PSI CMS Tier-3 cluster is now online

Summary

Details

Dear Swiss CMS colleagues

The PSI CMS Tier-3 cluster is now online. This is the common cluster for CMS members of ETHZ, University of Zurich and PSI. We have had a testing period of 1 month with a few advanced users where we tried to identify any remaining issues, and we can now run the cluster in production.

Essentially, this cluster offers 64 Xeon 2.83GHz Cores and about 75 TB of grid enabled storage. (Cluster Specs: https://twiki.cscs.ch/twiki/bin/view/CmsTier3/Tier3Overview)

Our Wiki is the central point of information on this cluster:

https://twiki.cscs.ch/twiki/bin/view/CmsTier3/WebHome

There you can find documentation, how to sign up for an account and the Tier-3 user mailing list. We are still expanding the Wiki and will be thankful for your feedback.

Kind Regards D. Feichtinger

PS: Please forward this mail to any interested members of your groups that are not on this CSCS Tier-2 dedicated list.
