It assumes that you have already run the model as described in [[Icarus 2.0 Quick Start]]. | ||

where ''TAGNAME'' is the model "tag" (version). A tag in <code>cvs</code> marks the various versions of the source files in the repository that together make up a particular version of the model. A sample release tag is <code>Icarus- | where ''TAGNAME'' is the model "tag" (version). A tag in <code>cvs</code> marks the various versions of the source files in the repository that together make up a particular version of the model. A sample release tag is <code>Icarus-2_0</code>, indicating the latest patch of version Icarus 2.0 for general use. ''DIRECTORY'' is the directory that the source code tree will be created. If you are using a stock model tag it is reasonable to name the directory the same as the tag. This directory determines which model in presumably your space a particular experiment is using. Some scripts use the environment variable <code>ESMADIR</code>, which should be set to the absolute (full) pathname of this directory. | ||
When a modified version of some component of the model is saved to the repository, the tag it uses -- different from the standard model tag -- is supposed to be applied at most only to the directories with modified files. This means that if you need to use some variant tag of a gridded component, you will have to <code>cd</code> to that directory and update to the variant tag. So, for example, if you needed to apply updates to the SatSim gridded component, you would have to <code>cd</code> several levels down to the directory <code>GEOSsatsim_GridComp</code> and run | When a modified version of some component of the model is saved to the repository, the tag it uses -- different from the standard model tag -- is supposed to be applied at most only to the directories with modified files.

A cleanly completed model run will leave a set of restarts and the corresponding <code>cap_restart</code> in its experiment directory. Another source is <code>/discover/nobackup/mathomp4/Restarts-H10/nc4/</code> which are sample restarts for various resolutions and oceans on 2000-04-14 21z. Restarts are also left during runs in date-labeled tarballs in the <code>restarts</code> directory under the experiment directory before being transferred to the user's <code>/archive</code> space. You may have to create the <code>cap_restart</code>, which is simply one line of text with the date of the restart files in the format ''YYYYMMDD HHMMSS'' (with a space). | A cleanly completed model run will leave a set of restarts and the corresponding <code>cap_restart</code> in its experiment directory.
