These are the quick-start instructions for a combined grid production effort.
Set up environment
- log on to the NAF
- set up athena (version will change in the future) and panda:
asetup 16.0.3.8.2,TopPhys --testarea="/afs/naf.desy.de/user/c/clange/atlas/production/16.0.3.8.2" export PATHENA_GRID_SETUP_SH=/afs/cern.ch/project/gd/LCG-share/current/etc/profile.d/grid_env.sh source /afs/cern.ch/atlas/offline/external/GRID/DA/panda-client/latest/etc/panda/panda_setup.sh cd $TestArea/PhysicsAnalysis/TopPhys/SingleTopDPDMaker/share
check your submission settings
We somehow have to make sure that people don't change the configuration files while other people are submitting. A good idea would be to have Athena Auto-Configuration do all the settings automatically. This already works except for the Data=True/False switch (this should technically also be possible in the near future). Until then:
- make sure you set Data=True/False correctly in runSingleTopDPDMaker.py
The rest works out of the box.
submit jobs
To execute job submission issue:
./SingleTopDPDSubmission Submission_jobOption.py
It might be a good idea to do all steps from the top in a screen, because job submission can take a while. Make sure that all jobs are submitted correctly. You need to enter your grid proxy passphrase for the submission.
job monitoring
You can monitor your jobs via the panda webinterface
To re-submit jobs use pbook
More information on Panda can be found at https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/viewauth/Atlas/DAonPanda
copying of datasets to DESY-ZN_LOCALGROUPDISK
The replication of the datasets is automatically requested by the pathena job. In order to see the progress of replication, have a look at this webpage: http://panda.cern.ch/server/pandamon/query?mode=ddm_pathenareq&action=List
You must freeze your datasets once the job is successfully finished in this way:
for i in `dq2-ls user.clange.STop1561291.*.20101117*`; do dq2-freeze-dataset $i; done;
You can ignore errors about dataset owners and forbidden characters like:
Error: [USER][FATAL] User /C=DE/O=GermanGrid/OU=DESY/CN=Valentina Ferrara is not the owner of dataset user.vferrara.STop1561291.mc09_7TeV.105861.TTbar_PowHeg_Pythia.merge.AOD.e521_s765_s767_r1302_r1306.20101117.101118144919_sub012560707 Error: [USER][OTHER] / character isn't allowed in this parameter [user.vferrara.STop1561291.mc09_7TeV.105861.TTbar_PowHeg_Pythia.merge.AOD.e521_s765_s767_r1302_r1306.20101117/]!
