Running GEOS-5: Change location of restarts

The <code>umask 022</code> is not strictly necessary, but it will make the various files readable to others, which will facilitate data sharing and user support.  Your home directory <code>~''USERID''</code> is also inaccessible to others by default; running <code>chmod 755 ~</code> is helpful.

Copy the restart (initial condition) files and associated <code>cap_restart</code> into ''EXPDIR''.  You can get an arbitrary set of restarts by copying the contents of the directory <code>/archive/u/aeichman/restarts/Heracles-4_0/c48/19800309</code>, containing 2-degree cubed sphere restarts from March 9, 1980, and their corresponding <code>cap_restart</code>.  If you are unfamiliar with the way that the <code>/archive</code> filesystem works, keep in mind that a <code>cp</code> from there might appear to stall while the tape is loaded -- see the NCCS documentation for details.   
Copy the restart (initial condition) files and associated <code>cap_restart</code> into ''EXPDIR''.  You can get an arbitrary set of restarts by copying the contents of the directory <code>/discover/nobackup/mathomp4/Restarts-H10/nc4/Reynolds/c48</code>, containing 2-degree cubed sphere restarts from April 14, 2000, and their corresponding <code>cap_restart</code>.   


The script you submit, <code>gcm_run.j</code>, is in ''HOMEDIR''.  It should be ready to go as is.  The parameter END_DATE in <code>CAP.rc</code> can be set to the date you want the run to stop.  Submit the job with <code>sbatch gcm_run.j</code>.  You can keep track of it with <code>qstat</code> or <code>qstat | grep ''USERID''</code>, or follow stdout with <code>tail -f ''EXPDIR''/slurm-''JOBID''.out</code>, ''JOBID'' being returned by <code>sbatch</code> and displayed with <code>qstat</code>.  Jobs can be killed with <code>qdel ''JOBID''</code>.
