launching simulation with runcase using XML parameter file
Posted: Sun Jan 12, 2014 6:23 am
According to the user guides for version 2.0 and 3.0, it is possible to use the XML parameter file created from the GUI to launch a simulation from the shell (without the GUI). The runcase file gives a barebones launch example. When launching a simulation with the runcase file, is it necessary to have copied any of the Fortran script files into the SRC directory? I am not setting any parameters in the Fortran files. The parameters set through the xml are sufficient for my needs.
For context, I'm building a system to automate many simulations with differing mesh files and some changes in parameters. I'd like to be able to have a template XML parameter file which is copied into each new case data directory and then modified for that new case. The system will then launch the simulation through a shell. There will be no user interaction beyond creating the first template XML file and starting the system.
