Accounting Working Meeting

Europe/Berlin
    • 10:00 11:00
      Round Table 1h
      Speakers: Manuel Giffels (Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT)), Matthias Schnepf (CMS (CMS-Experiment)), Dr Max Fischer (KIT SCC), Michael Boehler, Dr Oliver Freyermuth (University of Bonn (DE)), Ralf Florian von Cube (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT))

      KIT:

      • AUDITOR instance at KIT upgraded to version v0.0.7
        • contains meta structure
        • adjusted HTCondor collector accordingly
          • collects data successfully
          • creates APEL report - output needs to be validated - but seems to be ok
      • KIT added HEPScore values to several workernodes -> HEPSpec and HEPScore can be collected simultaneously 
      • HTCondor plugin will be added to the plugin dir in the AUDITOR repo on github
      • harvester IDs should be added to AUDITOR, for AUDITOR <-> panda validation checks
      • rough schedule: ready until next meeting 

      FR:

      • APEL-plugin
        • adjusted to meta structure
        • todo: report both HEPSpec and HEPScore
          • setup APEL client as linux service
          • enlarge coverage of automatic tests 
          • provide documentation
      • slurm collector
        • collect info stored as pseudo json in slurm comment field
      • AUDITOR core components:
        • provided RUST and PYTHON blocking clients
          • will be released in version v0.0.8
        • python client can add runtime to record for testing purposes

      WUP:

      • auditor vs panda validation:
        • job in auditor longer, since they represent the pilots and not the payload (as expected)
        • long running jobs discrepancy < 1%
        • panda requests per harvester id > factor 50 faster, than by batch system ID -> request to add harvester ID into AUDITOR db

      BONN:

      • benchmarks worker nodes with HEPScore
        • currently benchmarks for full node usage works fine for nodes with ncores < 100

      AOB:

      • KIT was asked to patch APEL client (no manpower at APEL team)
      • would be most beneficial for AUDITOR project to have a pre-production version out a.s.a.p
      • next Meeting 17th April
