VO Liaison CMS 1mSpeaker: Katy Ellis (Science and Technology Facilities Council STFC (GB))
SAM tests have looked perfectly green for most of this week!
However, since Friday (the problem with the batch farm running at half capacity was fixed on Monday) the CMS job efficiency has plummeted. Slight improvement today, but a bit disappointing after our excellent performance in the previous week. Going to create a ticket.

VO Liaison LHCb 1mSpeaker: Raja Nandakumar (Science and Technology Facilities Council STFC (GB))
LHCb :
- Problems with singularity namespace on the batch system
- GGUS ticket https://ggus.eu/?mode=ticket_info&ticket_id=147098
- Possibly caused by ATLAS update (GGUS ticket : 146651)
- Affects MC simulation for RUNI data
- Currently half the MC simulation productions are halted waiting for this
- MC is bulk of the running jobs at RAL
- Current number of running jobs at RAL ~3K
- Normally expect close to 8K
- Possibly related to above issue.
- ECHO streaming issue
- Change to buffer and seg sizes (segsize and maxbsz) has had no effect.
- Next: testing out XRD_STREAMTIMEOUT (environment variable set within the job)
DUNE:
- Idle over the weekend - possibly the batch farm issue.
- Running jobs again
- Request made for history of ETF tests
- Separate division (Monit) to provide this
- Ticket opened. Not clear about timescale as yet
- Problems with singularity namespace on the batch system
