redirectring output

Hello,I have a couple of questions about writing the application output:1) Is there any way to turn off completely writing any output in the end of the run? I'm using CESM1_0_5 and I noticed that even if I set all the output settings in the env_run.xml file to FALSE I still get some files written in the run directory. For instance, pop1024.pop.hv.nc and pop1024.pop.h.once.nc. Since I am measuring execution time of the app it became quite a problem because this files are being written to the PFS and it messes up completely my timing results (I get big deviation in runtime between identical executions).2)  Is it possible to redirect writing the restart file without modifying the code? I would like to write it not to the $RUNDIR but to the local drive. I want to avoid writing anything to the PFS. thanks in advance for any help,
Tatiana

To turn off the *pop.hv* file, modify the pop2 input namelist such that    var_viscosity_outfile = 'unknown_var_viscosity_outfile'To turn off the *pop.h.once* file, change the thrid element of the tavg_file_freq_opt array from 'once' to 'never'. To turn off the *pop.rh.* files (restart history files), change all of the elements of the tavg_file_freq_opt array to 'once' in the pop2 input namelistSee the CESM documentation for how to modify the pop2 model input namelists.
 
hi again,
could you please also point to which parameter should I modify to change where the coupler restart file is written? I tried adding  "restart_file  = '/tmp/rest'" in ./Buildconf/cpl.buildnml.csh in the section where the drv_in file is generated but it didn's seem to work as pop1024.cpl.r.0001-01-04-00000.nc is still being written to the rundir. I don't see any other parameter that would look like what I need....
 
*bumpThis is becoming really frustrating. I just can't make CESM write the restart files where I need it to write them. For instance, I try to change the ouput path for CAM:
1) I modified ./Buildconf/cam.buildnml.csh by adding ( I don't mind if the restart file gets overwritten every time)cat >! atm_in
