MoA for DT system

1. MoA for DT system Milano 10-6-08 amedeo.staiano@to.infn.it

2. DT consortium A formal step, the constitution of the DT consortium (4th april 2008): Memorandum of Agreement for the Maintenance and Operation of the CMS Detector between the CMS Collaboration and the Consortium of BARREL Muon Institutes With reference to the MoA document approved by the CMS Collaboration Board 58 of December 2007 (MoA 58/07 in the following), the following Institutes collaborating to the Muon Barrel project agree to constitute a Consortium for the provision of services towards the effective operation of the Barrel Drift Chambers, the Barrel Alignment and LINK Alignment systems. The duration of the commitment, the obligations toward CMS and the level of service provided by the Members of the Consortium will comply with the MoA 58/07. The Funding Agencies involved in the detector parts indicated above will be informed of the constitution of the Consortium. The Representatives of the Institutions are committed to ask the supporting Funding Agencies to make available the M&O B funds needed to fulfil its obligations following the agreed sharing. Each new Institution joining this Consortium will be asked to contribute an agreed fraction of manpower and M&O B funds . The Representatives of the Institutes participating in the Consortium will name a System Area Manager, whose responsibilities are established in the MoA 58/07. We agree on all the above Validity dates: from ______ to ________ Done in Geneva, Switzerland Done in _____________________________ on_______________________________ on__________________________________ For CMS _________________________________ _____________________________________ CMS Spokesperson Title _________________________________ CMS Resources Manager For the Consortium Aachen CIEMAT Santander CERN (?

4. Comments and Breakdown • DT overall signatures 85, italian M&O share 54%, italian signature share 46/85=54% • overall average service FTE needed (36) is low in absolute value wrt other components, but high in terms of signatures, 36/85=42% • only detector related activities included • Software/DQM breakdown (maintainence: code development + sw validation+ • detector database production:

5. Comments and Breakdown • Operation during shutdown (data taking with cosmics, tests, data analysis etc, ~30% of data taking; • CERN - Home Institute share breakdown. In the tables 19 shifters during data taking , 6.5 during shutdown. “Rule of thumb”: reduce 19 to 16 (4 instead of 5/ shift), and assume 50% of maintenance people does shifts, this brings to • experience from CRUZET can already help

6. Start from the field Experience from the global runs (CRUZET1) One shifter on charge in the CR One system expert on-call (day and night) Should be able to solve most problems that a shifter can find (and that are solvable) Specific system experts, called by the system expert on call if needed Result of CRUZET2 were good Satisfactory up-time Only 1 week of experience R. Carlin Muon workshop 9 Jun 2008

7. Shifters scheme Usual scheme, with one shifter in the CR, lasting one week 4 shifters/week (minimum) At least 16 experts if each takes one shift per month Need more to cover long periods But, expert shifters need to take shifts frequently to stay up-to-date Can add a second shifter to the expert For help, mostly at startup For training (from expert shifter to new shifter) R. Carlin Muon workshop 9 Jun 2008

8. Experts “on call” • System experts should have enough experience to help the shifter on the majority of the problems • Most times he is an expert/developer on a specific system • Will call the specialist (local or remote) if the problem is too difficult • System expert shift strategy? • One per week? • One per day, cycling between a pool? • How many do we need overall • How many at CERN at he same time? • Cannot be ONLY the present experts R. Carlin Muon workshop 9 Jun 2008

9. in parallel to this • 1 Offline DPG Shifts (1 person/shift) • 2 Online, Offline, CSA Calibration shifts (1 person/shift) • with this figures, taking into account the number of experts and shifters needed we come to a plot in good agrement with 18 people at CERN

10. Institutes Sharing • shifts: assume (6 months * 4.5 weeks/month* 7 days/week* 3 shifts/day) = 567, no problems for the italian institutes to cover shifts in proportion to signatures. • Bologna: 33 signatures, 8,25FTE.18 FTE from DT. Expect 18/85= 6FTE (the rest going in computing, offline and trigger)

11. Padova: ? signatures in 2008, ?FTE. 14 in DT, 3.5FTE. • 4 engeneers available for services, for a total of 0.2FTE, + 0.2FTE from technical service.

12. Torino: 35 signatures in 2008, 8.75FTE. 14 in DT, 3.5FTE (the rest in TRK, ECAL, Offline). • 0.5FTE engeneers available for services • Legnaro: no signatures in 2008, 3 engeneers and 2 technicians. Support on DAQ and T2 activities. 0.1FTE available for services on DAQ, 1FTE service for T2 (computing). • Conclusion: 4 more FTE still to be defined and distributed between institutes, difficult in the present status to find room for global responsabilities.

15. Expert on specific systems • How many subsystem specialists do we need permanently at CERN (during runs)? • Most HW is not accessible • Trigger • DAQ,DCS,RC,PCs • HV,LV • Minicrates • Debug/config may be complex • Normally handled by generic system experts • Software maintenance? • DQM • Gas/infrastrucutre R.
