failure
rate, in "running" state.
