---++ Analysis exercises

---+++ Evaluation of the analysis exercise

I would consider the exercise a success. In week 24 we got full load, and T2_CH_CSCS delivered 98% of the pledged slots, while also being under considerable load from ATLAS (though not from LHCb). Job failures due to the _site fail_ category are small, except for the night where 3 WNs died because of disk failures and acted as black holes. 
In week 25 we delivered 185% of the pledged resources, but at this time CMS was basically alone on the cluster. There were almost no ATLAS jobs (because of some flawed SAM tests, it seems we have been marked as down for 3 days. This certainly was not the case).
We do not have much site fail entries, but there still are a lot of application and unknown failures, and since this varies a bit between centers, we need to understand what the reasons are. I have no clue at this moment.

CPU efficiency of the CMS jobs was good, as could be told by local monitoring (see below). ATLAS jobs did have an efficiency problem, I think mostly because the did a lot of input file staging to local disk (all the files that a job needed!!! because of ganga framework). This ended up in overwhelming the network bandwidth of the WNs for these heavy multicore machines (16 cores per node, only 1Gb connection).

Access to files by CMS over dcap was ok, with one exception when to0 many jobs wanted access in parallel to the JobRobot data sets (look below). This can be detected and alleviated by replication of the files over the cluster. But without a HSM behind dcache this replication must get triggered by hand.

In respect to CE configuration, we still need to implement correct fair share between CMS prod and other (analysis) jobs. This is planned for the next downtime.

---+++ central monitoring

Table entries taken from central [[https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/Step09AnalysisMetrics][T2 STEP09 analysis page]]

Note: The low values for *Percentage of Analysis Pledge Used* have the primary reason of not enough jobs being sent. However, we should watch out for conditions where a VO cannot get their assigned resources in appreciable time.

---+++ local monitoring

Note: On Monday June 8 (beginning of week 24) I became aware of the local monitoring ignoring ATLAS pilot and nordugrid jobs. One can still derive the approx. number of jobs by looking whether there were any queued jobs at a time, and then assuming that the running job queue must have been filled to the top with these jobs (this assumption is almost always valid).

During week 22 we noticed two conditions disturbing the cluster
   * There were ATLAS jobs which did heavy prestaging of files from the SE to the WN using dccp. Many nodes ended up with massive I/O wait due to the many dccp processes fighting for the bandwidth and the access to the local scratch space.
   * ATLAS then shifted away from using dccp, afterwards seemingly using direct dcap. It seems to me that this is still a strange theoretical payload. The ratio of I/O to CPU is excessive.
   * An ATLAS user had reserved 16CPUs for his jobs, without actually making use of them. This blocked the queue and is the explanation for the queued jobs in the above graphs despite only a subset of our actual cores being taken.

---++ Data transfers

---+++ Evaluation of the transfer exercise

This is based on the monitoring, below.

First day: Very nice high quality throughput from FNAL. In the first 12 h I had avg. speed of about 70 MB/s. Problems with IN2P3 (their SE had an error which failed half of the transfers). No Files at all from our dedicated T1 at FZK???

Second day: Still good transfers from FNAL, albeit somewhat slower. One big set finished. Some files from FZK, but at slow speed (~5 MB/s on avg.). Still about 50% failures from IN2P3, a big fraction still with the "gsiftp protocol not supported" error.

Sixth day: *It is a cause of concern that the troughput from our primary T1 at FZK is so low.* Even after 6 days, only 12% of the files are at CSCS. The best latency/throughput we had over the ocean from FNAL.

I would consider the exercise successful in respect to the tools we have, but a failure in relation to the stability of the transfers for some T1s.


A graph presented by Stephano Belforte in the [[http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=62300&view=standard&showDate=23-June-2009&showSession=all&detailLevel=contribution][STEP'09 Analysis meeting of 2009-06-23]] shows CSCS as a _normal_ site in relation to transfers. T2_DE_RWTH and T2_US_Caltech were shown as _fast_ sites. However, since RWTH also has the T1_DE_FZK as primary Tier-1 and all our troubles came from there (while all the good transfers came from FNAL), I wonder why there seems to be such a difference.

---++ Events happening on the cluster

---+++ 2009-05-20/21 SRM queue overfilled by thousands of GET requests from ATLAS jobs

Jobs from two users (one is from the ATLAS central operations responsible for the STEP09 HammerCloud pre-tests) caused the SRM queue to grow by several jobs a second. In the SRM-storage01 cell we had to put maxReadyJobs=3000 to keep the site up for the meantime. One user we had to ban temporarily, until Hurng-Chun Lee from ATLAS traced back the problem to a python routine trying to calculate the adler32 checksum by reading in the full file into a python string (and overstepping the python boundary on these systems), therby hanging the system in a bad way. This was corrected.

---+++ 2009-05-29 ATLAS heavy staging to local disc by dccp impacts cluster

We saw heavy dcap activity and many CPUs with significant I/O wait states. Some nodes actually became unresponsive. This was traced back to multiple dccp processes running on every node and writing to local disk. dccp is used to copy whole files per dcap from the SE, so ATLAS seems to follow a model where they first stage the whole file to local disk. However, our cluster is laid out for analysis jobs to read directly via dcap from the storage.
This was not a problem, before, because like many dcache sites we limit the gridftp transfers to a few per pool, because these do high efficiency sequential reads which are more efficient when scheduled sequentially. We allow many more dcap movers in the assumption that jobs using these usually will keep open the filehandle for reading sparsely. But if people use dccp for staging, they get the dcap mover limit, resulting in a max of 100 movers per pool in our configuration!!!
Todays nodes tend to have more and more cores and less disks per core (our current cluster has blade nodes with 16 cores, but only one scratch disk - certainly not ideal). It is bad policy to have many jobs stage files locally, which thereafter are maybe read sparsely. Also, it is bad if all kinds of jobs stage the identical files to local disk. Also, it seemed to me that the ganga robot staged all the files for the whole job at the beginning instead of getting one, processing one, and then getting the next.

After contacting ATLAS (Johannes Elmsheuser and Hurn-Chun Lee) they disabled the usage of dccp in Ganga.
Over the next days we still saw high numbers of dcacp movers and I/O wait on nodes running ATLAS jobs, but seemingly this was now truly using dcap internally. Still, it seems that the jobs have very low processing in comparison to I/O (maybe almost empty loops over events?). Never seen that in CMS jobs up to now. Disruptive to the efficiency of the cluster.
If these are real payloads, we need to reconsider the design of the cluster.

Our monitoring points to pilot jobs being the most troublesome (may also be nordugrid).

---+++ 2009-06-07/08 Three WNs acting as black holes during the night

Three nodes went down with disk failures. Unluckily the batch system still considered them as eligible. Here we see a design weakness in our cluster. We have 16 cores per blade node, but only two disks. One disk is for the OS, while there is only one scratch disk. Especially in a mode where all jobs seem to do heavy staging to local disk (like the ATLAS jobs we see), the disks are exercised to their limit. We will try to repair these deficiencies in the next upgrade which is under planning, now.

The CMS SAM tests marked our CE as down during the night from June 07/08, which also is shown in the tables above (week 24).

---+++ 2009-06-13 more than 100 dcap movers for a CMS pool

We currently allow 100 dcap transfers per pool. about 125 mover were accessing se04_cms around 17h, so some of them got queued. I set the max value for this pool to 125. Let's see whether the pool can take that. May be better to look at replication.

This output shows the number of dcache movers and to which pnfs IDs they are connected. Below is a list mapping these IDs to files.

---+++ 2009-06-16 again queued dcap movers for CMS

The storage pools are overwhelmed by too many parallel requests for the same files, ending up in more than 100 movers per pool. A look at the details (below) shows that all files in high demand belong to these two data sets:

   * */QCD_pt_0_15/JobRobot_IDEAL_V9_JobRobot/GEN-SIM-RAW-RECO*
   * */QCD_pt_0_15/SAM_IDEAL_V9_SAM/GEN-SIM-RAW-RECO*

These data sets are used for testing and artificial load by JobRobot, etc. For normal job loads it is improbable for our cluster size that we will often come into such an overload situation, because not all jobs will want to access the same files.
We should replicate these two data sets.

I replicated both datasets. An example for how to do it using the present version of my dcache shellutils:

<pre>
find /pnfs/lcg.cscs.ch/cms/trivcat/store/mc/SAM/QCD_pt_0_15/GEN-SIM-RAW-RECO/IDEAL_V9_SAM/0000 -type f > dataset-SAM-pnfs.lst

dc_get_ID_from_pnfsnamelist.sh dataset-SAM-pnfs.lst | dc_get_cacheinfo_from_IDlist.sh | dc_replicate_IDlist.sh -p "se10_cms se11_cms se12_cms se13_cms se14_cms se15_cms se16_cms se17_cms" -f -d -r 2
</pre>
