{% include "header.html"%}Victor is a fully automated, popularity-based site cleaning agent. On a daily basis, Victor scans the Tier2s for full group-site associations and tries to find unpopular, old blocks that can be deleted by the group or site administrators.
Victor focuses on the cleaning of T2 wan_stores with a granularity of physicsgroup-site association. Victor does not attempt to clean the local space.
A PhEDEX-Popularity API provides the group’s blocks on a site (with cdate, #file accesses, cpu time, size…). The blocks are sorted from oldest to newest and the following filters are applied:
No automatic actions are carried out for the moment. The decisions – blocks to clean for groups that exceed the pledge - are published on this web interface. The web interface provides a “shopping cart“ system where the group responsibles can select blocks in a copy&pastable way. Then the group responsibles will request the deletion of blocks to PheDEX themselves.
