LUXSimUsingHTCondor

Submit HTCondor Jobs

In order to use the computing resources at Wisconsin, one can submit HTCondor jobs to run simulation

ssh <username>@lzlogin01.hep.wisc.edu

# Make a valid voms-proxy
voms-proxy-init --voms=lz --valid=142:00

# Run farmout script to submit jobs
# To get help about options 
 # python  /cvmfs/lz.opensciencegrid.org/sw/bin/farmoutGeneric.py -h

#The above python scipt generates job file using your input macro. \
#  It uses the shell script to run LUXSim and copy your output to LZ storage area.

Files in the storage area

• Some events are available in the Wisconsin LZ storage area and can be accessed using the following command :

  xrdfs g22n02.hep.wisc.edu:31094 ls /lz/user/tapas/LZSim/pmt-Co_gdecay_1_pro_sci_ioni_drift/
  xrdfs g22n02.hep.wisc.edu:31094 ls /lz/user/tapas/LZSim/pmt-Co_gdecay_1_pro_sci_ioni_drift_gammma100KeV

• copy the files using xrdcp

  xrdcp -d 1 -v \
   root://cmsxrootd.hep.wisc.edu//lz/user/tapas/LZSim/pmt-Co_gdecay_1_pro_sci_ioni_drift_gammma100KeV/filename.root .
