ARCHER2
Unified Model on ARCHER2
Getting Started
Several setup steps are required before running the UM for the first time on ARCHER2:
For those that have never run the UM before:
- Register for an ARCHER2 account.
- Register for a PUMA account by contacting the CMS Team.
- Setup your PUMA and ARCHER2 environments by following the set up instructions in our online training.
For those that have previously run the UM on ARCHER:
- Register for an ARCHER2 account.
- Setup your ARCHER2 environment. Ensure you have the following line in your
~/.bash_profileon ARCHER2:
. /work/y07/shared/umshared/bin/rose-um-env
Note: the path change from ARCHER.
UMDIR (umshared)
All UM data and software is installed centrally under /work/y07/shared/umshared.
UKCA input files that used to be under /work/n02/n02/ukca on ARCHER now reside under /work/y07/shared/umshared/ukca.
Users may set UMDIR in their ~/.bash_profile but remember that batch jobs can’t see /home and therefore will not source any scripts that reside there.
Standard Suites
CMS maintain a number of standard suite configuations on ARCHER2. All standard suites available are detailed on the UM Configurations page.
Porting a suite from ARCHER to ARCHER2
See the porting page for instructions on how to port a UM suite or UMUI job to ARCHER2. Example suites that CMS have already ported can also be found on this page.
