You probably don't have to work through this entire page and you can stop and any point, please talk to you adviser or mentor to see what's appropriate. The material you are most likely need to use comes first, followed by more in-depth tutorials for people who will be spending years on mu2e and learn to do more complex work.

From time to time we will hold in person tutorials.  See
[https://mu2einternalwiki.fnal.gov/wiki/In_Person_Tutorials In Person Tutorials] on the Mu2e internal wiki.
==Reporting Errors or Ambiguities==
If you find errors or ambiguities in these tutorials, including the accompanying written material, please report them using the issue tracker on the Mu2e/Tutorial GitHub page: https://github.com/Mu2e/Tutorial .  The issue button is second from the left on the top of the page.  To report an issue you need to [[GitHubWorkflow#Make_your_Own_GitHub_Account_and_Join_the_Mu2e_GitHub_Organization | join the Mu2e GitHub Organization]].




==Prerequisites==
==Prerequisites==
In this tutorial we will assume you are familiar with the following topic
*the [[LearnAboutMu2e|mu2e detector]], the parts, what they do, and how they work
* the basics bash shell commands on a linux system
* familiar with c++ code concepts and syntax
* familiar with HEP [[ComputingStart|offline concepts]]
<span style=color:red>provide links to external references</span>


Have you completed the Mu2e [[Day 1 CheckList]]?  If not, please do so.


==Authentication==
If you have not already done so, please sign up for these slack channels:
* tutorial-questions - ask questions about the tutorials here
* computing_and_software - the annoucements and general discussion list
* is_it_me_or_a_bug - ask questions and about anything except the tutorials.


You login to the mu2e interactive machines with '''kerberos''' authentication.  You will need a permanent ID called a kerberos "principal" which is looks like "your_username@FNAL.GOV".  (You will have one username for all computing purposes at Fermilab.)  You will have a password associated with your principal. You will use this principal and password to log into the various personal linux desktops located at Fermilab or to ssh into the collaboration interactive machines from your home institution.  You typically re-enter your kerberos authentication every day.
In this tutorial we will assume you are familiar with the topics below. They are not hard prerequisites.  You don't need to master this material before you start but we recommend that you skim it and learn where to look up information when you need it:
* The [[LearnAboutMu2e|Mu2e detector]]
** Have a basic idea of the Tracker, Calorimeter and Cosmic Ray Veto System (CRV)
* [https://mu2e-docdb.fnal.gov/cgi-bin/sso/ShowDocument?docid=1120 Units and Coordinate Systems Used by Mu2e Offline]
* [[Computing Concepts|Concepts needed to understand Mu2e computing]]
** Understand, On-spill, off-spill, Event, EventId, Digi, Hit, Track, Cluster, Reconstruction, Simulation
* [[UPS to Spack Transition]]
* bash shell commands
** [[Shells#Beginner_Cheat_Sheet | Beginner Cheat Sheet]]
** [[LinuxFAQ|Linux FAQ]] - includes links to suggested references
* The basics of C++.  See [[CppFAQ#What_C.2B.2B_References_are_Recommended.3F | suggested C++ references]].


The second identity you will need is the '''services''' principal, which looks like your_username@services.fnal.gov, or often just your_username, and also has a password (different from your kerberos password).  You will need this identity to log into Fermilab email, the servicedesk web site and some other services based at the lab.  You would typically only use this authentication at the point you log into the service.


The third identity you will need is a '''CILogin certificate'''.  This "cert" is the basis of authentication to the mu2e documents database, the computing farms, and a few other services.  You will use this cert in two ways.  The first way is to load it into your browser, which then gives you access to web pages and web services.  The second is by using your kerberos authentication to access a copy of your certificate maintained in a remote database.  You get this certificate once and then renew it only once a year.  
When you do these exercises you will start on your local computer and log in to one of the Mu2e interactive machines, which are sometimes called the "central machines".
The software you will use is on these machines and you will do your work on these machines.  You will be working at a terminal window and typing commands at a prompt.  The editors available on these machines are: vi, vim, emacs and nedit.  If this way is working is not familiar to you, contact a colleague to help get you started.


hypernews is an archived blog and email list - for access here, you will need both a hypernews password and your services password!
==A Convention You will See==


Finally, the mu2e internal web pages require a collaboration username and password, please ask your mu2e mentor.
You will sometimes see an instruction that says something like.  "To check that this step worked correctly, do"
> echo $PRODUCTS
/cvmfs/fermilab.opensciencegrid.org/products/common/db
The right arrow character represents the shell prompt and you should type everything to the right of that character at the prompt in your working shell.  The expected output of that command is known on the following lines.  There may be many lines of output.  If the output that you see is that same as shown in the example, then everything is working.  If the example output contains a version number or a timestamp, it's OK if your output has different values, unless, of course, the example is there explicitly to check the version number.

==Interactive logins==
Mu2e has 6 machines that you can use for the tutorials: mu2egpvm01 ... mu2egpvm06. For purposes of this tutorial these machines are identical and they all mount the same disks, including your home disk.  You can start on one machine and restart on another.  Pick one and log in.  Last I checked Fermilab security policy broke the automatic load balancer so we need to load balance by hand.  If your machine is slow for more than a few minutes, try another.
Collaborators can do interactive computing work in several places. Probably the best place to start is the collaboration's interactive '''linux''' machines at Fermilab.  The disks that the user sees are located on specialized disk server hardware and the same disks are mounted by all the interactive machines. There are five quad-core machines named mu2egpvm01.fnal.gov through mu2egpvm05.fnal.gov.  You will have an account and a home area here (the same home area is on all machines) and some disk space for data.  We prefer using the bash shell for all purposes.
 
Collaborators can also compile and run mu2e code on their linux desktops or laptops.
You login to the mu2e interactive machines using your kerberos principal, "your_username@FNAL.GOV".  If you need a refresher on kerberos vs SSO, revisit [[Day_1_CheckList#Computer_Accounts | the Day 1 Checklist]].


When ready, you can read more about the  , the [[Disks|disks]], [[Shells|bash shell]], and how to get the code [[CodeDistribution|distribution]] from the code disk, or copied to a desktop, laptop or remote institution.
* To login, follow the instructions at: [[LoginTutorial]].
* Work through the rest of the page to setup your login scripts, and explore the disks that are available.
* If your find ambiguities or errors in the above, let us know on tutorial-questions channel.

==Ntuple==
The data from the detector, and the reconstructed data, is stored in files in '''art''' format.  Accessing this data generally requires compiling code and learning a special configuration language, so we will save that for a later tutorial.  To simplify, and speed up access to the data, we often run a program to copy a small part of the data in the art file into a convenient format call a root ntuple.  This format is easy to browser interactively and make histograms.  The ntuple file may contain histograms that were already made, or a list of the tracks in each event along with interesting quantities, such as the number of hits on the track or its reconstructed momentum.

The main program that is used for simulation, reconstruction and analysis is Mu2e Offline. This is built on top of, art an event processing framework in which the data passes through a series of modules to perform a variety of tasks.

Introduction

This page is intended for physicists who are just starting to work in the mu2e computing environment. The following is a broad overview of the major components, their terminology, and how you might use them. Following each into paragraph, here are links into more specific tutorials and the rest of the mu2e documentation which is more terse and is intended as a reference once you get through the introductory material.

You probably don't have to work through this entire page and you can stop and any point, please talk to you adviser or mentor to see what's appropriate. The material you are most likely need to use comes first, followed by more in-depth tutorials for people who will be spending years on mu2e and learn to do more complex work.

From time to time we will hold in person tutorials. See In Person Tutorials on the Mu2e internal wiki.

Reporting Errors or Ambiguities

If you find errors or ambiguities in these tutorials, including the accompanying written material, please report them using the issue tracker on the Mu2e/Tutorial GitHub page: https://github.com/Mu2e/Tutorial . The issue button is second from the left on the top of the page. To report an issue you need to join the Mu2e GitHub Organization.


Prerequisites

Have you completed the Mu2e Day 1 CheckList? If not, please do so.

If you have not already done so, please sign up for these slack channels:

  • tutorial-questions - ask questions about the tutorials here
  • computing_and_software - the annoucements and general discussion list
  • is_it_me_or_a_bug - ask questions and about anything except the tutorials.

In this tutorial we will assume you are familiar with the topics below. They are not hard prerequisites. You don't need to master this material before you start but we recommend that you skim it and learn where to look up information when you need it:


When you do these exercises you will start on your local computer and log in to one of the Mu2e interactive machines, which are sometimes called the "central machines". The software you will use is on these machines and you will do your work on these machines. You will be working at a terminal window and typing commands at a prompt. The editors available on these machines are: vi, vim, emacs and nedit. If this way is working is not familiar to you, contact a colleague to help get you started.

A Convention You will See

You will sometimes see an instruction that says something like. "To check that this step worked correctly, do" 

> echo $PRODUCTS
/cvmfs/fermilab.opensciencegrid.org/products/common/db

The right arrow character represents the shell prompt and you should type everything to the right of that character at the prompt in your working shell. The expected output of that command is known on the following lines. There may be many lines of output. If the output that you see is that same as shown in the example, then everything is working. If the example output contains a version number or a timestamp, it's OK if your output has different values, unless, of course, the example is there explicitly to check the version number.

Interactive logins

For purposes of this tutorial these machines are identical and they all mount the same disks, including your home disk. You can start on one machine and restart on another. Pick one and log in. Last I checked Fermilab security policy broke the automatic load balancer so we need to load balance by hand. If your machine is slow for more than a few minutes, try another.

You login to the mu2e interactive machines using your kerberos principal, "your_username@FNAL.GOV". If you need a refresher on kerberos vs SSO, revisit the Day 1 Checklist.

  • To login, follow the instructions at: LoginTutorial.
  • Work through the rest of the page to setup your login scripts, and explore the disks that are available.
  • If your find ambiguities or errors in the above, let us know on tutorial-questions channel.

Here are some references to know about. You don't need to master them now.


Ntuple

The data from the detector, and the reconstructed data, is stored in files in art format. Accessing this data generally requires compiling code and learning a special configuration language, so we will save that for a later tutorial. To simplify, and speed up access to the data, we often run a program to copy a small part of the data in the art file into a convenient format call a root ntuple (pronounced "en-tuple"). This format is easy to browser interactively and make histograms. The ntuple file may contain histograms that were already made, or a list of the tracks in each event along with interesting quantities, such as the number of hits on the track or its reconstructed momentum.
