Swiss Grid Operations Meeting on 2021-07-08 at 14:00

Next meeting: 5 August 2021



Minutes:

CSCS reorganisation:

- new WLCG platform integration lead by Miguel - replacing Nick’s at operations

- more details/ charts etc.. on the organisation will be posted by Pablo

ATLAS:

- Investigate the discrepancy in storage (1904 vs. 1896 vs. 2100 TB)

  • Rucio dump, we have all details, we need to verify them with Dario
  • maybe a problem with the token update ? Derek seemed to confirm so
- DPM:
  • add all disks on the new server, install dpm stack, then transfer the jobs to the new server and then drop the old one
  • timescale for new disk installation by CSCS ~ next 4 to 8 weeks
  • ATLAS DPM work can begin following this
  • ATLAS would need 180-200 TB of new disk to be set aside for this change (similar to the current size).
LHCb:

- GGUS need to be addressed faster (after 4 days the evidence of the problem is gone)

- some cores got lost (dip in LHCb monitoring) afterwards discrepancy between #jobs seen by LHCb (~2500) and CSCS (~3000)

  • to be checked probably fixed over w/e by an ARC restart
CMS:

- in waiting room / SAM tests failing

- need someone once a day to check GGUS ticket

- CMS dcache fix implemented with Elia

  • CSCS needs to validate the solution
CSCS:

- all experiments exceeded the pledged

- DPM discussion --> see ATLAS

Pledges:

- discuss the final numbers with Pablo the last week of July

- CHIPP agreed on a “scenario 6” in Pablos xls, meaning:

  • one boost on disk
  • compensated by CPU
  • precise numbers being finalized

AFTER THE SUMMER BREAK

Brainstorm meeting for:

- T2 requirements to run on ALPS

- Possible move of the PSI-T3 to ALPS (users access management)
