Getting Started with ATLAS

Basic Infrastructure

• KARMAROOTRA
• Get full TWiki access
• Get a local PPE account set up (ignore the information on setting up Athena locally for now)
• Pointers for external access
• Get CERN and ATLAS computing accounts and get an lxplus account
• Aquiring a Grid Certificate
• Setting up Grid Certificate
• To get access to the grid - Go to the "Join a VO"section - ATLAS in this case
• Setting Up UI On Your Own Machine Ignore GANGA
• Getting access to the local grid cluster (continued) - skip to section 2
• ScotGrid Best Practice Guide - useful information for running on the grid
• Setting up dq2 access on the local grid cluster

Running ATLAS software at CERN

AGENDA -Atlas Offline Tutorial 21-23 Oct 2009 - Link to the agenda.

• Day 1- the basics Exercises and setup for running offline software (linked at the end of the first talk on the agenda above).

ATLAS Computing WorkBook - For Full Instructions

• Setting up your ATLAS software (CMT bootstrap procedure and how to run an Athena helloworld algorithm)
• Running the full simulation process
• Using a Monte Carlo event generator
• Creating hits in the detector
• Adding pile up error/run time/voltages etc to the simulated hits in the detector
• Attempt to rebuild the generated data
• Produce AOD with Athena
• Produce fast simulation AOD
• Reading your AOD
