compile_7_6_7.readme.txt

The following are instructions on how to set up and compile the code on 
an sl7 cms workgroup server on lxplus or at DESY, 
with CMSSW_7_6_7 (2015 data and MC) using slc6.

  open a "fresh" xterm window on your sl7 machine at DESY or CERN:
xterm &
  or
ssh lxplus.cern.ch

once (1st time only, might only be needed later to access files for running):
---------------------
install grid certificate (userkey.pem) in .globus
set permissions to _r_______

every time:
-----------
   initialize cms grid proxy: 
   (can do later, might need to repeat later if proxy expired)
voms-proxy-init -voms cms
give passphrase

   at DESY only (no action needed on lxplus):
   initialize cmssw environment:
module use -a /afs/desy.de/group/cms/modulefiles
module load cmssw

   start sl6 singularity shell:
   at DESY:
cmssw-cc6 --bind /nfs:/nfs
          the latter is for access to the local disk area /nfs/dust
   on lxplus:
cmssw-cc6

   check release (optional):
Singularity> cat /etc/redhat-release
           -> CentOS release 6.10 (Final)
   set cms defaults:
Singularity> source /cvmfs/cms.cern.ch/cmsset_default.sh
   check compiler version (optional):
Singularity> echo $SCRAM_ARCH
           -> slc6_amd64_gcc700  
   (might be reset to slc6_amd64_gcc483 upon cmsrel later)

once (first time only):
----------------------- 
   on the top directory in which you would like to install the code,
   (dot *not* mkdir the CMSSW directory beforehand) 
   create the CMSSW 7_6_7 environment:
cmsrel CMSSW_7_6_7 
   (ignore potential "Release ... is not available" error message)
   this will create the corresponding directory with subdirectories

every time:
-----------
cd CMSSW_7_6_7/src

    make sure you have access rights to CERN git.
    (if you do not have them yet the git clone command will give an error)
    e.g., for access via your CERN kerberos token:
kinit "yourCERNusername"@CERN.CH

once (first time only):
-----------------------
    in the src directory, set up .../CMSSW_7_6_7/src/NanoAOD/NanoAnalyzer/:
git clone https://:@gitlab.cern.ch:8443/cms-opendata/cms-opendata-nanoaodplus/nanoaodplus_v1.git NanoAOD/NanoAnalyzer

every time
----------
cd NanoAOD/NanoAnalyzer
   here you will now find the content of
   https://gitlab.cern.ch/cms-opendata/cms-opendata-nanoaodplus/nanoaodplus_v1
   technically, the NanoAnalyzer is a so-called EDAnalyzer
   (originally set up with mkdanlzr)

whenever you want to update the code to the latest version (not first time) 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
git pull

   compile for use on AOD:
scram b

   or instead compile for use on miniAOD:
scram b USER_CXXFLAGS="-DminiAOD"
