Instructions for submitting to CMS AnaOps from the UAF

The CMS AnaOps cluster is exposing a HTCondor-C interface that can be used to submit jobs directly from the UAF.

HTCondor-C is really just another Grid flavor in HTCondor-G, so if you submitted to Grid resources before, it is just a minor change.

The magic lines to use are:

Universe = grid 
Grid_Resource = condor cmssubmit-r1.t2.ucsd.edu glidein-collector.t2.ucsd.edu 
x509userproxy=<path to your proxy>  

Additionally, you have to add the list of sites you want to run at.

For example, this will limit you to UCSD:

+remote_DESIRED_Sites="T2_US_UCSD" 

To just be able to run at the UAF's:

+remote_DESIRED_Sites="UAF" 

While this will allow your job to run at several US T2s:

+remote_DESIRED_Sites="T2_US_UCSD,T2_US_Wisconsin,T2_US_Nebraska,T2_US_Caltech" 

More details about HTCondor-C specifics can be found in the HTCondor manual.
