ok you will need a config (.py file) and two scripts run.sh and submit.sh

my scripts are these

• cfg.py. cfg.py
• submit.sh here submit.sh
• run.sh here run.sh

Things to be careful with:

• in cfg.py
  • there are all the way at the top these lines (not sure what they do, or if you will need them for your job)

        import FWCore.ParameterSet.VarParsing as VarParsing
        ivars = VarParsing.VarParsing('standard')

        ivars.files = 'file:../predigi/predigi_test3_numEvent1.root'
        ivars.output = 'ZmumuMixed_reco02.root'

        ivars.maxEvents = -5
        #ivars.maxEvents = 3
        ivars.register ('randomNumber',mult=ivars.multiplicity.singleton,info="for testing")
        ivars.randomNumber=5
        ivars.parseArguments()

• • all the way to the bottom (again same warning, these are specific to my job)

        process.mixData.input.fileNames = process.source.fileNames
        process.RandomNumberGeneratorService.hiSignal.initialSeed = ivars.randomNumber
        process.RandomNumberGeneratorService.generator.initialSeed = ivars.randomNumber

• • the important thisngs to notice are these lines,
    • input = cms.untracked.int32(ivars.maxEvents)
    • fileName = cms.untracked.string(ivars.output) for output
    • fileNames = cms.untracked.vstring(ivars.files) for input

• in submit.sh look for these lines and adjust them properly
  • dataset=/pnfs/cmsaf.mit.edu/t2bat/cms/store/user/troxlo/mixing/MinBias0to100_Core_RECOBKG_test03
  • destination=/pnfs/cmsaf.mit.edu/t2bat/cms/store/user/jrobles/test/mix/MinBias_singleZmumu_offset10
  • +AccountingGroup = "group_cmshi.jrobles"
  • ransfer_input_files    = cfg.py make sure this is the config you are running

• in run.sh look also for these and adjust (since I am running in 394)
  • cd ~/CMSSW_3_9_4/src

before submitting make sure that the folder (in this case) /pnfs/cmsaf.mit.edu/t2bat/cms/store/user/jrobles/test/mix/ exists. Once you are fairly confident that all this black box is properly set up, submit a few jobs, let say 3, by doing

• ./submit.sh 1 3

and check the status of your jobs

• condor_q YourUserName

and to kill your jobs do

• condor_rm YourUserName

make sure that you are running on hibat0001, hibat0002, hibat0007 or hidsk0001, and NOT in the gateway machine, you won't be able to submit anything
