If first time through the driver.csh, there could be lingering start_member or done_member files from the prior init_ensemble_var.csh run. Need to get rid of these or the driver.csh script starts transferring files that do not exist because WRF integration is not yet completed. There was a problem hiding this comment.

This commit changes some of the wrf shell scripting which extends outside the tutorial. I think it is OK and just a more simple way of linking the DART input.nml information to the WRF case. No rush on this. I think this is about as much as I want to change for foreseeable future. Thanks @mjs2369 for looking at this too. If everything looks OK please include in next DART release.

Learn more. @braczka I've looked over these changes and I agree that the WRF shell scripting needs to link ${RUN_DIR}/input.nml as opposed to ${TEMPLATE_DIR}/input.nml.template . I think this is ready to merge. But there's no rush on this release (the bug-fix that Helen implemented is developer code only), so I also think that we should wait for @mgharamti to take a look if he has the time. If not, we can just go ahead and release sometime next week. |

The setup.csh script was designed to apply ensemble member updates to the run directory input.nml, thus all WRF shell scripting (e.g. gen_retro_icbc.csh, init_ensemble_var.csh, new_advance_model.csh etc) should link or copy the run directory input.nml, not the input.nml located in the template directory. This is now consistent with the WRF tutorial instructions. |

I had major trouble running tutorial without this check to make sure there were no pre-existing start_member and done_member diagnostic files that existed during first run through of
driver.csh.
There was a tendency for these diagnostic files to exist already from prior execution ofinit_ensemble_var.csh
. This led to file transfers to begin withindriver.csh
before the WRF integrations were complete.
