How to convert AlpGen Ntpl into EDM files

• First step : creating Workflows (WF)
  • First login as cmsprod2 on master3.iihe.ac.be.
  • cd in /beo5/cmsprod2/test and run "WorkFlowCreator.sh". It takes as an argument the name of the WF you want to create.

Warning : the convention for the name of the WF is related to the directory where it is stored.
E.g. : directory path = /castor/cern.ch/cms/generation/alpgen205-prod06//zjets/z6j => the name of the WF will be "alpgen205-prod06-zjets-z6j"

• Second step : submitting jobs with ProdAgent (PA)
  • Normaly after the first step, you should have a directory with the name of your WF and your WF in it. If not, restart to step 1!
  • Try to submit jobs with PA :

  python $PRODAGENT_ROOT/test/python/IntTests/InjectTestLCG.py --workflow=/beo5/cmsprod2/test/test2-alpgen205-prod06-WZjets-WZ3j/test2-alpgen205-prod06-zjets-z6j-Workflow.xml --nevts=10000000 --njobs=2 --site-pref=castorsrm.cern.ch --run=40000000

• • Always start with this run number 40000000
  • Very high number of events so all included events are added
