UM Nesting Suite: re-using LBC files

[dsergeev]

Hi,

I've got a small question about running the UM Nesting Suite on MONSooN: how to set up the Suite so that I can run the nested (LAM) model without rerunning the global one, i.e. using LBC data created by a previous run?

I've tried using *alabc_??? files that I copied from ~/cylc-run/u-ae616/share/cycle/20130324T1200Z/NorwegianSea/km2p2/ukv_default/lbcs/ to MOOSE (see the screenshot attached), but the job install_glm_lbcdata_001 failed with

WARNING: ignoring bad site config /work/home/fcm/cylc-6.11.2/conf/global.rc:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    end = next(i for i in hours if i >= args.end_hour)

Am I using the right files?

Hi Denis

Did you check the help for dm_ic_file and dm_lbs_files — there is some explanation of file names which be useful.

Posting S. Webster's reply here for future references:

The LBC data needs to be the LBC creation data generated by the original driving model run, not the LBC file that the LAM reads in.

Also the start dump needs to be the reconfigured start dump generated by the original driving model run, i.e. NOT the original analysis, which is likely to be missing various fields that have been added in recent times.

In a nutshell, dm_ic_file should be glm_astart, and dmc_lbc_files should be umglaa_cb???. So in my case, my rose-suite.conf contains

dm_ic_file="moose:/adhoc/projects/accacia/deser/u-ae616/YYYYmmddTHHMMZ/glm/ics/glm_astart"
dm_lbc_files="moose:/adhoc/projects/accacia/deser/u-ae616/YYYYmmddTHHMMZ/glm/um/umglaa_cb???"

Thanks for this.
