The Worldwide LHC Computing GridLevel 1 Service Milestones • 31 Dec 05 • Tier-0/1 high-performance network operational at CERN and 3 Tier-1s. • 31 Dec 05 • 750 MB/s data recording demonstration at CERN: Data generator disk tape sustaining 750 MB/s for one week using the CASTOR 2 mass storage system. • Jan 06 – Feb 06 • Throughput tests • SC4a 28 Feb 06 • All required software for baseline services deployed and operational at all Tier-1s and at least 20 Tier-2 sites • Mar06 • Tier-0/1 high-performance network operational at CERN and 6 Tier-1s, at least 3 via GEANT. • SC4b 30 Apr 06 • Service Challenge 4 Set-up: Set-up complete and basic service demonstrated, capable of running experiment-supplied packaged test jobs, data distribution tested. • 30 Apr 06 • 1.0 GB/s data recording demonstration at CERN: Data generator disk tape sustaining 1.0 GB/s for one week using the CASTOR 2 mass storage system and the new tape equipment. • SC4 31 May 06 Service Challenge 4: • Start of stable service phase, including all Tier-1s and 40 Tier-2 sites. Service Challenge Phase 4: Piano di attività e impatto sulla infrastruttura di rete
The Worldwide LHC Computing GridLevel 1 Service Milestones • The service must be able to support the full computing model of each experiment, including simulation and end-user batch analysis at Tier-2 sites. • Criteria for successful completion of SC4: By end of service phase (end September 2006) • 8 Tier-1s and 20 Tier-2s must have demonstrated availability better than 90% of the levels specified the WLCG MoU [adjusted for sites that do not provide a 24 hour service] • Success rate of standard application test jobs greater than 90% (excluding failures due to the applications environment and non-availability of sites) • Performance and throughput tests complete: Performance goal for each Tier-1 is • the nominal data rate that the centre must sustain during LHC operation (200 MB/s for CNAF): • CERN-disk network Tier-1-tape. • Throughput test goal is to maintain for one week an average throughput of 1.6 GB/s from disk at CERN to tape at the Tier-1 sites. All Tier-1 sites must participate. • 30 Sept 06 • 1.6 GB/s data recording demonstration at CERN: Data generator disk tape sustaining 1.6 GB/s for one week using the CASTOR mass storage system. • 30 Sept 06 • Initial LHC Service in operation: Capable of handling the full nominal data rate between CERN and Tier-1s. The service will be used for extended testing of the computing systems of the four experiments, for simulation and for processing of cosmic-ray data. During the following six months each site will build up to the full throughput needed for LHC operation, which is twice the nominal data rate. • 24 hour operational coverage is required at all Tier-1 centres from January 2007 Service Challenge Phase 4: Piano di attività e impatto sulla infrastruttura di rete
Milestones in brief • Jan 2006: • throughput tests (rate targets not specified) • May 2006: • high-speed network infrastructure operational • By Sep 2006: • avg throughput of 1.6 GB/s from disk at CERN to tape at the Tier-1 sites (nominal rate for LHC operation, 200 MB/s for CNAF) • Oct 2006 – Mar 2007: • avg throughput up to twice the nominal rate Service Challenge Phase 4: Piano di attività e impatto sulla infrastruttura di rete
