Hello,
as many of you know, LHCb do install and verify application software
through the SAM suite; we run it per daily basis
(less than 15 minutes per day, really peanuts) and we really would like
these jobs to have the absolute precedence with respect of the other
normal LHCb activities, without competing with them.
Unfortunately we are still experiencing (in some cases) long delay in
getting resources. We know that by simply dedicating few slots or a
very small share to lhcbsgm users - we should be able to suddenly get the
SAM suite running everywhere (somehow like ops team).
Would it be possible for each site admins to check whether lhcbsgm
group has some privileged treatment on his site? In case there isn't, how
difficult would be to set a dedicated share for lhcb software manager
jobs locally?
I also like to remind that LHCb do run other activities (namely scheduled
large productions and analysis) with *prd or normal lhcb Roles/groups.
R.
