General News
- ADC and ATLAS Computing News [20121009]
- ADC Weekly meeting
- LHC 1.12 fb^-1 delivered. Max lum 7.3x10^33^cm^2s^-1
- MC Production team added some manpower Report
- Some improvements to evgen
- Significant contributions from Higgs group analysis activities (tau embedding)
- AMOD Report
- Drop in some production tasks on Monday (pending tasks with no input)
- Misreporting of some site services corrected
- Problems with VOMS proxies from BNL
- dq2 cannot recognize the FQAN of proxies issued by BNL VOMS, OK for CERN proxies. Updated to latest panda/DDM version
- Transfers failing from SARA -> CA ‘available CRL expired’. Suspected SARA, FTS bug GGUS 86889
- Known FTS bug: GGUS:81844
- Patch for proxy expiration issue available and deployed at RAL, PIC, TRIUMF, which fixes sporadic problem with delegation
- All T1s should deploy the patch
- Still need occassional tomcat restarts; FTS & VOMS developers still working on it
- GROUPDISK - Report from Ueda
- Goal - improve space usage by allocating GROUPDISK inside DATADISK
- DQ2 uses namespace rather than space token; Works fine for dCache (not STORM)
- ddm-ops changes the space token from ATLASGROUPDISK to ATLASDATADISK, and nothing else; no migration needed
- Reallocate GROUPDISK space to DATADISK as it becomes available
- Potential issue is for primary datasets in DATADISK which could potentially fill the space token. Secondary will be removed automatically when groupdisk files subscribed.
- Expect group space managers to monitor and report
- Monitoring plots and reports being updated to make this information more explicit - new DDM dashboard under development
- CA Cloud Squad Actions [20120626]
Ignoring all IAAS exclusions and resets (numerous this last week)

- panda monitor for PD2P activity within clouds (default view (last 7 days) units = datasets)
- Open Issues and Ongoing Discussions
- Sites should be providing the April 2012 storage pledge.

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
