Running CMSIM Jobs


This page describes the steps involve in running cmsim jobs.

scripts/DeclareCMSIMJobs.sh -a assignment_id

This command creates a directory for data_set_name under cmsim directory. Then it creats a production directory under data set name directory. After this it creates the following directory structure under production directory

The command gets list of all ntpl files for the given data set from specified directory and creates these files in "declared" directory. If it fails to create a entry in "declared direcotry, it reports that error mesage. If you receive no error message, it means every thing is ok.

scripts/CreateCMSIMJobs.sh -v data_set_name

This command creats a batch directory under data set name. Then it creates the following directory structure under batch directory

This command creats entries in asociations, created and declared directories for each ntpl file. It also creates script from cmsim_template for each ntpl file and puts them into script directory. Then it creates job desription file for each entry and puts them in jdf directory.

scripts/RunJob.sh -v -j cmsim assignment_id

This command submits all jobs one by one to production farms that you have mension in command for a given data set. We can see entries of all jobs that have ben submitted successfully in batch/submitted directory. After the job have been completed successfully, it moves files entry to done directory. If somehow job does not run successfully, it moves files entry to problems directory.
