Regrets


Agenda:

  1. Passing Qgraph UUIDs to IDDS, without using pseudo-file-name
  2. DF environment variable conventions
  3. Testing jobs are DFs
  4. Panda service deployment at SLAC
  5. AOB

Notes:

  1. Passing Qgraph UUIDs: Michelle is close to have some thing for test, Zhaoyu will follow up
  2. DF environment conventions: Suggestions:
    1. Add LSST_ prefix for Rubin specific variables
    2. Grid environment (CA/CRL/VOMS and voms-proxy-* binary) setup are site specific. USDF uses OSG in cvmfs. 
    3. Wen will test ${LSST_RUN_TEMP_SPACE}/{date}/operator/test_usdf/qgraph (moving "date" ahead of "operator") to help identifying obsoleted files/directory in this temporary space.

    4. We forgot to discuss the butler alias name for this ci_hsc_test.
    5. Tim suggested that once we create a ci_hsc_test bulter with raw (input) data injected, make a snapshot. Then in future repeated tests, we can just blow away data files and bulter Db and restore from this DB snapshot
  3. No major issues in testing panda jobs are DFs, only long turn around time.
  4. For Panda installation at SLAC, Eddy will discussion with Yee about DB setup in k8s. Wen is doing Panda system scale up test and deploy a newer version of iDDS, and testing jobs at USDF. Need to verify if there are network/firewall related issues.
