Tier1 and Tier-2 Weekly Report 2012-08-14
General News
- ADC and ATLAS Computing News [20120814]
- CA availability for July all good (>94%)
-
- WLCG availability also good
-
- Special XP_Higgs production started on CA cloud (2.3M events, AFII) for the Higgs group (lepton+tau): e.g. JHUPythia8_AU2CTEQ6L1_ggH125_Spin{0,1,2}m_WW2tau
- ADC Weekly meeting
- Short meeting this week. No mention of EMI upgrade position this week.
- Some issues in the US with users running private MC production. Not forbidden but discouraged. ADC will act if site services affected.
- Too many user jobs at CERN affected LSF again
- Short analysis of wallclock time for user analysis jobs over last three months (pathena, prun and ganga) to figure out what impact time limits may have. Fraction of jobs completed:
| |
< 1 hour |
< 12 hours |
< 24 hours |
| pathena |
0.491 |
0.970 |
0.992 |
| prun |
0.862 |
0.990 |
0.997 |
-
- Less than 3% of jobs would be affected with a time limit of 12 hours.
- Setting job queue lengths per site based on published information in AGIS is the goal
- CA Cloud Squad Actions [20120626]
- User DaTRI requests approved / processed (last week)
- Declared Downtimes
- CA-ALBERTA-WESTGRID-T2 UNSCHEDULED downtime (OUTAGE) [09-08-2012 01:30 to 09-08-2012 16:00 UTC ] - Unexpected power supply fluctuation and related networking issue
- CA-ALBERTA-WESTGRID-T2 SCHEDULED downtime (OUTAGE) [09-08-2012 16:00 to 09-08-2012 20:00 UTC] - Internal management switch matainenance -- Software downgrade
