Hi,  
I’m trying to modify and run a UKESM suite (u-cy933) on ARCHER2 submitting from PUMA2.  
I’ve tried to follow all the steps in the documentation page.  
It has succeeded with the fcm make tasks and the install\_ancil task, but the coupled task is saying poll failed.  
Any advice as to what the issue is would be gratefully received.  
Thanks  
Andrew

The coupled task is in the queue - maybe there is some comms failure between puma2 and archer2. Try stopping the suite with the restart will follow up on orphaned tasks option and then rose suite-restart.

Hi Grenville,  
Thanks for the reply - it seems to be working OK now.  
I had set the HPC-queue to “lowpriority” which may have been the issue - as soon as I set this to “standard” it submitted and started running.  
Thanks,  
Andrew
