Finding Requests

Several ways of finding them:

SAM Web Page Usage

Example: Find all finished requests, with production=ttbar and decay=wenu+wenu. Note All entries must be in lower case!

Request ID: Hint: Use percent key (%)
for a wildcard.
Names are case-sensitive    
Request Status: ? finished
Job Name: mc%
User Name:
Work Group:
Number of Events:
Priority:
Parameter Type Parameter Value Parameter Category Data Tier:
Parameter 1: production ttbar
Parameter 2: decay wenu+wenu
Parameter 3:
Parameter 4:
Parameter 5:
Select only requests with 'not_archived' status?
Maximum rows of output: displaying per page
Select Output Format:
Execute Query:

 

Which returns the following ( a subset of the return)

RequestID JobName UserName WorkGroup NumberEvents RequestDetailID RequestStatus Priority EMail ArchiveStatus Comments
3176 mc iashvili top 5000
3128
finished 4   not_archived no comment
3179 mc iashvili top 5000
3131
finished 4   not_archived no comment
3782 mc perea top 5000
3729
finished 3   not_archived ttbar->ee

To find additional information ofn the requests select the button in the RequestDetailID and tunnel down an additional link for the complete metadata for a request. For example the full request details for request 3782 are
