I wanted to generate events for a series of values of Higgs mass. Here are the files: This is my condor job file myjob.cmd. The last line of the job file Queue 10 creates 10 condor jobs. The variable $(Process) runs from 0..9.

initialdir = /a/home/karthur/apenson/testarea/13.0.40/AtlfastII/WprWZqqee_mass
Executable = myjob
Arguments = "$(Process)"
Requirements = (Machine == "karthur.nevis.columbia.edu")
#Output = myjob.out.$(Process)
Error = myjob.err
#Log = myjob.log.$(Process)
should_transfer_files = IF_NEEDED
when_to_transfer_output = ON_EXIT
Queue 10

This is my executable myjob. Its argument is the $(Process) variable. The expr function converts this into a mass (in GeV). The sed function then creates a temporary joboptions file from the master file CSC.00xxxx.WprWZqqee.py. The csc_* scripts generate events using AtlfastII
