  1. Quarterly report NorthGrid Quarter 4 2005 Alessandra Forti

  2. Current site status data • Local network connectivity is that to the site SE • It is understood that SFT failures do not always result from site problems, but it is the best measure currently available. Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  3. All GridPP Resources • The GridPP-Tier-2 MoUs made reference to integrated CPU over the 3 years of GridPP2. Under the “Promised – integrated kSI2K hours until this quarter” an estimate is provided of what the Tier-2 would have expected to provide to this quarter on the basis of planned installations. “Static kSI2K” shows what would currently be expected if all purchases planned to this quarter had been made and implemented. The actual columns show what has been delivered. Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  4. LCG resources 1) The estimated figures are those that were projected for LCG planning purposes: http://lcg-computing-fabric.web.cern.ch/LCG-Computing-Fabric/GDB_resource_infos/Summary_Institutes_2004_2005_v11.htm 2) Current total job slots are those reported by EGEE/LCG gstat page. Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  5. VOs supported by site 0 => not supported 1 => supported dteam not listed Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  6. CPU used per VO over quarter (KSI2K hours) Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  7. Usage by VO for Tier-2 Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  8. Storage resources in use per VO (TB) Difficult to provide this for the period but we can at least show *current* usage. Numbers need to be provided by site Admins (> du – sh) but this will change under dCache. Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  9. CPU Usage by VO (KSI2K hours) Nb: This can be extracted from APEL – http://goc.grid-support.ac.uk/gridsite/accounting/custom.php Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  10. Usage by VO (jobs) Nb: This can be extracted from APEL Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  11. Progress over last quarter Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  12. Tier-2 risks • Here “risk” is any significant event (which has a reasonable chance of occurring) that could potentially prevent the Tier-2 from meeting its project commitments. For example, not getting expected funding to fund equipment/infrastructure is a reasonable risk whereas loss of all staff is not. Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  13. Tier-2 planning for next quarter • All Prepare for SC4 (see gridpp wiki for more detailed schedule and planning). • All upgrade dcache to latest version. • All upgrade to 2.7.0 • Lancaster incorporate 10TB DPM test machines into dcache • Lancaster improve network configuration for production system • Liverpool install more nodes (only 3 at the moment) • Manchester deliver new resources • Manchester set up production VOMS for GridPP • Sheffield test dcache installation Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  14. Objectives and deliverables for last quarter Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  15. Objectives and deliverables for next quarter Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  16. Meetings, papers & effort For Tier-2 coordinator: Quarterly report: NorthGrid

  17. Summary & outlook • Spontaneous cooperation among new posts. • Liverpool finally green dot, much improved support for LCG. Still too few resources committed still for cooling problems. • Sheffield has got few support problems since the non-funded people quit leaving the new post on his own. He has installed a dcache system to replace • Manchester has almost completed the acceptance tests which were heavily delayed by deliveries delays and cooling system not complete. However SC4 deliverables were nevertheless completed. • Manchester is still actively working on VOMS deployment and we are ready for a production system. • Lancaster successfully carrying on SC3 and testing different SRM solutions (DPM) . They have also been the best NorthGrid site this quarter. • Some of last quarter general points are still open • Even if not all directly involved in the service challenges sites should start to install software and get acquainted with it. • Given RB problems filling fabrics, can GridPP act in a way to improve this? • How will the switch from SJ4+ESLEA to SJ5 be managed Quarterly report: NorthGrid
