News - Dima

• Not much to say
• How can we use resources for disk space and transfer to get things done. We are running at 1/2 resources
• Monster request - 2 wks of all cpu
• we have digi-reco coming, but output
• looks like samples 400M events in requests

3 top issues effecting production

• couple "bad" T2's seem to be the cause of most of our task chain and miniaod issues Estonia, EURJ, NCP, Ioannioa Working with Gaston to track down issues
  • esp bad for miniaods when the data is transferred to only an unreliable site for running and then we can't get anything to merge, any reason we don't limit list to "good" sites if they require input and run only at 1-2 sites?
• white list issues
