1. INFN-T1 site report Giuseppe Misurelli On behalf of INFN-T1 staff HEPiX Spring 2015

2. Outline Common services Network Farming Storage 23/03/2014Giuseppe Misurelli

3. Common services

4. Installation and configuration CNAF evaluation of new installation and configuration tools is complete. Decision taken to move towards puppet + foreman Quattor is still managing the bigger part of the infrastructure – No upgrades lately 23/03/2014Giuseppe Misurelli

5. Network

6. WAN@CNAF S.Zani6 NEXUSCisco7600 RAL SARA PIC TRIUMPH BNL FNAL TW-ASGC NDGF LHC ONE LHC OPN General IP 40Gb/s 10Gb/s 10 Gb/s CNAF-FNAL CDF (Data Preservation) 40 Gb Physical Link (4x10Gb) Shared by LHCOPN and LHCONE. 10Gb/s 10 Gb/s For General IP Connectivity General IP  20 Gb/s GARR Bo1 GARR Mi1 GARR BO1 IN2P3 Main Tier-2s

7. CNAF WAN Links 4x10 Gb/s LHCOPN+LHCONE (Evolving to 6x10Gb/s) – One link aggregation of 40Gb/s is used for T0-T1(LHCOPN) and T1-T2 (LHCONE) 20Gb/s to CERN are dedicated for T0-T1 and T1-T1 traffic (LHCOPN) CNAF, KIT and IN2P3 last year moved traffic between their TIER1s from LHCOPN to LHCONE (More bandwidth available through GEANT) 10 Gb/s General Purpose (Evolving to 2x10Gb) – General Internet Access for CNAF users – LHC sites not connected to LHCOPN/ONE (T3 and minor T2) – Backup link in case of LHCOPN down – INFN IT National Services 10 Gb/s (5 guaranteed) CNAF-FNAL (LTDP) – Data Transfer terminated (Decommissioning) 23/03/2014Giuseppe Misurelli

8. Farming

9. Computing resources 160K HS-06 Very stable during last period, just a few hardware failures Had to update IPMI firmware to get a signed java console applet. Latest java update does not allow for unsigned applets Renewed LSF contract for whole INFN with Platform/IBM for next 4 years 23/03/2014Giuseppe Misurelli

10. Security Since our last workshop we had to reboot the whole farm twice (2 critical kernel upgrades + glibc) – We use an automatic procedure – this process is slow (have to wait for a WN to completely drain) and causes the farm to provide less computing power 23/03/2014Giuseppe Misurelli

11. CPU tender 2014 tender still not installed (30K HS-06) – Same machine of previous tender – Will be installed shortly – 2014 pledged resources still guaranteed 2015 tender focused on blade solutions (HP, Lenovo, Dell) – Should be a quick procedure, machines available during summer We will be able to dismiss very old computing nodes and hopefully improve our PUE 23/03/2014Giuseppe Misurelli

12. Multicore support Activity carried on within the multicore-tf@CERN INFN-T1 now fully supports MCORE and HIMEM jobs Dynamic partitioning activated on August the 1° Enabled on a subset of farm racks (up to ~45 KHS06, 24 and 16 slots) Production quality, tunable; used by atlas and cms Accounting data properly delivered to Apel 3 python scripts and 2 C programs: - advanced conf LSF and dynamic partitioning logic - details: http://goo.gl/1Hpbt1http://goo.gl/1Hpbt1 23/03/2014Giuseppe Misurelli

13. Testing low power solutions HP Moonshot with m350 cards and external storage – HP probed our WNs in order to determine the best storage solution – Providing us a dl380 as an iSCSI server – M300 cards with internal storage are too expensive according to HP Supermicro microblade – Each blade carries 4 motherboards and 4 discs, less compact but with built-in storage 23/03/2014Giuseppe Misurelli

14. Storage

15. On-Line Storage 23/03/2014Giuseppe Misurelli GPFS (v3.5.0-22) – 15 PB of data in 15 file systems  Each major experiment has its own cluster  All worker nodes in a single “diskless” cluster  Worker nodes accessing file systems via remote mount  Observed I/O rate up to 15 Gb/s  4.5 MB/s for each TB  2015 tender  5PB disk replacement  3PB new disk

16. Near-Line Storage GEMSS: HSM based on TSM (v6.2) and GPFS  19 PB of data on tapes  tape drives of 3 generations: 10kB (1 TB) 15 drives 7200 tapes 10kC (5.5 TB) 13 drives 1400 tapes 10kD (8.5 TB) 9 drives 1500 tapes  12 Tape servers  SAN interconnection to Storage  I/O rate up to 350 MB/s per server  ~300 tape mounts per day

17. DSH: re-pack activities Data repack (10kB-> 10kD) campaign has started at the end of November 2014 3 PB of data has been migrated so far mean migration rate 330MB/s, limited by FC HBA of TSM server New TSM server (with FC16 HBA) in installation phase Plan to remove all 10kB tapes by autumn

18. Backup slides 23/03/2014Giuseppe Misurelli

19. Data Storage and Handling (DSH) ON-line (disk) storage systems Near-line (tape) storage system Data transfer services  StoRM  GridFTP  Xrootd  WebDav Long Time Data Preservation
