grid-control-submission

Submission via grid-control on bwUniCluster and store on Gridka

Installation of necessary software

1. Log into ekpcms6 and make sure that you are using the bash (e.g. zsh does not work)
2. Install grid-control in a folder, e.g. /usr/users via

svn co https://ekptrac.physik.uni-karlsruhe.de/svn/grid-control/trunk/grid-control

3. Source the proper grid environment

source /cvmfs/grid.cern.ch/emi3ui-latest/etc/profile.d/setup-ui-example.sh

4. Create a dcms voms proxy and manually export the path to the proxy. During the creation of the proxy its path will be shown

voms-proxy-init --voms cms:/cms/dcms --valid 192:00
export X509_USER_PROXY=/tmp/x509up_u12117

5. Export path to grid-config

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/users/harrendorf/grid-control:/usr/users/harrendorf/grid-control/scripts

6. Clone this repository

git clone git@github.com:mharrend/grid-control-submission.git

7. Modify one of the conf scripts of this repository according to your needs

Invocation of grid-config

1. Do not forget to do the following steps beforehand

source /cvmfs/grid.cern.ch/emi3ui-latest/etc/profile.d/setup-ui-example.sh

voms-proxy-init --voms cms:/cms/dcms --valid 192:00
export X509_USER_PROXY=/tmp/x509up_u12117

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/users/harrendorf/grid-control:/usr/users/harrendorf/grid-control/scripts

2. Invoke grid-control using a prepared config script

go.py script.conf

3. Check Gui output

Example grid-control config files

Config-CMSSWJobs-Freiburg-GridkaStore.conf

• Own CMSSW installation will be used together with a CMSSW config
• Jobs will be run at bwUniCluster in Freiburg
• Jobs will be stored at Gridka NRG storage (needs dcms proxy)

Config-CMSSWJobs-Freiburg-localStore.conf

• Own CMSSW installation will be used together with a CMSSW config
• Jobs will be run at bwUniCluster in Freiburg
• Jobs will be stored locally at EKCMS6 storage

Config-CMSSWJobs-EKPCMS6-localStore.conf

• Own CMSSW installation will be used together with a CMSSW config
• Jobs will be run locally at EKP-Cluster
• Jobs will be stored locally locally at EKCMS6 storage

Config-CMSSWJobs-NAF-localStore.conf

• Own CMSSW installation will be used together with a CMSSW config
• Jobs will be run locally at NAF
• Jobs will be stored locally at /nfs/dust/cms/user/

Automatic generation of grid-control config files

1. Edit the automaticJobCreation_draft.conf file according to your needs, while keeping the #DATASETNAME# and #SAMPLENAME# part.
2. Invoke the automaticJobCreation.sh giving two parameters
3. Full name of dataset, e.g. /ttHTobb_M125_TuneCUETP8M2_ttHtranche3_13TeV-powheg-pythia8/RunIISpring16MiniAODv2-premix_withHLT_80X_mcRun2_asymptotic_v14-v1/MINIAODSIM
4. Short name of sample, e.g. ttHTobb_M125_TuneCUETP8M2_ttHtranche3_13TeV-powheg-pythia8"

./automaticJobCreation.sh /ttHTobb_M125_TuneCUETP8M2_ttHtranche3_13TeV-powheg-pythia8/RunIISpring16MiniAODv2-premix_withHLT_80X_mcRun2_asymptotic_v14-v1/MINIAODSIM ttHTobb_M125_TuneCUETP8M2_ttHtranche3_13TeV-powheg-pythia8

1. Check the generated config file which has the sample name as a basename.conf
2. Run config with grid-control via

go.py [config file]
