Missing GEN-SIM in wf 11723.17

[silviodonato]

#32222 had recently added worklow 11723.17. The workflow is crashing in the IB test because the GEN-SIM is missing (see https://cmssdt.cern.ch/SDT/html/cmssdt-ib/#/relVal/CMSSW_11_3/2020-12-17-2300?selectedArchs=slc7_amd64_gcc900&selectedFlavors=X&selectedStatus=failed)
In other words, because dasgoclient --limit 0 --query 'file dataset=/RelValQCD_Pt_1800_2400_14/CMSSW_11_2_0_pre8-112X_mcRun3_2021_realistic_v10-v1/GEN-SIM' has no results.

Unfortunately we don't have any boosted/highPt GEN-SIM for Run-3 in the matrix.

@cms-sw/pdmv-l2 what do you suggest to do? Could you generate the missing sample? Shall we modify https://github.com/cms-sw/cmssw/blob/master/Configuration/PyReleaseValidation/python/relval_steps.py to get the already-existing /RelValQCD_Pt_1800_2400_14/CMSSW_11_2_0_pre6-112X_mcRun3_2021_realistic_v7-v1/GEN-SIM?

Hello @silviodonato, why do you need RelVals from 11_2_0_pre8 the only pre-release that we recycled GEN-SIM (from 11_2_0_pre7)? That's why you can't find any results from this release. You can pick any other pre-releases for GEN-SIM but not pre8. Hope this helps.

[silviodonato]

Hi @chayanit , the release (11_2_0_pre8) is taken from this line https://github.com/cms-sw/cmssw/blob/master/Configuration/PyReleaseValidation/python/relval_steps.py#L3222 that was updated by #32140.
I don't know there is a way to select pre7 only for 11723.17.
Btw. I temporarily solved the problem with #32548, ie. using TTbar instead of QCD 18000-2400

[chayanit]

Ah right. I forgot about the GEN-SIM we produced particularly. Do you want to have the missing GENSIM QCD 18000-2400? I can submit it.

[silviodonato]

This issue is now "merged" with #32592. However, I keep this issue open as a reminder to move from TTbar_14TeV to QCD_Pt_3000_3500_14 as soon as #32592 is done (see #32548 for more details).

@silviodonato missing GENSIM is produced FYI.

Thanks @chayanit I've made #32635
