Nesting suite u-by395

Hello,

I’m trying again with the nested suite from the rmed tutorial* (my copy is u-cu785), but I’m getting an error message when I try to run. I don’t think it’s even submitted to Archer as /cylc-run/u-cu785 hasn’t been created.

I get a stop sign and a log error which is:

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? I’m following the instruction in the tutorial to point to specific startdump and ancillary files, is it maybe that I can’t use these? I’m not sure from the log info above what the error is

Thanks for your help

You are trying to login to archer not archer2
(ssh -oBatchMode=yes -n login.archer.ac.uk…)
As far as I can see, that job has not been ported to archer2

Anna - you might just need the archer2 branch of the suite

specifically, I would use the vn12.0 version:
https://code.metoffice.gov.uk/trac/roses-u/browser/b/y/3/9/5/archer2_um12p0

Thanks very much Grenvillie and David. I think that was the branch I managed to get running during the course.

There’s a few things I’m not clear about regarding the _um12p0 branch (my copy is u-cu454) . Under suite conf → nesting suite → driving model setup, the dm_config options go up to GA7.2. Similarly, under Nested region 1 setup → resolution 1 → config 1 setup the default is RA2, though there seem to be some RA3 ‘candidate’ options. Is there any way to use more recent configurations? I ask as we’re keen to use as up-to-date a version as possible, and it was suggested to me that for that I would want to be using GA9 and RA3. Or do you know of other branches which have been ported to archer2?

Thanks for your help,
Anna
