These are instructions for adding HEPG files to the DFC database... 

0) We are assuming you are starting with a large number of HEPG files on some 
machine, and that you have access to the cdfmc account. If you need to create 
the HEPG files, take a look at http://hep.uchicago.edu/cdf/comphepfarms.txt. 
We further assume you are running MC you got from /pnfs/patriot. 

1) Copy all the HEPG and STDHEP files to the appropriate /pnfs/patriot 
directory. This means they need to be on fcdfsgi2, and a good place for that 
would be:

/cdf/data02/s5/mc/cdfmc/your-process/

Once you do this, you can delete the STDHEP files (as they are usually huge). 

2) The HEPG files need to be added to the database. There is a simple script 
and .tcl file which will do this easily. So copy ~cdfmc/dbinput.csh and 
~cdfmc/files.tcl to the directory containing the HEPG files. You need to edit 
files.tcl to make sure the path is set correctly. 

I would output the files to their own directory. This is b/c of the next step.

Once files.tcl has been edited, run dbinput.csh. This will add the files to 
the database (http://cdfdbb.fnal.gov:8520/cdfr2/databases). You might do a 
look up by file name on a file or two this script creates, just to make sure 
they are in the database:

Select Data Catalog & submit
Select DC: Files & submit
Enter a mc*gene filename in the 2nd box & submit (note that there should be 
no extraneous spaces after or before the name...)

They will be "orphan" files, but the next step will take care of that...

3) Next copy the script ~cdfmc/writeTape to the directory containing the *gene 
files and run it. This script writes the *gene files to tape and adds them 
to the appropriate book and filesets in the database.

4) That's it. Your files are now in the database. To run Simulation on the 
Farms, email Frank (fkw@fnal.gov) and tell him the run number to process...

If you have any questions email me (collin -- cwolfe@hep.uchicago.edu).
