Let's see if it goes right now that ATLAS have resumed normal service.

It is the amount of HS06 that I consider important, not where that HS06 is concentrated. Providing the same HS06 on different nodes would not get more work through. We are obliged by the PMB to dedicate a significant amount of HS06 as a VAC scale test. I have no say in it; Dave Colling and Andrew McNab made the request and that's that, I'm afraid. So, I'll try to find out from Andrew why so few ATLAS jobs come through VAC. Cheers, Ste
