  1. Valencia Testbed Site:IFIC (Instituto de Física Corpuscular) CSIC-ValenciaICMoL (Instituto de Ciencia Molecular) UV-Valencia28/08/2002

  2. Motivation and Objectives • Motivation the involvement in Grid Testbeds • Participation in LHC experiments (HEP): • ATLAS • Participation in Air Pollution Modelling • Objectives: • Initial development and exploitation of a Grid infrastructure in Valencia. • Physics and Chemistry analysis preparation for Grid computing. • Provide support and infrastructure for: • Development of Grid applications; • Test and validation of Grid applications.

  3. GRID Projects • DATAGRID (from European Union) • CROSSGRID (from European Union) • SPECIAL ACTION (Spanish Ministry of Science and Technology) • Three-Years Project (Spanish Ministry of Science and Technology)

  4. Current Grid Activities • Evaluation of the DATAGRID middleware • Implementation of the Valencia testbed site: • Maintenance of a Globus meta-directory: • Institutional MDS of Valencia “dc=ific, dc=es, o=Grid” • Integration of Valencia into the DATAGRID testbed: • Globus gatekeeper; • Globus Condor and PBS job-manager; • GSI authentication through the Spanish (in IFCA) CA • Etc,... • Participation in DATAGRID testbeds 0 and 1

  5. Current Grid Activities • We are participating in this year in the DATA CHALLENGE 1 (DC1) of ATLAS experiment with two goals: • Event productions in our farm in order to provide samples for physics studies and make the Technical Design Report for the end of 2002. • To test in our farm the new software, including Geant4, the new event data model and the evaluation of two database technologies, Objectivity and Root-I/O. • 400k events have been simulated in DC1 phase 1 (non EDG used, but foreseen for phase 2 ) • Total CPU time: 21 Khours • Total disk space: 1.1 TBytes

  6. Networking in Spain • ISP: RedIris (Spanish Academic Research Network) • Geant connectivity at 2.5 Gbits/s. • US connectivity at 180 Mbits/s.

  7. Valencia Networking • Gigabit Ethernet Backbone in local area network. • Fibre optic link with University BackBone using Gigabit Ethernet • Fibre optic link of 155 Mbits/s with IP over ATM from the University to RedIris (Shared among other Universities and research centers of the “Comunitat Valenciana”)

  8. Production Farm • Infrastructure for Grid activities from CSIC-Universitat de València: • Grupo de Ordenadores para el GRID (GoG) • 192 CPU’s • Chassis: 2U (Rack Mountable) • CPU: AMD K7 Athlon @1.2GHz • Memory: 1 Gbytes, PC133 • HD: 40 Gbytes, ATA 100 @7200 rpm • NIC: 100 Mbps full duplex.PXE 2.1, WOL

  9. Production Farm • 9 Racks 19” • 9 switches ( • 2 switches (Gigabit Ethernet 12 ports) • Running Linux RH 6.2 (considering RH 7.2) • Job scheduling by CONDOR (looking at PBS) Catalyst 3524 XL fast Ethernet with Gigabit Ethernet uplink)

  16. Human Resources • IFIC and ICMoL have: • 2 Engineers; • 2 Physicists; • 2 Chemists; • 2 Post-doc; • Two new positions for the IFIC and ICMoL are being created (Using CrossGrid contract). • IFIC and ICMoL Computer and Technical personnel.

  17. Human Resources • CROSSGRID involvement: • Dr. José Salt Cairols (Main Contact) • Dr. Eduardo Ros Martínez • Dr. Santiago González de la Hoz • Mr. Fco. Javier Sánchez Martínez • Dr. Raúl Crespo Crespo • Dr. Roberto Tejero Toquero • Mr. Martín Córdoba • Dr. Mª Carmen Piqueras

  18. Valencia and CROSSGRID • Valencia is involved in the following tasks: • task 1.3 Distributed Data Analysis in HEP • task 1.4 Weather Forecast and Air Pollution Modelling • task 3.2 Grid Resource Management • task 3.5 (Valencia task leader) Integration, Testing and Refinement • task 4.1 Testbed Setup and Incremental Evolution • task 4.3 (Valencia task leader) Infrastructure Support

  19. Videoconference support • VRVS and ISDN support. • List of equipment: • Polyspan ViewStation SP video conference • Document camera • 2 video projectors (Proxima Ultralight LX2 and Hitachi CP-X960W/E) • Several webcams in Desktop PC’s
