Number of nodes specification

Hi,

What argument can I put in config_machines (or where applicable) to restrict the number of nodes. When I do ./preview_run, I find out it is automatically assigned based on the compset and resolution. How do I restrict it? I know there is an option to change it in .case.run before the submission, but that is not the most convenient way to do it. Is it?

Hi Peter,

In config_pes.xml you can specify a machine name to set the number of nodes you want to use.

<grid name="a%1.9x2.5.+l%1.9x2.5.+oi%gx1">
<mach name="derecho">
<pes pesize="any" compset="any">
