the DQM configs still use EDM format instead of DQMIO, but I don't see a problem

[mmusich]

@cmsbuild please test

[cmsbuild]

The tests are being triggered in jenkins.

Also here, please move to condDBv2:

from Configuration.AlCa.autoCond_condDBv2 import autoCond
 process.GlobalTag.globaltag=autoCond['run2_mc']

The code changes are satisfactory.
There are few issues related to consuming new condition DB backend. Not problematic, as they are only in tests, but to be fixed in another PR: we suggest @bsunanda to review all the test files and make one PR with all changes therein.

This pull request is fully signed and it will be integrated in one of the next CMSSW_7_5_X IBs unless changes (tests are also fine). This pull request requires discussion in the ORP meeting before it's merged. @davidlange6, @nclopezo, @smuzaffar
