The SCM source code is extracted and installed alongside OpenIFS. Thus, if not done already, to install the SCM please follow the instructions detailed in Getting started to install OpenIFS.
In short the , once the source code is extracted and installed from from https://sites.ecmwf.int/openifs/openifs-data/src/48r1/openifs-48r1.tar.gz, then the code can be built using the following:
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
# load the OpenIFS and SCM environment variables source /path/to/file/location/oifs-config.edit_me.sh # using our installation example: # source $HOME/openifs-48r1.1/oifs-config.edit_me.sh # change to the home directory for OpenIFS and SCM cd $OIFS_HOME # Use the openifs-test.sh script to build and automatically test OpenIFS and the SCM $OIFS_TEST/openifs-test.sh -cbt |
...
- The location and name of the executable for the SCM is are defined in the platform configuration file (oifs-config.edit_me.sh) as
$SCM_EXEC

The untarred SCM package is small, ~45 Mb and data produced by a standard individual SCM simulation is also low. However, if I user is planning to perform many simulations and store the data, which is often the case, the disk space usage can become large. If this is the plan, then a user may need to consider installing the SCM test-case package on a larger disk area than |
