Metric
The Row and Column variables define the dimensions in which the data are grouped, for each view usually the data are grouped bidimensionally using a row variable and a column variable, the name derived from appearing in the rows and columns of the table, respectively. These are the valid values for both of these:

sumcpu | Sum CPU Time Hours | Hours of CPU Time as reported to APEL by the batch system. |
sumcpu_days | Sum CPU Time Days | Days of CPU Time as reported to APEL by the batch system. |
normcpu | Sum CPU Work HS06 Hours | (Same as "Normalized Sum CPU"). Sum of CPU Time Hours as reported to APEL by the batch system and multiplied
by benchmarked HEPSPEC06 power for a given resource. |
normcpu_days | Sum CPU Work HS06 Days | (Same as "Normalized Sum CPU"). Sum of CPU Time Days as reported to APEL by the batch system and multiplied by benchmarked HEPSPEC06. |
elap_processors | Sum Wallclock Time Hours | (Same as "Sum elapsed * Number of processors"). Wallclock time as reported by the batch system. For some sites represent raw wallclock time defined as end time stamp of a particular job minus start time stamp and multiplied by number of processors. There are other sites which do not report raw wallclock time, but rather report raw wallclock time scaled by a batch system to a reference node. For such sites this metric currently shows scaled wallclock multiplied by number of processors. |
elap_processors_days | Sum Wallclock Time Days | (Same as "Sum elapsed * Number of processors"). Wallclock time as reported by the batch system. For some sites represent raw wallclock time defined as end time stamp of a particular job minus start time stamp and multiplied by number of processors. There are other sites which do not report raw wallclock time, but rather report raw wallclock time scaled by a batch system to a reference node. For such sites this metric currently shows scaled wallclock multiplied by number of processors. |
normelap_processors | Sum Wallclock Work HS06 Hours | (Same as "Normalised Sum elapsed * Number of processors"). Wallclock time as reported by the batch system and multiplied by benchmarked HEPSPEC06 power of a given CPU resource and by number of processors. For some sites represent raw wallclock time defined as end time stamp of a particular job minus start time stamp and multiplied by number of processors. There are other sites which do not report raw wallclock time, but rather report raw wallclock time scaled by a batch system to a reference node. For such sites this metric currently shows scaled and Normalised Wallclock multiplied by Number of Processors |
normelap_processors_days | Sum Wallclock Work HS06 Days | (Same as "Normalised Sum elapsed * Number of processors"). Wallclock time as reported by the batch system and multiplied by benchmarked HEPSPEC06 power of a given CPU resource and by number of processors. For some sites represent raw wallclock time defined as end time stamp of a particular job minus start time stamp and multiplied by number of processors. There are other sites which do not report raw wallclock time, but rather report raw wallclock time scaled by a batch system to a reference node. For such sites this metric currently shows scaled and Normalised Wallclock multiplied by Number of Processors |
cpueff | CPU Efficiency | 100 * Sum CPU Time / Sum (Wallclock Time * Number of Processors). |
Metric Unit Suffix
For all metrics with a unit based on hours, there is an optional suffix to indicate a longer time unit, the basic format is
<metric>-<unit_suffix>
For example:
normcpu-month
If no suffix is indicated, hours are selected by default:
Suffix | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
hour | Hours | Select the default unit of hours, equivalent to not indicating any suffix. |
day | Days | Select a time of unit based on days (24 hours) |
month | Months | Select a time of unit based on months (720 hours) |
quarter | Quarters | Select a time of unit based on quarters (2160 hours) |
halfyear | Half Years | Select a time of unit based on half years (4320 hours) |
year | Years | Select a time of unit based on years (8640 hours) |
Row and Column Variables
The Row and Column varaibles define the dimensions in which the data is grouped, for each view usually the data is grouped bidimensionally using a row variable and a column variable, the name derived from appearing in the rows and columns of the table, respectively. These are the valid values for both of these:

Dates
The URL components for dates are:
/StartYear/StartMonth/EndYear/EndMonth/
The date format is:
/YYYY/MM/YYYY/MM/
The date indicated by StartYear/StartMonth needs to be BEFORE EndYear/EndMonth.
VO Group Selector
VO Group selects which VOs are selected for the current view, there are five settings:
VO Group Selector | Meaning |
---|---|
lhc | The four VOs used on the WLCG Large Hadron Collider (ATLAS, ALICE, LHCb, CMS). |
top10 | Top 10 VOs that in the period and options selected have the highest unnormalised raw CPU value. |
all | All VOs are included. |
egi | VOs officially registered on the EGI Operations Portal. |
custom | Custom set of virtual organisations. |
In the case of a “custom” selection, the used format is
custom-vo1,vo2,vo3,..,von
This scales to infrastructure views with 200+ VOs.
