Subject: Re: UK Tier 1 and Tier 2 computing requests for 2007 *****

Hi Glenn,

This request extends beyond the end of HERA running at the end of 
June so becomes interesting.

Up until then a CPU request of 65 kSI2Kmonths/month on both T1 and T2 
would be sensible (though our usage of the T1 has been more 
intermittent of late).

Beyond then who knows.

The interest from the experiment will still be there, but the UK 
involvement is very uncertain.  I have left the request at 65 
kSI2Kmonths/month in the absence of any more sensible number but note 
that my current understanding is that the UK involvement in H1 would 
no longer justify this.  It would also be true that traditional usage 
on the T1 would cease.

Regarding tape we just have our legacy data still there, so running 
on at 25TB indefinitely.

On disk our residual NFS requirement (few hundred GB) will finish 
with the end of HERA running.  We would have an ongoing requirement 
for 'paging' space on the T1 and T2 but nothing significant.

Kind regards,

				     Dave
