Phenogrid configuration information for site admins

Usage pattern

Compared to other VOs, pheno has a very small number of users at the moment. We expect to see long periods of no activity at all, with periodic bursts of several hundred jobs. Their running time can be anything up to several days, but they can be scheduled at low priority. Currently we estimate storage requirements to be in the tens of GB range.
