Running the main program

Call script pprun with as argument the name of a socalled resource file, containing the settings for the job (section 1.3). For example:

SCRIPTS/pprun test.rc

or, to write output to the screen (verbose):

SCRIPTS/pprun -v test.rc

Use pprun -h for more information.

A jobfile is now created in the current directory, with in the name the unique process id. In addition, a preprocessed resource file and a output file are created too:

pprun.12345.jb
pprun.12345.rc
pprun.12345.out

Depending on wether qsub is available or not, the job is submitted to the queue or just executed. Given settings in the rcfile, the job is able to resubmitted it selve after processing one day of the time loop.

The scripts automatically determine their absolute path. Thus, multiple versions might exist and run next to eachother without interference. DEFINE DIFFERENT SCRATCH DIRECTORIES IN THE RCFILE ! Otherwise, one version might remove the temporary data of other versions.
