Search for MC-Data

• Available on d0minox, for the moment in private area ~herber/request.py
• ~herber/request.py
  
• First do required setups
  setup sam_python
  setup oracle_instant_client
  setup cx_Oracle
  
• Check a help
  
• Warning! - for the moment wild cards are not usable, you have to know exact syntax
• The search is done in the request Oracle DB table, works only for SAM v7
• Allows to get list of requests based on different constraints, e.g. on the production and/or decay channel, as well as detailed information about each request
• Simple Examples
  • if you know your reqID and you want to know all parameters the request was created with:
    ~herber/request.py request_id=85436
  • Find requests with production t+t+0lp exclusive, decay channel: 2l+2nu+2b_n.unw
    ~herber/request.py generated.production=t+t+0lp generated.decay=2l+2nu+2b_n.unw
  • Whenever you want only a summary list: add to the above command line:
    report=summary
  • Do you want a list of request IDs produced for top group with software release version p20.09.02 and submitted in the year 2008?
    ~herber/request.py work_grp_name=top reconstructed.d0release=p20.09.02 created_on_or_after=2007/12/31 report=summary

Monte Carlo Catalog C.Biscarat, S. Muanza

• Step 1: information about request IDs is retrieved from SAM and stored on disk in ASCI files
  
• Step 2: these files feed web pageis, providing maximum amount of information about all request IDs

  Request ID List Maker (REILM) from S. Muanza

• this script makes list of requests IDs according the physics search constraints based on the "generated" or "fome" parameter categories
  e.g. all ttbar samples produced with p17.09% release and top mass m=170 GeV
  
• The usual SAM wild cards (%) are allowed, search is done in the fome or generated DB tables
  
• script can be run on cluedO and expects at least 5 input arguments; first one compulsory contain the full 'fome%' or 'generated%' substrings.
  
• The script accepts an arbitrary number of additional arguments in the form of a "SAM Keyword" "Requested Value" the SAM Keyword must exist and be in the fome or generated data tier (along the choice of the 1st field).
• to run the request do the following setups:
  setup sam -O python
  setup python v2_4_2_sam (or another 2.4 version)
  
• Example:
  
• python ~muanza/sam_scripts/Step3_v1_0.pyc 'fome%' 'p20.09.02' 'alpgen' 't+t%' '2l+2nu%'
