#SetUpEnv1
---++ Recipe for the tutorial
For this tutorial we will refer to !CMS software:

   * *CMSSW_5_3_11*

and we will use an already prepared CMSSW analysis code to analyze the sample:

  <!-- * The tutorial will focus on the basic workflow using the dataset: _/RelValBeamHalo/CMSSW_5_2_5_cand1-START52_V9-v1/GEN-SIM-DIGI-RAW_  (MC dataset) and _/SingleMu/Run2012B-TOPMuPlusJets-PromptSkim-v1/AOD_ (real data): [[#RealData][CRAB configuration file for real data with lumi mask]] -->

   * The tutorial will focus on the basic workflow using the dataset: _/RelValProdTTbar/JobRobot-MC_3XY_V24_JobRobot-v1/GEN-SIM-DIGI-RECO_  (MC dataset) and _/SingleMu/Run2012B-13Jul2012-v1/AOD_ (real data): [[#RealData][CRAB configuration file for real data with lumi mask]] 

We will use the central installation of CRAB available at CERN:
   
<!--    * *CRAB_2_8_1* -->
   * *CRAB_2_9_1* 

The example is written to use the _csh_ shell family. If you want to use the Bourne Shell replace _csh_ with _sh_.

%ENDSYNTAX%

#SetUpEnv
---++ Setup local  Environment  and prepare user analysis code 

In order to submit jobs to the Grid, you *must* have an access to a LCG User Interface (LCG UI). It will allow you to access WLCG-affiliated resources in a fully transparent way. LXPLUS users can get an LCG UI via AFS by:
<verbatim class="command">
source /afs/cern.ch/cms/LCG/LCG-2/UI/cms_ui_env.csh
</verbatim>

Install CMSSW project in a directory of your choice. In this case we create a "TESTfirst " directory:

<verbatim class="command">
mkdir TEST
cd TEST
cmsrel CMSSW_5_3_11
#cmsrel is an alias of scramv1 project CMSSW CMSSW_5_3_11
cd CMSSW_5_3_11/src/ 
cmsenv
#cmsenv is an alias for scramv1 runtime -csh
</verbatim>

For this tutorial we are going to use as CMSSW configuration file, the tutorial.py:

%SYNTAX{ syntax="python"}%
import FWCore.ParameterSet.Config as cms
process = cms.Process('Slurp')

process.source = cms.Source("PoolSource", fileNames = cms.untracked.vstring())
process.maxEvents = cms.untracked.PSet( input       = cms.untracked.int32(10) )
process.options   = cms.untracked.PSet( wantSummary = cms.untracked.bool(True) )

process.output = cms.OutputModule("PoolOutputModule",
    outputCommands = cms.untracked.vstring("drop *", "keep recoTracks_*_*_*"),
    fileName = cms.untracked.string('outfile.root'),
)
process.out_step = cms.EndPath(process.output)
%ENDSYNTAX%

#SetUpCRABEnv
---++ !CRAB setup

%BLUE%Setup on lxplus:%ENDCOLOR%

In order to setup and use !CRAB from any directory, source the script =crab.(c)sh= located in =/afs/cern.ch/cms/ccs/wm/scripts/Crab/=, which always points to the latest version of !CRAB.  After the source of the script it's possible to use !CRAB from any directory (typically use it on your CMSSW working directory).
<verbatim class="command">
source /afs/cern.ch/cms/ccs/wm/scripts/Crab/crab.csh
</verbatim>

*Warning*: in order to have the correct environment, the order to source env files has always to be 
   * source of UI env
   * setup of CMSSW software
   * source of !CRAB env 

#LocateCfg
---++ Locate the dataset and prepare !CRAB submission

In order to run our analysis over a whole dataset, we have to find first the data name and then put it on the =crab.cfg= configuration file.


#SelectData
---+++ Data  selection

To select data you want to access, use the *DAS* web page where available datasets are listed [[https://cmsweb.cern.ch/das/][Data Aggregation Service (DAS)]] .
For this tutorial we'll use : 
<!-- /RelValBeamHalo/CMSSW_5_2_5_cand1-START52_V9-v1/GEN-SIM-DIGI-RAW -->
 %SYNTAX{ syntax="sh" style="width:200"}%
/RelValProdTTbar/JobRobot-MC_3XY_V24_JobRobot-v1/GEN-SIM-DIGI-RECO
 (MC data)
%ENDSYNTAX%
   * Beware: datasets availability as sites changes with time, if you are trying to follow this tutorial after the date it was given, you may need to use another one

#SetConfiguration
---++ !CRAB configuration

Modify the !CRAB configuration file =crab.cfg= according to your needs: a fully documented template is available at =$CRABPATH/full_crab.cfg=, a template with essential parameters is available at =$CRABPATH/crab.cfg=. The default name of configuration file is =crab.cfg=, but you can rename it as you want.

*Copy one of these files in your local area*. 

For guidance, see the list and description of configuration parameters in the on-line [[http://cmsdoc.cern.ch/cms/ccs/wm/www/Crab/Docs/crab-online-manual.html][CRAB manual]]. For this tutorial, the only relevant sections of the file are  =[CRAB]=, =[CMSSW]= and =[USER]= .

#MainConfiguration
---+++ Configuration parameters
The list of the main parameters you need to specify on your =crab.cfg=:
   * *pset*: the CMSSW configuration file name;
   * *output_file*: the output file name produced by your pset; if in the !CMSSW pset the output is defined in !TFileService, the file is automatically handled by !CRAB, and there is no need to specify it on this parameter;
   * *datasetpath*: the full dataset name you want to analyze;
   * <i><b>Jobs splitting</b></i>: 
      * By event: only for MC data. You need to specify 2 of these parameters: *total_number_of_events*, *number_of_jobs*, *events_per_job*
         * specify the _total_number_of_events_ and the _number_of_jobs_: this will assign to each job a number of events equal to _total_number_of_events/number_of_jobs_
         * specify the _total_number_of_events_ and the _events_per_job_: this will assign to each job _events_per_job_ events and will calculate the number of jobs by _total_number_of_events/events_per_job_;
         * or you can specify the _number_of_jobs_ and the _events_per_job_;
      * By lumi: real data require it. You need to specify 2 of these parameters:  *total_number_of_lumis*, *lumis_per_job*, *number_of_jobs*
         * because jobs in split-by-lumi mode process entire rather than partial files, you will often end up with fewer jobs processing more lumis than expected. Additionally, a single job cannot analyze files from multiple blocks in DBS. So these parameters are "advice" to CRAB rather than determinative.
         * specify the _lumis_per_job_ and the _number_of_jobs_: the total number of lumis processed will be _number_of_jobs_ x _lumis_per_job_
         * or you can specify the _total_number_of_lumis_ and the _number_of_jobs_
         * *lumi_mask*:  the filename of a JSON file that describes which runs and lumis to process. CRAB will skip luminosity blocks not listed in the file.
   * *return_data*: this can be 0 or 1; if it is one you will retrieve your output files to your local working area;
   * *copy_data*: this can be 0 or 1; if it is one you will copy your output files to a remote Storage Element;
   * *local_stage_out*: this can be 0 or 1; if this is one your produced output is copied to the closeSE in the case of failure of the copy to the SE specified in your crab.cfg  
   * *publish_data*: this can be 0 or 1; if it is one you can publish your produced data to a local !DBS; 
   <!-- * *use_server*: the usage for crab server is deprecated now, so by default this parameter is set to 0; -->
       <!-- one of the available servers will be used depending on the client release; -->
   * *scheduler*: the name of the scheduler you want to use;
   * *jobtype*: the type of the jobs.

#SeCopy
---++ Run CRAB on CMS.MonteCarlo data copying the output to a Storage Element
The chance to copy the output to an existing *Storage Element* allows to bypass the output size limit constraint, to publish the data on a local !DBS and then to easily re-run over the published data.
In order to make !CRAB copies to a Storage Element you have to add the following information on the Crab configuration file:
   * that we want to copy our results adding *copy_data=1* and *return_data=0* (it is not allowed to have both at 1);
   * add the *official CMS site name* where we are going to copy our results; the name of official CMS sites can be found in the [[https://cmsweb.cern.ch/sitedb/sitelist/][siteDB]]

<!--#Conf1-->
---+++ !CRAB configuration file for CMS.MonteCarlo data
You can find more details on this at the corresponding link on the [[https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/SWGuideCrabFaq#How_to_store_output_with_CRAB_2][CRAB FAQ page]].

The !CRAB configuration file (default name crab.cfg) should be located at the same location as the !CMSSW parameter-set to be used by !CRAB with the following content:

%SYNTAX{ syntax="sh"}%
[CMSSW]
total_number_of_events  = 10
number_of_jobs          = 5
pset                    = tutorial.py
datasetpath             =  /RelValZMM/CMSSW_5_3_6-START53_V14-v2/GEN-SIM-RECO

output_file              = outfile.root

[USER]
return_data             = 0
copy_data               = 1
storage_element        = T2_xx_yyyy (to change with the CMS name of site where you can write outputs)
user_remote_dir         = TutGridSchool

[CRAB]
scheduler = remoteGlidein
jobtype                 = cmssw
%ENDSYNTAX%

#SetRunCrab
---+++Run Crab
Once your =crab.cfg= is ready and the whole underlying environment is set up, you can start running !CRAB.
!CRAB supports command line help which can be useful for the first time. You can get it via:
<verbatim class="command">
crab -h
</verbatim>


#JobCreation
---+++ Job Creation
The job creation checks the availability of the selected dataset and prepares *all* the jobs for submission according to the selected job splitting specified in the crab.cfg

   * By default the creation process creates a !CRAB project directory (default: crab_0_date_time) in the current working directory, where the related crab configuration file is cached for further usage,  avoiding  interference with other (already created) projects

   * Using the [USER] _ui_working_dir_ parameter in the configuration file !CRAB allows the user to chose the project name, so that it can be used later to distinguish multiple !CRAB projects in the same directory.

<verbatim class="command">
crab -create  
</verbatim>
that takes by default the configuration file called crab.cfg associated for this tutorial with MC data.

The creation command could ask for proxy/myproxy passwords the first time you use it and it should produce a similar screen output like:

<!--

#JobSubmission
---+++ Job Submission

With the submission command it's possible to specify a combination of jobs and job-ranges separated by comma (e.g.: =1,2,3-4), the default is all.
To submit all jobs of  the last created project with the default name, it's enough to execute the following command:
<verbatim class="command">
crab -submit 
</verbatim>
to submit a specific project:
<verbatim class="command">
crab -submit -c  <dir name>
</verbatim>

which should produce a similar screen output like:

#JobOutputRetrieval
---+++ Job Output Retrieval
For the jobs which are in the "Done" status it is possible to retrieve the log files of the jobs (just the log files, because the output files are copied to the Storage Element associated to the T2 specified on the crab.cfg and infact return_data is 0).
The following command retrieves the log files of all "Done" jobs of the last created !CRAB project:
<verbatim class="command">
crab -getoutput 
</verbatim>
to get the output of a specific project:
<verbatim class="command">
crab -getoutput -c  <dir name>
</verbatim>

the job results (CMSSW_n.stdout, CMSSW_n.stderr and crab_fjr_n.xml) will be copied in the =res= subdirectory of your crab project:

<verbatim style="font-size: 13px" class="output">

The stderr is an empty file, the stdout is the output of the wrapper of your analysis code (the output of CMSSW.sh script created by CRAB) and the crab_fjr.xml is the FrameworkJobReport created by your analysis code.

#CrabReport
---+++ Use the -report option

Print a short report about the task, namely the total number of events and files processed/requested/available, the name of the dataset path, a summary of the status of the jobs, and so on. A summary file of the runs and luminosity sections processed is written to res/. In principle -report should generate all the info needed for an analysis.

The message "The summary file inputLumiSummaryOfTask.json about input run and lumi isn't created" isn't an error but a message that means input data didn't provide lumi section info, as expected for the MC data.

The full srm path will allow you to know where your data has been stored and to perform operations by hand on it. As example you can delete the data using *srmrm* command and check the content of the remote directory through *srmls*. In this case the remote directory is:

%SYNTAX{ syntax="sh"}%
srm://srm-eoscms.cern.ch:8443/srm/v2/server?SFN=/eos/cms/store/user/fanzago/TutGridSchool_test
%ENDSYNTAX%

It could be necessary to substitute the ? with the "?" in the srm path, depending on the shell you are using.  Additional srm commands include =srmrm=, =srmrmdir=, =srmmv=, for moving files within an srm system, =srmcp= which can copy files locally.  Note that to copy files locally, =srmcp= may require the additional flag "-2" to ensure that the version 2 client is used.

#CopyData
---+++ Copy the output from the SE to the local User Interface
Option that can be used only if your output have been previously copied by CRAB on a remote SE.  By default the -copyData copies your output from the remote SE to the local CRAB working directory (under res). Otherwise you can copy the output from the remote SE to another one, specifying either -dest_se=<the remote SE official name> or -dest_endpoint=<the complete endpoint of remote SE>. If dest_se is used, CRAB finds the correct path where the output can be stored. The command to execute in order to retrieve locally the remote output files to your local user interface is:
<verbatim class='command'>
crab -copyData 
## or crab -copyData -c <dir name>
</verbatim>

#CrabPub
---+++ Publish your result in DBS
The publication of the produced data to !DBS allows to re-run over the produced data that has been published. The instructions to follow are below, and here is the link to the [[https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/SWGuideCrabForPublication][how to]].
You have to add to the Crab configuration file more information specifying that you (will) want to publish and the data name to publish.
%SYNTAX{ syntax="sh"}%
[USER]
....
publish_data            = 1
publish_data_name       = what_you_want
....
%ENDSYNTAX%
Warning: 
   * All the parameters related publication have to be added in the configuration file before creation of jobs, even if the publication step is executed after retrieving of job output.
   * Publication is done in the phys03 instance of DBS3. If you belong to a !PAG group, you have to publish your data to the !DBS associated to your group, checking at the [[https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/DBSInstanceAccessList][DBS access twiki page]] the correct !DBS url and which role in voms you need to be an allowed user.
   * Remember to change the _ui_working_dir_ value in the configuration file to create a new project (if you don't use the default name of crab project), otherwise the creation step will fail with the error message "project already exists, please remove it before create new task ".

---+++ Run Crab publishing your results
You can also run your analysis code publishing the results copied to a remote Storage Element.
Here below an example of the !CRAB configuration file, coherent with this tutorial:

*For MC data* (crab.cfg) 
%SYNTAX{ syntax="sh"}%
[CMSSW]
total_number_of_events  = 50
number_of_jobs          = 10
pset                    = tutorial.py
datasetpath             = /RelValZMM/CMSSW_5_3_6-START53_V14-v2/GEN-SIM-RECO
output_file              = outfile.root

[USER]
return_data             = 0
copy_data               = 1
storage_element         = T2_xx_yyyy
publish_data            = 1
publish_data_name       = FanzagoTutGrid

[CRAB]
scheduler               = remoteGlidein
jobtype                 = cmssw
%ENDSYNTAX%

And with this =crab.cfg= you can re-do the complete workflow as described before, plus the publication step:
   * creation
   * submission
   * status progress monitoring
   * output retrieval
   * publish the results

#PublishData
---+++ Use the -publish option

After having done the previous workflow untill the retrieval of you jobs, you can publish the output data that have been stored in the Storage Element indicated in the =crab.cfg= file using:
<verbatim class="command">
   crab -publish
</verbatim>
or to publish the outputs of a specific project:
<verbatim class="command">
   crab -publish -c <dir_name>
</verbatim>
It is not necessary that all the jobs are done and retrieved. You can publish your output at a different time.

It will look for all the CMS.FrameworkJobReport files ( crab-project-dir/res/crab_fjr_*.xml ) produced by each job and will extract from there the information (i.e. number of events, LFN, etc.) to publish.

Warning: Some versions of CMSSW switch off the debug mode of crab, so a lot of duplicated info can be reported at screen level.

---++++ Analyze your published data
First note that:
   * !CRAB by default publishes all files finished correctly, including files with 0 events
   * !CRAB by default imports all dataset parents of your dataset

You have to modify your =crab.cfg= file specifying the datasetpath name of your dataset and the dbs_url where data are published (we will assume phys03 instance of DBS3):
%SYNTAX{ syntax="sh"}%
[CMSSW]
....
datasetpath = your_dataset_path
dbs_url = phys03

The creation output will be something similar to:

#RealData
---++ Run !CRAB on real data copying the output to an SE
Running !CRAB on real data has no major difference with running !CRAB on CMS.MonteCarlo data. The main difference is related on the configuration preparation for the !CRAB workflow, as showed in the next section.

<!--#Conf2-->
---+++ !CRAB configuration file for real data with lumi mask
You can find more details on this at the corresponding link on the [[https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/SWGuideCrabFaq#How_to_store_output_with_CRAB_2][Crab FAQ page]].

The !CRAB configuration file (default name crab.cfg) should be located at the same location as the !CMSSW parameter-set to be used by !CRAB.
<!-- The dataset used is: _/Mu/Run2010A-Nov4ReReco_v1/RECO_  -->

#JobOutputRetrieval2
---+++ Job Output Retrieval
For the jobs which are in the "Done" status it is possible to retrieve the log files of the jobs (just the log files, because the output files are copied to the Storage Element associated to the T2 specified on the crab.cfg and infact return_data is 0).
The following command retrieves the log files of all "Done" jobs of the last created !CRAB project:
<verbatim class="command">
crab -getoutput 
</verbatim>
to get the output of a specific project:
<verbatim class="command">
crab -getoutput -c  <dir name>
</verbatim>

the job results will be copied in the =res= subdirectory of your crab project:

<verbatim  style="font-size: 13px" class="output">

To create a task to analyze the missing lumis of the original lumiMask you can use the missingLumiSummary.json file as new lumiMask.json file in your crab.cfg.
As before, you can decide the split you want, and using the same publish_data_name the news outputs will be published in the same dataset of previuosly task

and submit them as usual. The created jobs will analyze part of the missing lumi of the original lumiMask.json file. 
   * If you select total_number_of_lumis = -1 instead of lumi_per_job or number_of_job, the new task will analyze all the missing lumi.

#JustSe
---++ Run Crab retrieving your output (without copying to a Storage Element)

You can also run your analysis code without interacting with a remote Storage Element, but retrieving the outputs to your workspace area (under the res dir of the project).
Here below an example of the !CRAB configuration file, coerent with this tutorial:
%SYNTAX{ syntax="sh"}%
[CMSSW]
total_number_of_events  = 100
number_of_jobs          = 10
pset                    = tutorial.py
datasetpath             =  /RelValZMM/CMSSW_5_3_6-START53_V14-v2/GEN-SIM-RECO
output_file              = outfile.root

[USER]
return_data             = 1

[CRAB]
scheduler               = remoteGlidein
jobtype                 = cmssw

%ENDSYNTAX%

And with this crab.cfg in place you can re-do de workflow as described before (a part of the publication step):
   * creation
   * submission
   * status progress monitoring
   * output retrieval (in this step you'll be able to retrieve directly the real output produced by your pset file)
