CCRC 08 Weekly Update for the MB of 30 Oct 2007 Replies on data rates for the February run have now been received from all except ATLAS. F.Donno has circulated the experiments the questions of how much if any of the February data is to be kept and if the temporary and permanent storage from the run can be taken out of the existing experiment resource planning or needs to be added to them. So far we know that CMS and ALICE will keep the detector parts of the February runs and LHCb will keep none but need extra resources during the run. The fractions to be kept are not yet known. Alice (L.Betev) queried sites on how to separate real data from mock data while still using the same SRM endpoint. This still needs to be checked. At the Tier-0 MCS proposed different directories with different 'file classes' should be used. A.Aimar will send an updated version of the milestone plan. Reactions should happen this week and be reviewed at the pre-GDB Face2Face meeting. Experiments are asked to provide a list of critical services following the CMS model - see twiki: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/SWIntCMSServices Next week will be the pre-GDB Face-to-Face from 13.00 to 16.00 on 6 November in the IT Auditorium. See the agenda at http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=22709 This meeting should finalise the important details of the February run.
