  NERSC Directory Change Notice  

Due to project's name change at NERSC from 'ACME' to 'E3SM' and NERSC’s file system update, the directory  '/project/projectdirs/acme/' is now '/cfs/cdirs/e3sm'

NERSC

DECK v1 simulation original model output has been archived on NERSC HPSS using zstash. See below for some examples on how to retrieve files using zstash. For a more information, refer to the zstash documentation. Please contact Zeshawn Shaheen (Unlicensed) for help with zstash. The table below lists output location for the various simulations. Note that some archives initially contained a few corrupted files. These problems have all been corrected.

Known bad data

Some users have reported errors when trying to extract from HPSS archive. The cause of the bad data is currently unknown; possibilities include a bug in zstash or data file being corrupted to/on HPSS.

Retrieving data with zstash

Below are some basic examples on how to retrive retrieve DECK output data on NERSC. You can retrieve directly from NERSC Edison or Cori machinesmachine, but you may see for better performance if you log in we strongly recommend login to one of the NERSC DTN nodesDTNs (data transfer nodes: dtn<01…04>.nersc.gov). The examples below assume that you have installed a conda environment with the latest version of zstash (see zstash quickstart guideexample below relies on the E3SM unified environment. Alternatively, you can also install zstash in your own conda environment (see zstash documentation).

Activate environment

If you are using bash shell:

Code Block
languagebash
source activate zstash/global/cfs/cdirs/e3sm/software/anaconda_envs/load_latest_e3sm_unified.sh

If you are using csh shell:

Code Block
languagebash
source /global/cfs/cdirs/e3sm/software/anaconda_envs/load_latest_e3sm_unified.csh

Examples

Retrieve selected cam.h0 files from piControl

...

Code Block
languagebash
zstash extract --hpss=/home/g/golaz/2018/E3SM_simulations/repaired/20180129.DECKv1b_piControl.ne30_oEC.edison "*.cam.h0.00[3-6]?-??.nc"

where /home/g/golaz/2018/E3SM_simulations/repaired/20180129.DECKv1b_piControl.ne30_oEC.edison is the path on HPSS listed in the table above, and "*.cam.h0.00[3-6]?-??.nc" is a matching pattern to select all cam.h0 files between years 0030 and 0069, enclosing it in double quotes avoids shell level substitution.
