Q411 Metrics

Overall delivering more CPU (185%) and Disk (236%) than the MoU. Slight increase compared to earlier in the year, but major changes will come with the GridPp4 h/w tranche purchases

Availability/reliability dropped at most sites; Why?

CPU utilisation remains acceptable.

Future Resources

• New MoU’s show lack of Storage space at Birmingham, and Jet, with a problem at Bristol in 2014

• Shortage of CPU at Birmingham by 2014.

• This all assumes current levels of resources at sites. Old storage and CPU will come out of warrantee and be retired so new purchases need to maintain enough resource to cover the MoU commitments

Sussex

• Suspended or Candidate sites•  • Later this week, sites in suspended or Candidate

state for longer than 6 months will be closed - COD has collected a list of exceptions from NGIs. This does not affect any GridPP site, except maybe Sussex. I note that as per https://ggus.eu/ws/ticket_info.php?ticket=78177, Sussex is set as 'Uncertified', (my memory says it used to be 'Candidate', although I can't recall what the difference between the two is right now).

Conclusions

• SouthGrid sites utilisation level except maybe RALPP?• JET will be setup for ATLAS production new h/w will help.• RALPPD still our lead site.• Sussex, Warwick and Swansea had DRI money, what will this

lead to?• Main goal at the moment is to spend the two grants asap.
