*Minutes:*

ATLAS

difficult month: load changed a lot because of the workloads / huge mc samples to opportunistic 266% translating into heavy rereco back to CSCS

Storage review for dCache needed by the end of Dec.

Reprocessing rel21 to rel22 data+mc rereco and asking run2+3 to rerun

CMS

difficult month on T3 at PSI

SAM jobs failing with CSCS in waiting room

LHCb

The changes introduced in the last weeks seem to have solved the stability problems for LHCb. The jobs run most of the time now with an efficiency of 99% or even higher.

Miguel also managed to configure the job submission to run from the native openSUSE system, where LHCb starts a singularity image directly from CVMFS. This reduces another layer of software and seems to work without problems too.

CSCS

Several ATLAS/CMS penfing jobs: net interruption and  files cleaning

Resulted in !27% wasted cycles

Temporary solution waiting for more space:

capped #CPU overcompensated by the higher efficiency because of the use of 50TB scratch space 

*Mont Fort* new name for the virtual cluster for WLCG:

- testing different nodes configurations

      * LHEP:
         * Operation is very stable since a couple of months
         * Lustre extension (+35% HDDs) is expected to be delivered in February 2021
      * UBELIX:
         * Stable operation, a bit more spotty CPU delivery
      * UNIGE:
         * Attracted lots of analysis, but cluster is behind NAT and there is a 1GB bottleneck (NIC on the NAT server) that chocks transfers and causes a lot of failures
         * Took the queue offline while waiting for an upgrade<br /><br />
   * Accounting ATLAS dashboard vs slurm: within *1%*
   * Accounting CRIC vs slurm: *-11%* for WallClock, *-21%* for HS06
   * Accounting CRIC vs ATLAS DDM storage:<b> -5%</b> for installed, *-1%* for used
