Compile the model as usual using fcm:
cd $OIFS_HOME/make
fcm make -v -j 6 -f oifs.fcm
The code should compile without errors when using CCE compilers. Make sure the binaries will later not be accidentally overwritten by any future compiler runs; we save them in a custom directory:
mv cce-opt v2ac-rc_cce-optopt (optional)
Run the acceptance tests
The model package offers various tests to check the basic functionality of the model and to verify that all paths to the data directories are correct and accessible.
These tests are run on a T21 full Gaussian grid and are designed to require a minimum of computational resources. Several different tests are being offered which activate different pathways in the model source code. It is highly recommended to carry out these prior to using the model.
Step-by-step
To check the model is working normally carry out the various acceptance tests in $OIFS_HOME/t21test and t21test_xios_t255ac. This requires editing the wrapper scripts job.sh and setup-exp.sh by setting the path to the appropriate master.exe and by changing RUNCMD to to something appropriate for the platform.
