Check the contents of AOD

$ checkxAOD.py xAOD.pool.root
$ checkMetaSG.py

Pick up events in a eventlist.txt from a AOD and put them into a new AOD.

$ acmd.py filter-files -s eventlist.txt inutAODFile -o outputAODFile

$ chainDump.py --rootFile=HIST_HLTMON_bla_bla.root > log.txt 2>&1

CMake

 $ mkdir sources   #this is the testarea
 $ mkdir build        # this is the compilation directory - lives below
 $ cd sources
 $ asetup devval,rel_2,here    #cmake build is dev + extra packages
 $ svnco -t TriggerMenu          #cmt co etc doesn’t work in the cmake build
 $ cd ../build
 $ cmake ../sources                #configures cmake build 
 $ make
 $ source x86_64-slc6-gcc49-opt/setup.sh    #adds locally checked out packages to

ART test

set up the ATLAS software
make your changes and compile
do your usual local test with Reco_tf.py
and then in addition, run the script corresponding to your format’s test, e.g.:

test_data18EGAM1.sh

Interactive access to xAOD

root [0] .x $ROOTCOREDIR/scripts/load_packages.C
root [1] f = TFile::Open(...);
root [2] t = xAOD::MakeTransientTree( f );
root [3] t->Draw( "Electrons.pt() - Electrons.trackParticle().pt()" );

Tag Collector

How to use Tag Collector
1) Go to https://ami.in2p3.fr/index.php/en/
2) Click on "TagCollector 2"
3) Packages will be listed at the bottom
4) Make sure a correct release is selected
5) Select package tag from the list
6) Hit "Update Tag (approval)" button
7) On the new screen put in a justification (what this fixed) and the JIRA ticked ID (here: ATR-xxxxx) in the last field called Bug Report
6) Hit submit.
