Baselines are similar to the input data directory in that there should ideally be one of them per machine, per compiler that all the ACME E3SM developers on that machine can read from. There only needs to be, for example, one baseline made from ACME E3SM v0.2 and the pgi compiler on Titan. The data sizes can get large because history files are kept for all components for dozens of (short) runs. All ACME E3SM developers on Titan can then compare against those baselines if they expect their changes to be BFB.
Baselines should be updated when an answer-changing or namelist-changing modification has been made to master. That should be obvious to anyone following github comments but we may need another way to broadcast it. Local developers then have to know the new path for the baseline to compare against. How this will be managed is all still being worked out.Note: Baselines will accumulate over time so there needs to be some rule for how many to keep. CSEG has settled on the 5 most recent (beta) tagsAll baselines have a name associated with name, so the full baseline path will be $BASELINE_ROOT/$baseline_name. The default name will be the current branch. Machines for which we maintain baselines as part of the nightly process should have up-to-date baselines for next and master branches.
The first run of acme_developer can generate baselines, all subsequent runs should compare against these baselines
- cd <ACME>/cime/scripts
- ./create_test acme_developer -g-g \[ -b chg_baseline_name \] \[--wait\]
- cd <testroot>

- Note: The wait_for_tests script requires a minimum python version number of 2.7.
- All tests should pass
