MC Production - SP10 Run Ranges

Validation And Test Ranges

  • Use ProdTools V00-07-05 or later for SP10.
  • When validating a release, always validate all months for which validation runs are listed
  • If a release has validation runs for multiple views listed, always choose the latest view.
  • SP10/Runs 1-7 will use ROOT based CDB exclusively, not Objectivity CDB.
  • Download ROOT based CDB snapshots
  • Current snapshots :
    • cond24boot,
    • Data set Name = Nonevent-CDB-cond24boot-full
    Downloading the snapshot is similar to downloading background trigger events:
      BbkImport --dbsite=slac --dbname bbkr24 --noupdate-sql --dataset Nonevent-CDB-cond24boot-full \ --remote=0 --ftp-type=bbcp --nstreams 10 --window 1M --multiple 10 --reverse \ bbrdist@bbr-xfer01lfi.slac.stanford.edu {target directory}
  • To download Background Trigger Files
    • When new Background Trigger files are annouced in simuprod-hn, update with the BbkImprt command. BbkImprt will ignore already installed background triggers and only import new collections. This makes it safe to use even if production is ongoing.
      BbkImport --dbsite=slac --dbname bbkr24 --noupdate-sql --dataset BkgTriggers-R24 --remote=0 --ftp-type=bbcp --nstreams 10 --window 1M --multiple 10 --reverse bbrdist@bbr-xferlfi.slac.stanford.edu
      If you have problem connecting to SLAC database, try refreshing with 'BbkTestConnect -k --dbsite slac'
  • To compare your validation runs to SLAC
    • copy them to $BFROOT/prod/log/validation/<arch>/<site>
    • (Space is limited, so please delete old files first!)
    • cd $BFROOT/prod/log/validation
    • validate.csh <arch> <first run> <last run> slac 01 <site> <version>
    • arch is the cpu architecture: amd or intel. A separate run range will be specified for amd and intel. SLAC will be able to provide a reference set of runs for both architectures.
