Tutorial Session Goal
This tutorial will show you how to work within the Mu2e Offline computing environment.
Docker vs the Mu2e Interactive Machines
Most of you will do the tutorial exercises from within a Docker container on your own laptop. Much of the documentation linked below was written for people doing essentially the same activities when logged into the Mu2e interactive machines. The following link describes the correspondence between the Docker environment and the environment found on the Mu2e interactive machines.
Session Prerequisites and Advance Preparation
Look through the Getting Started wiki page. Not all of those links are live.
This provides a tour the interactive machines, authentication, and disks. You do not need the docker image, but you do need to log onto the central Mu2e interactive machines.
Session Introduction
Mu2e Offline is a collection of code and scripts used for simulation, reconstruction and analysis of Mu2e data. Offline is kept in a git repository. It depends on external software provided through cvmfs (Cern virtual machine file system). Users interact with Offline in several ways, with more or less of the code resident in your local working area. to link the slides to the session page. This tutorial will cover the basic structure of Offline, and show you how to create the local environment to work with Offline.
Please work through the following page
This is an introduction to offline code checkout and build.
