7 January 2019 Dune uk-pp meeting

 

Agenda

 

Production has been stalled waiting for new executable with 2-d unfolding

 

7.5ms data was taken, has huge memory footprint, quite hard to reconstruct

 

Upcoming issues—collaboration meeting @ CERN

 

We have a slot open on Saturday Feb 2 after the meeting

 

Heidi and Kirby went to BNL on Thursday and Friday

 

Large amount of expertise but will need DOE to devote ops money to DUNE 

 

Need to contact other funding agents

 

Joint session—computing / FD / calibration at calibration on Wednesday

Networking, data quality, event display, data flow, databases

 

This meeting may morph into a general onboarding meeting 

 

Analysis workshop the day before the collaboration meeting.

 

 

First goal get the UK  people to be able to use the UK resources

 

————

 

RAL status—Raja said it should be ready but the try on 1/3/2019 was unsuccessful 

Waiting for feedback on that.

 

Normally job failures are overall across many sites.

 

Re-reco

Reconstruction of larger 7.5ms events

Takes too much ram

Have to query the framework developers to see if we are using the framework right (came out of the BNL discussions)

 

 

Evaluation activites—

Andrew M.

Have to evaluate how to interact with replica catalogs, etc.

Also bringing the  people into dune computing
