Tier1 Reporting

LCG


Background

On 22nd February I sent a list of sites who were not publishing accounting to:-

MB GDB EGEE ROC Managers

I asked them to:-a) check the list for sites in your country or supported by your Tier1/ROC. I

think these should be obvious but if anyone has problems, let me know.

b) approach these sites and ask why they are not publishing and report the reason back to me. I will collate the replies. If you consider that they will not be contributing to LHC computing then that is a valid reason for the MB but they may be hearing from EGEE.

c) make them aware of the LCG policy agreed by the last MB that everyone should publish regular accounts for their LHC VOs by some method (as discussed during my MB Accounting talk)

d) if there are legal or security arguments why they cannot publish, please highlight this so that we can get a working group investigating the implications.

e) get an estimate from them of when they can start publishing.

Very few replies (none on policies or legal issues) ~72 sites not publishing in last 3 months cf ~150 who have

published at all

Actions from February MB

Countries to give feedback on legal issues with LCG-wide accounting (By April) Finland only

APEL to understand gLite implications (previous talk) Tier1s to help ‘their’ associated sites to deploy and

configure APEL. (More Green sites) or to use their own accounting system to publish to LCG

Repository Sites to check their APEL logs for errors

give feedback to increase reliability and robustness Sites to compare with other sources as reality check

eg if Ganglia shows 90% average utilisation over a month then APEL numbers should agree.

Work with OSG to push/pull their LCG accounting data (Previous talk)

Comments

We have observed that the list of sites not publishing has a few false positives.

Some non-publishing sites may be publishing under another name (mainly sorted)

Some flagged sites were not yet in production. No way of flagging old that should no longer be

publishing. Type=Closed proposed NIKHEF publish from their own database and are

seeing an R-GMA problem. (??)

Reporting to CRRB

The OB wants the CRRB to receive monthly figures for LHC use at Tier1 Centres

to start with We have sufficient CPU reporting in APEL for T1s

but only report Grid work How many T1s run significant non-Grid LHC work?

Not ready with tape and disk reporting yet So what do we do?

How about manual reporting? Example courtesy of Manuel Delfino

LCG


LCG


Which Numbers?

What numbers are to be input? CPU easy, use APEL or your local system

Normailise to SI2K kilohours as in APEL Disk and tape are not so easy

TBdays integrated over the month? months have different numbers of days

Average TB/day ? A snapshot on the 1st (or last) day of the month? all per LHC VO allocated or used space?

LCG


Can we do better?

A simple tool could take the manually produced disk and tape numbers and publish them to the central APEL respository

The change to automatic measurement and submission would then be controlled and easily phased in.
