Description
The most significant data challenge for CMS in 2005 has been the LCG service
challenge 3 (SC3). For CMS the main purpose of the challenge was to exercise a
realistic LHC startup scenario using complete experiment system, in what concerns
transferring and serving data, submitting jobs and collecting their data, employing
the next-generation world-wide LHC computing service.
A number of significant new components were submitted to the test by LCG. Compared to
the past data challenges a number of important parameters have been changed for CMS,
and a number of improvements to software and systems we tested. We describe our
benchmark goals and how the tests were performed. We report on the results achieved,
consequences, and conclusions drawn.
