  1. Monitoring: Tracking your tasks with Task Monitoring PAT eLearning – Module 11 Edward Karavakis On behalf of the Dashboard Team

  2. Introduction • You should be able to monitor your analysis tasks – without any hassle! • Task Monitoring collects and exposes a user-centric set of information to the user regarding submitted tasks. • Part of the Dashboard Framework: • http://dashboard.cern.ch • Uses the job monitoring information from the Dashboard database. • Available at: http://dashboard.cern.ch/cms Edward.Karavakis@cern.ch – Monitoring: Tracking your tasks with Task Monitoring

  3. Good reasons to use it • Focused on the user's perspective. • Easy to use and to navigate. • Intuitive in layout. • Fast with very low latency. • Updates in 'real time'. • Bookmark your favourite tasks. • Offers a wide selection of graphical plots. • User-driven development.

  4. Job Status Collection • We don't have your grid certificate – cannot directly query the Grid Logging and Bookkeeping System. • We rely on the job status sent to the Dashboard either from the jobs themselves from the CRAB UI via MonALISA or on the job status information on RGMA and ICRTM. • Provides monitoring functionalities regardless of the submission method or the middleware.

  5. Inconsistent results? • What happens if you see an inconsistency between Dashboard Task Monitoring and crab -status ? • As soon as the job is finished at the worker node it is reported to Dashboard as finished. CRAB reports a finished job only when it is considered DONE by the Grid and normally, a small delay is introduced by the Grid Services. • But, if you notice that some data is missing regarding your jobs, you should believe crab -status.

  6. Recent Development • Many UI improvements. • URLs to every task, user and particular views of a given task. • Consumed Time information: • Task-specific: Average Efficiency, total & average CPU and Wall Clock time usage, average CPU time per event. • Job-specific: Efficiency for a specific job. • Extended the selection of the plots. Edward.Karavakis@cern.ch – Monitoring: Tracking your tasks with Task Monitoring

  7. Graphical Plots • Various Plots available, including: • Distribution by Site (successful, failed, running and pending, processed events). • Terminated jobs (in terms of Success/ Failures and over time). • Application-failed and Grid-aborted jobs by Reason of Failure. • Timing plots: Average Efficiency distributed by Site, CPU & Wall Clock time spent on Successful and Failed jobs. Edward.Karavakis@cern.ch – Monitoring: Tracking your tasks with Task Monitoring

  8. Future Development • Fully configurable time interval. • Filters allowing you to search for detailed information about a specific task or job. • Automatic generation of commands for: resubmissions / killings / getting logging info, retrieving output, .. Edward.Karavakis@cern.ch – Monitoring: Tracking your tasks with Task Monitoring

  9. Required improvements • The weakest point is failure diagnostics for both Grid and Application failures. • It would be extremely useful to get not only the exit-code, which sometimes can be misleading, but a detailed reason of failure as well. i.e.: ‘Could not save output file A on the storage element B’. • Requires modifications of the CRAB Wrapper. • A user shouldn’t have to search the log files to understand what went wrong.

  10. Feedback • The Monitoring tool is available at: http://dashboard.cern.ch/cms • You can make it better! • Please send us your suggestions and feedback at: dashboard-support@cern.ch Edward.Karavakis@cern.ch – Monitoring: Tracking your tasks with Task Monitoring

  11. Demo • Short demonstration of the application. Edward.Karavakis@cern.ch – Monitoring: Tracking your tasks with Task Monitoring
