CVMFS at Manchester
Cern virtual machine file system is now available to use at Manchester, which allows to use
ATLASLocalRootBase
. This can be used to use all ATLAS tools (ATLAS releases, grid tools etc). So far it is only available on tony.
ATLAS Releases
To set up an ATLAS release do:
source $ATLAS_LOCAL_ROOT_BASE/user/atlasLocalSetup.sh
asetup 18.0.0,noTest
For older releases (that were not built on SL6), you need to add the slc5 flag:
asetup 17.2.7,slc5
Grid tools
To use e.g. dq2 (recommended not to do this in a shell with athena setup):
source $ATLAS_LOCAL_ROOT_BASE/user/atlasLocalSetup.sh
localSetupDQ2Client
Or for panda tools:
source $ATLAS_LOCAL_ROOT_BASE/user/atlasLocalSetup.sh
localSetupPandaClient
ROOT
You can get lots of different modern ROOT versions via cvmfs, to see them:
source $ATLAS_LOCAL_ROOT_BASE/user/atlasLocalSetup.sh
localSetupROOT --help
Then to setup a specific version:
source $ATLAS_LOCAL_ROOT_BASE/user/atlasLocalSetup.sh
localSetupROOT 5.34.10-x86_64-slc6-gcc4.7
