Condition data for 2015 CMS proton-proton simulated 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_mcRun2_asymptotic_RunIIFall15DR76_v1.db runtime.

76X_mcRun2_asymptotic_RunIIFall15DR76_v1 is to be used with the simulated 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.
