Data recorded in 2016 and published in 2024Environment Condition CMS CERN-LHC
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/106X_mcRun2_asymptotic_v17.db runtime.
106X_mcRun2_asymptotic_v17.db is to be used with the proton-proton simulated data at 13 TeV from 2016.
See further information in the guide to CMS condition database.
For condition data to be used with 2016 CMS simulated datasets see:
Condition data for 2016 CMS proton-proton collision data at 13 TeV
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.
