Submit CRAB jobs using CATTools

1. This is based on crab3

• no need to change configurations since jobs are stored all in remote servers
• make sure crab3 is setup first

source /cvmfs/cms.cern.ch/crab3/crab.sh

2. Using submitCrab3.py

• This script can be used to pass CRAB configuration parameters from the command line depending on the Dataset lists are located on MC/ or RD/ directories for data type.

2-1. Usage

submitCrab3.py -n <requestName> -i <inputFile> -s

To submit jobs add in '-s', without -s, just the job submission command is displayed

2-2. Example

• If we want to submit cattuple ttbar and diboson datasets.

cd $SRT_CMSSW_BASE_SCRAMRTDEL/src/CATTools/CatProducer/prod/crab
submitCrab3.py -i MC/ttbar_dilepton.txt -n catTooltest -s

2-3.Submitting jobs

• because the jobs only saved in local storage (where the job was done) we need to get the output manually.
• this has the benefit of crab jobs not failing due to transfer errors
• to get the output use "crab out -t " or the script below

python getcrabOut.py
