Description

A solution for a highly I/O intensive production system for a FNAL Collider experiment (D0) is presented. The implemented system is based on a parallel processing of events on a collection of Unix processors and supports flexible allocation of resources between various production projects. The hardware architecture is supported by FNAL Farms group and utilizes a loosely coupled parallel array of workstations. The peak capacity of the system was around 1500 MIPS. The exact allocation of computing power was based on the amount of data recorder by the D0 detector. All reconstruction was done in a near real-time mode
