Pilot jobs?

Pilot jobs – and variants:

Such a good idea – everyone wants one …

Supporting pilot jobs

Greig CowanUsing DPM over the WAN

Addressing failover for core operations services – Alfredo Pagano

Various strategies

Platform LSF – Robert StoberIntegrating heterogeneous clusters

Observations Solutions exist for most needs now –

Certainly not all perfect yetExperiment layer relatively deep Plethora of workload management systemsNot so many for data management …

Service management issues starting to be addressed by some services (DPM, LFC, FTS, Gridsite, Coral)But in general little thought on how site managers

should manage services

Interoperability / interoperation

Observations Workload management

Everyone wants pilot (aka glidein) jobs (and everyone has written a system to submit them)

Commonality – to reach a reliable service experiments need to systematically debug sites being used: D0, CMS, dashboards, …

Sophisticated systems to monitor, debug, recover Dirac, dashboards, grid service monitoring, etc., To improve reliability and help debug the system
