Change of plans for the first session.

Hight throughput discussion, Requirement for the machine

  • ne11 2.5 deg  watercycle experiment, need input files, compsets, maping files, easily 2 weeks work if it is high priority, 
  • Todd, ok, but no intention to use as a scientific run
  • Mark, ne11  is the lowest reasonable resolution to be earth-like
  • land - can you do ne11 case, Phil - they need land domain file and they can do that, who can do the domain file? 
  • Mark, Andy - we also need 10 deg for fast testing to catch the bugs 
  • Mark - if we do one case, we should do two together, 10 deg and 2 deg, extremely low res for SE and very low for scientists
  • requirement – 40 years per day on the yet to be defined system that we will buy
  • less then 300 cores, 40 years per day
  • Chris notes on Edison – problems with the machine unrelated to the code, so there is not good enough support of the machine
  • Chris would like to automatically kill the hang up job and have another job ready to run, so we do not wait in the queue
  • We need stable machine environment, 
  • need routinely run tests that the code runs on the LCF
  • failing exact restart, we did not know about it for some time, comprehensive tests would help with that.
  • Chris - edison is an interesting machine, it works for some time, then stops and no one knows why 
  • another use is to have the machine for fixing the current failure on the low res coupled model that needs to be fixes urgently
  • what's the time and effort for the two requirements

  • Dave - someone will use the super low case and use it for science, we should not release this case code, we could mark it clearly as only for testing
