Cheyenne: change default project when building case?

I was using yellowstone before, where to set the default project name when building CESM I could simply put the project script, say PXXXXXX, into a file .cesm_proj in the home directory.  Then the project name would be picked up and put into my batch script automatically.  Is there an equivalent way to do this when building CESM on Cheyenne?  Thanks for the help!

It depends more on the model version than on the system you are using.  If you are using the same model version as you were using on yellowstone the same method should work.  If you are using a newer version of CESM you can either set the environment variable PROJECT=Pxxxxx or you can create a $HOME/.cime/config file with the following contents:[main]PROJECT=Pxxxxxx

You are right, I had updated my CESM version and that was what was actually causing it.  Adding     setenv PROJECT Pxxxxxto my .tcshrc fixes the problem.  Thanks for the help!
