Description
Fermilab has decided to replace Enstore, its locally developed tape management system, with CTA. Fermilab runs two Enstore instances: CMS with a small, dedicated tape buffer and Public operating like an HSM with tight integration between dCache and Enstore
This talk will cover:
- Metadata migration from Enstore to CTA
- Results of dCache integration with CTA at FNAL
- Performance testing and monitoring
- Thoughts on integrating Enstore's "small file aggregation" (SFA) feature (Public instance only)
- Timeframe for migrations
Reading of physical Enstore tapes is discussed in Jorge's OSM talk
