The
SAM status codes with a brief description for the results of our tests are as follows:
- OK 10 – Site has passed all tests
- Info 20 – Not used
- Notice 30 – Not all tests ran, see below
- Warning 40 – Site queue length requirement is not satisfied
- Error 50 – There was a problem during execution of the tests
- Critical 60 – Critical problem found during execution
- Maintenance 100 – Eventually will be set by a SAM agent
The current list of tests we perform start with a check on the presence of a ‘lock file’ in the shared area. This allows
SAM tests to run at multiple CEs with only one being able to write into the shared area. If an existing
SAM lock file is detected the software installation test is disabled and the lock test is set to ‘Notice’.
