Hi all,
My first question is mainly to Stefano concerning running analysis macros on GRID.
For eta_c channel produced results are located in /panda/user/p/pbarprod/tdr11/output/sig/run201/
in 500 folders in each for 1000 events.
And for example in folder /2/ there is a output file
evt_pid_stt_r201_2.root
And my problem is how to manage those file names to use them as an input in my analysis macro. From the http://panda-wiki.gsi.de/cgi-bin/view/Computing/TDR11 I understood that Stefano tried to manage it producing collection. But I cannot understand by myself how it helps here. So my question is if there are exists a working example how to manage file names for analysis. Is it done in .jdl file or should it be done in .sh script which runs root macro?
I have a backup solution to run my macro locally but I would like to try to run it on GRID when data will be produced.
And another partially related technical question on which I couldn't find an answer is how to run alien on GSI machine.
I tried to install alien at GSI in my private directory but have the following error:
------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------
But I assume that there is already alien installation at GSI and I should only properly set a path, since by default another application "alien" from /usr/bin/alien is running. Anybody have a solution how to do it?

Hi Dima,
At the moment, better run it locally on your machine. We have still some troubles to move the data around on the grid, so that the active computing nodes can pick up jobs properly.
I will forward your second question to Kilian.... I can already tell you that alien v2.18 cannot be installed there, and one should use alien v2.17 in stead. But I am sure that that is already available...
Johan.
