SAM CMS Production test

Maintainer: Jose' Hernandez

Overview

Checks

• that the CMS software directory ($VO_CMS_SW_DIR for EGEE and $OSG_APP/cmssoft/cms for OSG) is defined, existing and readable
• that the CMS software initialisation script (cmsset_default.sh) exists and can be sourced without errors
• that the directory containing the MC test code can be accessed
• that the stage out succeeds
• that the cleanup of the test file succeeds

Stage out logic

• Test the site configuration
  • test that CMS_PATH exists in the environment
  • test that can load the site local configuration
  • test that a local stage out command is defined
  • test that a local stage out SE name is defined
  • test that a local stage out catalog is defined
• Test the Trivial File Catalog
  • test that can load the TFC
  • test that can translate /store/unmerged/SAM/StageOutTest-pid-date into a PFN
• Test the local stage out
  • test that a stage out implementation can be retrieved
  • test that the stage out can be performed normally
  • otherwise, test that the stage out can be performed with at least one of the fallbacks
• Test that the test file can be cleaned up from the SE
  • test that a stage out implementation can be retrieved
  • test that the file removal succeeds

Source code

• test wrapper: https://gitlab.cern.ch/etf/cmssam/blob/master/SiteTests/MonteCarlo/tests/CE-cms-mc
• test code: https://gitlab.cern.ch/etf/cmssam/blob/master/SiteTests/MonteCarlo/cms-MC-test/RuntimeSAMStageOut.py

Troubleshooting

• Check history and/or wait for next iteration, just in case it is a glitch in the system
• Type of failures:
  • If there is a failure in any of the standard tests), this should be consider as a real problem
  • Permission denied to write on site Storage Element: several sites do not allow to write anything as VOMS role=lcgadmin, and therefore the test fails. This is more a "feature" of the system, which must be addressed anyway, rather than a real problem in the site
• Contact experts (and site administrators of the particular site?)
