Condition data for 2015 CMS proton-proton collision data at 13 TeV

Description

Condition database includes non-event-related information (Alignment, Calibration, Temperature, etc.) and parameters for simulation/reconstruction/analysis software.

These files are needed when running a CMSSW job on the open data environment (VM or container), and they are available in the /cvmfs/cms-opendata-conddb.cern.ch file system. They are automatically read from /cvmfs/cms-opendata-conddb.cern.ch/76X_dataRun2_16Dec2015_v0.db runtime.

76X_dataRun2_16Dec2015_v0 is for the full event range of both for RunC and RunD 2015 collision data.

See further information in the guide to CMS condition database.

Characteristics

How to use?

If you are using the CMS Virtual Machine image or the CMS container image environments, then the condition data files will be served automatically from /cvmfs/cms-opendata-conddb.cern.ch/ or from a file server at runtime, and therefore you do not need to download these files. If you need to have them locally, you can download them from here.
