Mass production of ntuples on data and (min bias) MC

Datasets

• Note:
  • dbs is available after cmsenv
  • More details on datasets and skims and versions can be obtained from Collisions2010Analysis

     dbs search --query='find dataset where run=132440'

List of files and events for each dataset

• Note:
  • You MUST do this on t3ui01, because dbs on t3ui02 does NOT know about still open blocks...

     dbs search --query='find file,file.numevents where dataset=/MinimumBias/Commissioning10-Apr1Skim_GOODCOLL-v1/RAW-RECO and run<=132513 and site=t3se01.psi.ch and file.numevents>9' > file1
     dbs search --query='find file,file.numevents where dataset=/MinimumBias/Commissioning10-GOODCOLL-v8/RAW-RECO and run>132513 and site=t3se01.psi.ch and file.numevents>9' > file2

Create py files for n events, split into runs

• Note:
  • mkPyFiles is in Bs2MuMu/perl

     mkPyFiles -f file1 -t dana-XXXX.py -r -e 200000 -s v06
     mkPyFiles -f file2 -t dana-XXXX.py -r -e 200000 -s v06

Create a tar file

• Note:
  • mkTarFile is in Bs2MuMu/perl
  • mkTarFile by default only includes the required ADF/HFO and HFA/Bs2MuMu packages. Additional packages can be added with -i if required.

         cd .../CMSSW_3_X_Y/src
         mkTarFile grid-100426.tar.gz
         mkTarFile -i RecoVertex/KinematicFitPrimitives grid-100426.tar.gz
    

Run the jobs

• Note:
  • run is in Bs2MuMu/perl
  • Of course, the relative paths need to be adapted to where you are running the production
  • Make sure that the directory referred to by STORAGE1 exists.
  • You can use (at your own risk) the perl skripts monSge (and monGrid) to monitor the progress of the jobs

     run -t ../../../../../../grid-100426.tar.gz -m batch -c ../../../test-local/ana.csh -r 'STORAGE1 srm://t3se01.psi.ch:8443/srm/managerv2\?SFN=/pnfs/psi.ch/cms/trivcat/store/user/ursl/root/dana/v06-data' dana-v06-1*.py
