Hi everyone
I am new in the community and going to run WACCM_D. Is there any example run available to get started?
How I can find out which compsets and grids should I use in this case?
I really appreciate your helps.

The CAM6 user guide is here: CAM6 User’s Guide — camdoc documentation

WACCM6 compsets are listed in a table here: 4. Atmospheric configurations (compsets) — camdoc documentation

This user guide has not been updated for recent releases. To list all compsets that are available in a given CESM2 tag that you have checked out, go into the source code to cime/scripts and type:

./query_config --compsets

You can filter this to see only WACCM compsets by piping it to grep for "%W":

./query_config --compsets | grep %W

This works because all WACCM compsets have a longname string that includes "%W". To restrict to only WACCM-D compsets, grep for %WCMD:

query_config --compsets | grep %WCMD

FWmadHIST : HIST_CAM60%WCMD_CLM50%SP_CICE%PRES_DOCN%DOM_MOSART_CISM2%NOEVOLVE_SWAV
FWmadSD : HIST_CAM60%WCMD%SDYN_CLM50%SP_CICE%PRES_DOCN%DOM_MOSART_SGLC_SWAV
FW4madHIST : HIST_CAM40%WCMD_CLM40%SP_CICE%PRES_DOCN%DOM_RTM_SGLC_SWAV
FW4madSD : HIST_CAM40%WCMD%SDYN_CLM40%SP_CICE%PRES_DOCN%DOM_RTM_SGLC_SWAV

These should all work out of the box for the f09_f09_mg17 grid, which is 0.95° latitude x 1.25° longitude. It should be possible to run also at half that resolution (f19_f19_mg17), but the WACCM-D compsets are not set up to run out of the box at that resolution.
