Pattuples production from 2010 data
The exercise produces tuples created following the Physics Analysis Toolkit (pattuples) from the 2010 AOD data.
You need to work in a VM properly contextualized for CMS.
In order to run the PAT_data_repo.py to generate the pattuples you need to create a working area and source a proper CMS environment.
Creating the Working Area
This step is only needed the first time.
cmsrel CMSSW_4_2_8
cd CMSSW_4_2_8/src
Sourcing the environment
This step is needed each time you want to run the exercise.
source /cvmfs/cms.cern.ch/cmsset_default.sh
cd CMSSW_4_2_8/src
cmsenv
Producing the pattuples
Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/ayrodrig/pattuples2010.git
cd pattuples2010
Run:
cmsRun PAT_data_repo.py
In this case the pattuples production was splitted in 6 executions per dataset (Mu and Electron); each runs over aprox. 500 files. An example of the partition is found in the Mu2010data* and Electron2010data* files.
