Meeting Notes for 25 February 2008

Action Items

• Phong will send out an email to find a good time to do a load test.

Workshops

• Bob is working on the workshop goals

Execution Controls

• TomL did execution control testing
• Grid execution estimates failed (but Teraport was down)
• Ready for prime-time?
  • Sometimes the estimates are off badly
  • Bob thinks they're useful
  • TomL wants a bit more time to test them.

Load Test - Delayed

• Use SWIFT-Local
• Need hard numbers
• Mihael needed?
• Do some before/after hard numbers
• We need to use files that have never been thresholded (very old, very recent).
  • At the moment, SWIFT always thresholds on analyses.
• Bob suggests that each person takes an aspect
  • Flux
  • Lifetime
  • Shower
  • Upload
• TomJ would be welcome for testing as well.

NSF Metrics

• Numbers
  • Files upload
  • Plots saved
  • Posters generated

Data Blessing

• TomJ and Bob are going to Seattle to discuss an automated blessing approach and get the criteria
• Let students decide blessed/not-blessed, but after some time period, do an automated blessing
• Possible "purgatory" for data
• A low-level basic blessing approach has been generated, a high-level detailed approach has been proposed

Workshops

• Users are not reading anything

Peer Review

• Candidate: Nate Unterman

TomL

• Dale and TomL have met and revised the rubrics and LOs
  • Also wrote some questions for the content LOs
  • Pre/post-test development in progress.
• Went through the CMS test-beam stuff

Mihael

• SSL fix is in TRUNK but Mihael does not want to deploy to production due to testing
• Thresholding has to be done all the time for SWIFT - blocker?
• He may be able to get in the upload issue in not too much time
