#37590 looks like a potential candidate for the cause

#37590 looks like a potential candidate for the cause

Yes, but I think the solution is not really to modify the content of #37590
but to modify the wf 1001.2

Right now it uses 2017 data
https://github.com/cms-sw/cmssw/blob/master/Configuration/PyReleaseValidation/python/relval_production.py#L15
but I think that should be moved to use the 2021 data (which then will have the needed collection this issue is reporting)

Sorry what's the plan to fix this?
If the PCC workflow is not appropriate for 2017 can't it just be removed?
Or even better, why is it not customized for different inputs as a function of the era?

[tvami]

In the end I resolved it inside the AlCa jurisdiction by not adding this stream to the allForExpress

[mmusich]

@tvami I think #37712 might be also a viable solution, allowing you to remain with one list for all eras.

[tvami]

Yes, that's nice, thanks Marco!
