General points:
Please focus on Run 3 if you can
Test test test!
How much space do you need?
At least for long exercises: make sure the space is used well, like installing one thing in one place and another thing in another space. No 100 GB AFS space available for participants :)
MS: preparations for the students
Check computing access
Grid certificate? Do they need it for an exercise? If so, should make sure beforehand they have a certificate
Recipe to have CMSSW libraries/src on eos https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/viewauth/CMS/HamburgWikiComputingLocal#Avoid_SCRAM_Projects_Spamming_Yo
Recommended default CMSSW version could be 14 sth (same that is recommended for combine), runs on everything Run 3
Include pre-exercise to set up CMSSW: includes gitlab ssh keys
Computing ressources:
Can we assure that everyone has a CERN account? Better to use special NAF accounts?
Aliya: during stat school, major issues with NAF ressources
Alex: last time, very poor support
Dominic: in pre-exercises, ask them to clean up home directory to get most of 10 GB space back
For each exercise, give an estimate of how much space needed → students might need to clear space on afs in between exercises
Combine (Kuan):
Aliya: ask students to install docker in pre-exercises
Good point: test the exercises beforehand!
ML (Joern, Matthias Komm)
Need priority access to GPUs, with SWAN notebooks
CERN can add temporary more, but needs to happen before the US wakes up at 3pm
Alexi wants to attend, try not to overlap with tau exercise
Code disentangled from CMSSW
Tracking (Jan, Marco, Brunella)
Tested exercises yesterday, lxplus is fine, runs at a minute per execution
Produce just 1 output file of a couple MB he thinks (< 1GB) and could use /tmp
e/gamma
Will change to Run 3 🙂 - general point as well
miniAOD
Use lxplus and swan
Ying (contract to Oct 31) and Alberto (but contract might be up, but will know by end of Sept) → best to find another facilitator
Not big output
Jets (Andreas Hinzmann)
Need 1-2 extra tutors: Patrick too busy on long exercise? Dennis?
Need to interface with Patrick on related long exercise
Output just plots don’t expect GBs
BTV (Phillip, )
Decided not to do ML, lxplus/SWAN sufficient
Taus (Alexei)
Based on nanoAOD
Run on 2022 data
Tested it yesterday
Run totally in notebooks, no prep for the students
Generators (Dominic)
Dont need to download madgraph beforehand
Brief Rivet intro, not covered by Aliya
All exercises on Tuesday (Dominic has shifts)
Mikel Morentin as 2nd facilitator, maybe can use another
Runs entirely on lxplus/with CERN account
REANA (Pallibi)
Within 2 hours
Previous exercise exists
Call the exercise “REANA (CAT)”
Gitlab CI/CD (Aliya)
Ask students to setup gitlab ssh keys in pre-exercise
Would benefit from another facilitator (Matthias: Lukas Ebeling, PhD student from UHH can help; in contact now with Aliya)
Call the exercise “Gitlab CI/CD (CAT)”
Call the exercise “Applying central corrections (CAT)”
Add to the pre-exerises:
Eduroam
Science hot spot also available, but may not be great
DESY guest network?
Set up the grid, can run a simple script
