Are many 140.X workflows intentionally not processing any Events? #44563

Open makortel opened 3 months ago

makortel commented 3 months ago

In https://github.com/cms-sw/cmssw/issues/44413 it was noticed that at least workflows 140.X where X is 004, 006, 007, 008, 009, 011, 021 do not process any Events. While this was great to uncover the problem investigated in https://github.com/cms-sw/cmssw/issues/44413, a question remains if that was intentional, or if these workflows were intended to process Events?

Hi Matti, I really doubt this was intentional at the time of their introduction. So:

  1. I'm having a look to have them better defined;
  2. given the accidental usefulness of this kind of wfs would anyway makes sense to keep one of them with the explicit intention to check these unusual conditions? This time intentionally.

I think keeping one such "no events" workflow would indeed be useful.
