Issues • The system is becoming too popular for its own good • User analysis is a very popular item • Given the multi-million events available • The issue is with quotas • Job and disk • Minimize the amount of users who loop over the ESDs at the same time – Analysis Train (still to become fully operational)

ALICE activities calendar STEP’09 Cosmics data taking WMS and CREAM CE Reprocessing Pass 2 Analysis train Replication of RAW Data taking RAW deletion 12 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 2008 2009
ALICE STEP’09 activities • Replication T0->T1 • Planned together with Cosmics data taking, must be moved forward, or • We can repeat the last year’s exercise, same rates (~100MB/sec), same destinations • Re-processing with data recalls from tape at T1 • Highly desirable exercise, the data is already at the T1 MSS storage • Depending on the agreed duration, we can make more data available at the T1s
ALICE STEP’09 activities (2) • Non-Grid, but equally important activity – transfer rate tests (up to 1.25GB/sec) DAQ@P2 to CASTOR • Validation of new CASTOR and xrootd transfer protocol for RAW • Will go on just before or overlap with STEP’09 • Critically dependent on the availability of CASTOR v.2.1.8 • The transfer rate test will be coupled with first pass reco@T0
