CESM wont restart after running l_archive script on Bluefire

[whannah]

I decided do go back and continue a simulation that I thought I was finished with. I noticed the restart files were still in the case directory on ptmp, so I thought it would be a simple restart. Here is what shows up:

poe.stdout.xxxxxx:
ccsm_getenv error
poe.stderr.xxxxxx
can't open file: env_build.xml
can't open file: env_case

I changed the RESUBMIT and STOP_N variables in env_run.xml. I also needed to change the account number in the run script since I had run out of GAU in the initial allocation.

Does it make sense that either of these changes could have caused the problem I am seeing?

Turns out this was related to the home directory transition from /blhome/ to /glade/home/, and nothing to do with the archiving or variables changes. Here are the steps I used to correct the issue:

1. edit the hard-coded path in $case$.bluefire.run
2. use xml_change to edit the env_case.xml file

./xmlchange -file env_case.xml -id CCSMROOT -val /glade/home/$username$/CESM/cesm1_0_3

./xmlchange -file env_case.xml -id CASEROOT -val /glade/home/$username$/CESM/$case$

3. copy the modified env_case.xml file to into the LockedFiles, overwriting env_case.xml.locked


After making these changes the model was back to running just fine.
